Losurdo addresses this kind kind of absurdity extensively in his book on non-violence, wherein he points out the liberal domestication of resistance as a kind of religious dogma with no basis in how power relations unfold. At a certain point, we must recognize that elevating non-violence to an absolute principle can serve power rather than challenge it, particularly when it allows state violence to continue uninterrupted while protesters preserve their moral "purity"
As Losurdo argues, this normalization of non-violence as the only legitimate form of resistance creates an asymmetry: it condemns the counter-violence of the weak while legitimizing the violence of the strong. We risk creating a system where only resistance is deemed illegitimate, while the structural violence of the state proceeds without interference
Call for a strike. Organize and withhold labor. Commit to boycotts and structural obstruction of firms that aid and support ICE. But this kind of performative, feel-good action doesn't merely fail to accomplish anything, it actively risks delegitimizing more serious and practical forms of political resistance
It should go without saying but when the spectacle of protest is increasingly seen as the only substitute for material confrontation with power, its tantamount to us conceding the field entirely






now: "what if we did zone of interest but we present ourselves as antifascist"
