    Massively oversimplified. But there gets a point, if enough people rise up, that the stronghold on power loosens.

      The bit that picture leave out is that first guy is almost certainly killed, as are a good few of those in the third panel. Thats what makes it difficult.

        Ah yes, good old “but we need peaceful protest”.

        Like the social democrats in Nazi germany condemning those who rebelled in the street because they caused damage.

          Unlike those lovely communists who frequently actively worked with the nazis (until '35) in order to weaken the social democrats and whos leader explicitly said “after Hitler, our turn”. Much better eh comrade?

            The KPD was shit. That doesn’t excuse what the SPD did. As always, just because two bad things happen doesn’t take away for the first thing being bad.

            There were plenty of grassroots anarchist and communist riots (unaffiliated with the KPD) that did a lot of good.
