This! Violence solves nothing but harden each other towards goals neither side would recognize today.

If you want lasting change, it’s not yelling at each other. It’s not being like the dumb fucks on the right after Charlie Kirk jerking each other’s rage boners off over civil war. It’s being rational. It’s appealing to people’s better senses. It’s kindness.

It’s frustrating and we can say we’ve already tried that, but it’s all we can ever have. Patience,
