115. I don't understand it
We read about things like the Boston tea party and celebrate the events, and a couple people break windows in the face of massive fraud and injustice that will end up killing or impoverishing millions and act outraged that anyone could be so uncouth.

Would the union movement that created the middle class have lasted a second if they weren't willing to fight back against state and corporate violence and just let themselves be martyred indefinitely?
