I hope we end it with violence.
There's very little chance it ends otherwise to be fair. Talking and negotiation didn't work, peaceful protest didn't work.
Newsflash: it already is ending with violence.
We're losing. Handily.
This is the part so few people understand.
Apathy prevents violence, and will continue to do so until the vast majority of people are in constant pain and fear with absolutely no alternative. When the people have nothing to lose they will act.
Even the most politically aware and ethically minded among us can't drop their daily lives in favor of standing up for the oppressed when standing on the razor edge of working every day to avoid homelessness.
Those who are not on the razor edge have "more to lose" by toppling the system

Ideally the kind that doesn't first have like death camps for the "undesirables", famine, and disease. But given how many maga-hats are cheering for ICE even as their spouses get disappeared, I don't know how things are going to go.
Also some lemmy moderators are such pearl clutchers they'll take action about the slightest hint of violence, no matter how justified.
