How would you suggest stopping them then? Fascists on a power trip don’t give a shit about your letters. Or your signs. Or your songs outside their buildings.

Would England have freed the United States without violence? Would Hitler have backed down from controlling Europe if you held a sign for long enough? How about Putin? Or Netanyahu? Or Pol Pot? Saddam Hussein? Hideki Tojo?

There are countless examples from history where meeting violent with violence is the only answer. They bring it. You either fight back or you die.
