They are trying to cause riots... because they want to inact martial law... this is the whole plan... best thing to do is keep being peaceful because they don't understand why people aren't being violent, because thats exactly what they would be doing...
Matter of fact its what they did on Jan 6...
This is my exact read on the matter. We can't be the only ones to see it this way. What surprises me is that more analysts and pundits aren't talking about the economic violence from this angle. And when the masses finally reach their threshold, the Conservatives will do their "Whaaaat? So much for the tolerant Left."

"it's very important that every one quietly starves to death while being beaten by police, or else the government will starve the rest of us and beat them up as well!"
Being quiet, is not the same as protesting... rioting isn't going to make things better...
Protesting once every three months is going to do anything. And before you spout the 3.4% read what the people said. It is not a rule just an observation and it is becoming less relevant.
This is a typical abusee mindset.
"I know they're abusive but if I don't do anything to anger them they'll leave me alone"
They won't. The problem is them, not you.
Peaceful protest is what is meant, instead of violent protest. Peaceful doesn't mean doing nothing.
Is it though? So you think that people should start rioting so they will enact martial law...
Vs doing nothing and getting martial law anyway.
Anyone who downvoting is ignoring the fact they are sending the national guard into cities already and trump told troops he would be sending them too "if necessary".
Exactly.
