I genuinely don’t know if they’re doing this intentionally, or if they are just completely blind to it at this point, but violence is, and always has been, normalized and used in the dominating political/legal/governing/economic systems. It’s just not treated as such.
Because what is denying someone’s healthcare insurance claim that they are supposed to get if not violence? Or sending police after someone? Or sentencing someone to death?
Violence has always been part of the answer. It’s just that that answer is not officially allowed for the common rabble.
Western capitalist hegemonic powers glorify retributive violence but only when it benefits the ruling class. When the peasants realize that there is no way to initiate change in such a heavily controlled environment they are met with violent suppression. Even when we use non violence we are met with violent suppression. Look at the methods yale used to go after jon violent pro Palestinian protestors. The USA has been a far right fascist authoritarian state for at least 50 years now its just blatantly obvious for anyone paying attention
