Lawyer. Not your lawyer. Mother. Not your mother. By day (and frankly nights and weekends), a civil rights lawyer for people who are incarcerated. Other times, just exhausted. Washington DC based.

Ah, Bluesky.
What is your praxis?
And I still think you missed the whole point. The criticism was of people thinking nonviolence means there will be no violence. Nonviolence as a practice is the opposite of that.
My praxis, nonviolent civil disobedience, is to oppose fascism by putting my body on the line and accepting the violence that comes. To be in the battle.
Are you suggesting that simply being horrified behind your keyboard is enough?

It is to provide a clear demonstration of the difference between your moral cause and the violent repression of the immoral state.
