Just was talking about something similar in discord. We should not glorify violence, even the revolutionary kind. It hurts the person inflicting it even when it is justified.
Trust me I know. That said I have nothing against pictures of burning cop cars, that isn't violence as far as I am concerned.
And yet we knew:
Even the hatred of squalor
Distorts one’s features.
Even anger against injustice
Makes the voice grow hoarse. We
Who wished to lay the foundation for gentleness
Could not ourselves be gentle.
But you, when at last the time comes
That man can aid his fellow man,
Should think upon us
With leniency.
I'm honestly more active there than here lately and you can actually hear what I sound like there since I'm one of the more active folks in our vc channel.

Sort of. There's more than a few of us there

We also have a book club.
I'm especially proud of the Revolutionary Suicide episode I think it came out really good.
There's also the original CTH subreddit lifeboat discord that's kind of its own thing now
