“When has a 12% minority ever defeated a 72% majority in world history? I can think of no such example and I’m a pretty big history buff. Can anyone here show me such an occasion?”
I make this point to my friends a lot. I remember the Panthers saying they were going to have a revolution and take over America. Figure 12%, half of which are women which leaves 6%. 20% of the 6% are in prison and another 20% of the remainder are too old or drugged up to be of use. That leaves 3.6%. Good luck with all that skippy.
Of course, the revolution never happened, and many of those militants got themselves killed by robbing banks and committing other crimes. I always wondered if allying with black radicals didn't make all the white leftist radicals nervous. Because many black radicals hated all white people and not just non-leftists. Would have been interesting.
