Support needs to be sapped, and most importantly at this point work on emotionally connecting with soldiers so that guardsmen are more loyal to ideals and citizenry than the nutter-in-chief.
If you really believe that, then you must know that attacking them isn’t going to get you there. They need to see that what they’re doing is wrong. And the only way to do that, is to make sure their orders are unjustified.
I think there’s a lot of space between peaceful and don’t directly attack the guardsmen.
Maybe I’ve been too inundated by people who think graffiti or smashing windows of targeted buildings is “too violent”… Meanwhile guardsmen are already shooting reporters and protesters without provocation.
Takes a lot of balls to go full on MLK and hope that the forces brutalise kids… But maybe that’s what is needed. Then again, MLK could hope that federal forces would step in to keep the peace, not push for escalation and killings.
At this point, at least they’re still using rubber bullets. But, that’s the entire plan at the moment…keep shooting non-lethal rounds until someone shoots back.
Then…the safeties come off, and a lot of people die. It all depends on how long the protesters can keep their shit together before someone changes the nature of the conflict.
Right now, most of those soldiers are not going to be ok shooting civilians. But the instant they’re getting shot at, there are no civilians anymore. Just targets.
Any form of resistance will be made an excuse.
And no resistance won’t stop them.
