Civil disobedience? Well don't mind if I do.

Civil Disobedience is the opposite of this.

Uncivil Disobedience

Ok ok. Civil disobedience, but with bricks

[–] [email protected] 36 points 9 months ago (1 children)

No, this is just rioting. That's not to say rioting is bad, it got redlining and segregated neighborhoods banned, and is an important part of peaceful demonstrations, as it shows what the consequences will be if they don't give into your demands.

For anyone wondering:

civil disobedience, the refusal to obey the demands or commands of a government or occupying power, without resorting to violence or active measures of opposition

He was also loosely the inspiration for the titular character in Inside Llewelyn Davis iirc

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

Inside Llewyn Davis is one of my favorite movies for how it essentially deals with depression, but Dave van Ronk being an ally even if just in throwing bricks makes it even better imo

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago

A true ally
