What are you even talking about? Are you under the impression that the only way to take action is through losing your mind and raging?

Controlling your rage allows you to act rationally.

i'm not talking about rage, although i do think anger is a great motivator. i'm talking about calm, rational use of violence as a means to an end.

Yeah, you're right. What did non-violent resistance ever achieve other than liberate India, give people of color in the U.S. civil rights, free the Baltic states from the Soviet Union, end one-party rule in Czechoslovakia, topple the former Ukrainian regime and other things I could probably come up with if you gave me time?
