Then, you know Gorbachev didn't end communism. He tried to maintain it. It didn't work. Communists did not give up power voluntarily. Every nation that freed itself did so by threatening to kill the communist bastards running the USSR.
Hardly a concession on your earlier points.....more of an amused response...
The new question you proffered “that armed revolt is justified and necessary sometimes to prevent or overcome tyranny?”
That would be depending on the situation, real life is not always that black and white. If there were other solutions available I would use those first.....armed response is the last resort.....
Yesterday was a well planned, organized, and executed Antifa/BLM operation. With the help of a few useful idiot and/or naive Trump supporters (the guy with his feet on Pelisi’s desk).
They’re good. And dangerous.
Duh. But, the answer would be YES! You are too big wuss to say it.
And, that's big YES before we end up like Venezuela. Would you agree? If not, you're content to live a socialist or communist dictatorship.
Obviously, you aren’t a veteran or been in combat.....
I am.....
Wuss no, just jump into war, no..... not when other options are available.....
You want a battle, go grab a gun and go to war..... no-one here will stop you.....
I never said there weren't other options available. I merely made the point you refuse to concede is that, at some point, armed conflict is unavoidable if elections are rigged unless one want to live in a socialist dictatorship or communist state.
