    Workers died during the Coal Wars.

    Hmmm...

    On August 30, 1921, President Warren G. Harding declared martial law for the entire state of West Virginia and 2,500 federal troops arrived on September 2, bringing with them machine guns and military aircraft armed with surplus explosive and gas bombs from the recently concluded World War I.

    You really should fuck off with you "historical illiteracy" bullshit, but I'm guessing you won't.

    It's a whole lot more complicated than whatever you're on about, and that's before we revisit the point that who the fuck cares what happened generations ago if one party has its boot on our throats right now.

        by police who take their orders from Democrats

        The police don't really take orders from anyone; the complete lack of accountability is a big reason the protests got so large and have sustained for so long. And while there are no shortage of shitty local Democrats, at least some are making serious attempts to change how we handle crime, compared to a Republican party that is pure bootlicker.

        One party at least has some elements trying to control the police; the other is openly asking "why don't we just do fascism?" How is this hard?

        you might want to get over whatever bizarre electoralism

        Dismissing electoralism without a feasible alternative is just whining. If you have an alternative plan to achieve socialism that will actually work , I'm all ears.
