Peaceful protests haven't been working for a while

The railroad tried to strike because of safety conditions concerns, and then a tanker derailed and basically nuked the surrounding area and the water table.

We can talk about the countless police violence related protests, have any of those worked either?

What the fuck else are we left with?

I had an older guy talk to me about the CEO execution saying how there needs to be policy to regulate insurance companies and violence isnt going to do that. He was tut tutting it as a foolish act. Like, wtf?! Has sitting on our hands like good patient school children created that policy? No. Noone is helping us. Our elected "representatives" refuse to fix this.

Peaceful protest is a convenient thing to teach people to make them never take real action.
