Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

Nah, you are right. Any organisation and method that can actually change the society in a meaningfully better way will have the state try their best to kill them. But if we work for the masses and the masses realise that, then they will also be part of the movement, and the state cannot kill everybody.
We need to learn from their weak points so that we won't make the same mistake and last longer, and then the successive generation will learn from our weak points so that they won't make the mistakes that we do, and last longer. That's how I guess things might go forward.
But we also need to remember that after the Black Panthers, there has not been any organisation in the USA or any other urban area that have stayed as long and made as much of a difference, so we must also see where they went right, and emulate that in our current scenario as well.
