MODERATORS
Does it not strike you in the least that actions like this are counterproductive? They provide an excuse the many people will readily accept. Violence is the language of the state and they speak it better than you. They know how to respond to it.
What should we do? Say thank you and bend over?
Mockery. They know how to respond to violence but they do not know how to respond to laughter. Satire is the greatest weapon. When they lose their legitimacy and people just stop complying that is when we win. If you use violence you are just as bad as them.
