I see, your problem is that you think I'm advocating for new violence. What I'm advocating for is the violence of self defense. Capitalists do far worse things to far more people every day on order to maintain their power than would be required by the working class to remove them.
The good ol whataboutism here again I see...
It's not a whataboutism, it's a clarification. If you think that violence to maintain an oppressive structure and violence to overthrow that structure are morally equal, then you are a coward hiding behind pacifism in order to endorse keeping the current status quo.
