yeah, I have seen too many videos, made by, and probably posted by, IDF killers themselves where they commit horrible crimes, and nothing is done about it. Like a group walking down a street, nothing is happening, very few people there, and an IDF just shoots a child sitting on a porch. Saw a video, from what looked like security cameras, of a small scuffle that left people injured, when the ambulance showed up, surprise! It's the IDF, and they started shooting at everyone. This is just two things. I do not deny Hamas commit war crimes, however, this is no defense of what the IDF is doing.

I have read a number of things, over the years, discussing essentially this. They were always recalling historical movements to make their case, not so data driven. Thank you for the paper.

correct, and in those cases they saw that there was an important group within the movement they could have a diplomatic out with, and they decided to take it before it was all violence

The problem is that pageantry is all that it is. The other dictators that do this may say things like it is just a show of their patriotic pride, but it is, in reality, an indulgence, flexing their power, showing everyone when they jump, they better give me an amazing spectacle, not just jump. Also, behold our arms!

There was that guy in colorado who shot a mass shooter, then the cops killed him

Yes, they leave out that the protests work because they are displays of very large amounts of people who, while peaceful now, they have reason to believe can become violent. Without being backed by the threat of violence, or seen as a diplomatic out to a movement that is, otherwise, violent, they don't really work.

His middle name was normal, I honestly don't remember exactly what it was, because we barely ever spoke to each other. The only reason I knew the kid even existed was because his name was Gaylord. Jacob, maybe? Something like that.

he tried to go by his middle name, but was only able to convince a small number of people to call him that.

That is "classic" bigotry, if you will. Systemic bigotry does not need these feelings, as you thoughts on the subject mean nothing to those who are the targets of the bigotry, as buying things that enrich their persecutors, and actively donating to those people ideologically, bears no significant difference to the persecuted, in any practical manner. Also, if it is something I can practically avoid, living in the world I was born into, then I do. Entertainment is like the poster child of things you can choose to avoid. Suggesting people live an impossibility does no good, but that is not what is happening with people telling people to drop JK Rowling's IP.

Why is there so much cruelty? So much us vs. them thinking? Why is the MAGA movement a thing? Watch this video for partial answers.
