And you know who I also don’t condemn?

The IRA

The Viet Minh

John Brown

Haitian slaves who revolted

Native American fighters

Black Panthers

National Liberation Front (Algeria)

Nelson Mandela

The 26th of July Movement

Every one of them were called “terrorists” or something equivalent at some point. Now think about who’s on the opposite of this list. Apartied South Africa, slavers, settlers, Zionists, the US government… There is only one moral and just side to be on and it’s not even a discussion.

    Nelson Mandela is a good historical figure to bring up in this context. Liberals love him for his rehabilitated image as a peace negotiator, but he didn’t go to prison for writing letters to the editor.

    peaceful protest? yeah hooray let me march with you haha

    UH ERM VIOLENCE? THAT’S NOT THE RIGHT WAY TO GET THINGS DONE !!!1!!!1

    all it takes to piss off a liberal is telling them that actual real change doesn’t happen with signing petitions and holding hands. no government gives a single shit or fuck about your lip service and will continue to steamroll oppressed groups regardless
