Nonviolent Protest and Resistance Privileged

[The Grand Nudger]

I don't know what black block is, I saw you reference it when talking to abaris before and didn't know what it meant then.

It's very simple. I'm talking about the merits of individual cases and applying the same standard universally.

So I can't say this group here has some merits based on the fact that they're willing to die for their cause but that cult over there is crazy because they're willing to die for their cause.

Radical suggestion...maybe their willingness to die for their cause is based upon something other than mental instability in both cases?  Like.....an actual grievance?  

(the black block are those people that abaris mentioned and, to hear you tell it, make bumfights videos and riot because it's cool and/or profitable, just out to start shit..you know, the only group of protesters you deigned to comment on specifically)

If I'm honest and non hypocritial then I have to judge both groups based on merits beyond the factor of how much their willing to die.

Omitting that commitment in your metrics probably won't give you a full view of their case, cause, and motivations.

And that works for any individual also.

Apparently not.  You've told us what you think about cults and crazy people and terrorists, but have avoided any specific assessment of a specific group wtih a specific set of grievances that have resorted to violence in specific instances.
