Direct action by dedicated, anonymous covert operatives: inhibits, delays, and frustrates the state and it’s ability to repress dissent. Human Cost: A couple of people throw away some incriminating clothes, lay low, then move on with their lives.
Uhhhh, the 60s and 70s seem to suggest otherwise. As does the early 1900s.
BTW I’m not just referencing the MLK Jr. nonviolence bias over BPP that many lib historians have where they try to downplay the necessity of more active resistance against oppression.
The explosion of the Bandung decolonization movement was critical as well, which is often left out in favor of mentioning the USSR’s existence forcing the first world to maintain social services and welfare.

Nonviolent protests are not a cargo ritual which summons their necessary counterpart.
A strategy of bourgeois historians and analysts is to make us feel we should be satisfied with going out and declaring our beliefs.
