saying something isn't "strategically correct" isn't the same thing as offering a "strategically correct" alternative or analyzing why you think it's "incorrect", you can disagree all you want.

You're only clutching pearls and nattering about optics & aesthetics. If you don't think this thing is getting worse, then I don't think you're paying attention. Whine about what sensible people will think all you want to. Those "sensible" people with all "strategic" concerns perfectly formulated certainly aren't giving enough of a shit to stand in solidarity in the street with these protestors, so what does your tone-policing & finger wagging really accomplish?

Shooting at the police isn't a "strategic" move. In this case, it's literally self-defense.

But sure, only the protestors should be brow-beaten about non-violence and best practices. The disparate and underserved and disenfranchised should bootstrap themselves into a perfectly harmonious social fabric that listens to the perfectly reasoned & strategically correct concerns of oppressed & victimized underclasses lmfao.

You're acting like a muppet
