          Thanks for proving my point I guess…?

          the movement expanded against what many perceive as an authoritarian government when hundreds of protestors and civilians, most of whom were students, were killed.[f] The majority of the fatalities were caused by gunshots fired by the police and other government forces, using lethal and deadly weapons,[89] against unarmed protestors and non-protesting civilians, including children and pedestrians

          Meaning it’s literal suicide.

          Edit because you’re sure to bring this up: sure you might bring about change, but each individual in that protest holding a proverbial pitchfork is just yet another practice target for the cops.

            They took down the government… Their revolution succeeded.

            I didn’t realize your point was even stupider than I imagined. Thanks for your great contribution Socrates.

      One pitchfork - do you have a blue one? - and a torch please. Preferably lavender scented.
