> When peaceful Occupie Wall Street protestors were brutalized at scale, I think the whole world noticed

And within a short time, everything was back to business as usual. Then in 2020, Black Lives Matter protestors were brutalized at scale. The whole world took notice, the police kept beating the shit out of people, a lot of lip service was paid, and nothing changed.

I'm not advocating for a violent revolution here, but what about meekly letting the state beat the shit out of you seems to be working?
