Nah, it’s just wanted by the people who don’t ~~want to wait for better methods to work.~~ have the privilege to wait

FTFY, you overly privileged and status quo worshipping white moderate.

Movements thrive on a diversity of tactics. Let’s keep our eyes on the ball, in many different ways, rather than criticize those who don’t agree with us in the “right way”

No action you take will have immediate effect. Violence is just a balm you use to deal with that. Unfortunately, it has the effect of aligning people against you, which tends to make it take even longer.

But tell yourself whatever you want about how your violence will make effective change. At least you'll feel like you've done something as the world continues to burn around you.
