The problem is that "nonviolent resistance" doesn't work, and revolution is necessary. It isn't about ideological purity, it's about what is possible and what is not.

Then convince people of that with reasoned arguments. Not by making fun of people.

Much more likely to build community that way. And without community, the violent resistance will not lead to long lasting success.

We do both. It's just a generally human thing to joke around with your community, but again, this just returns to my question of whether or not you've engaged with people advocating revolutionary means.

It is human to joke. Not everyone finds every joke to be funny.

Sure? Never said everyone needed to find every joke funny. Have you engaged with people advocating revolutionary means?
