Statistically almost all violent ones failed and only non violent are long lasting... Also you need at least 15% of the population to do either efficiently and since the climate idiots fucked up mostly the lower and middle class people so far thats not gonna happen any time soon. Climate change is a big problem but the way most of them protest is just ridiculous and achieves the opposite of what's wanted, not all publicity is good publicity.

You should look more into human history when you have time.

Bruh what? Do that yourself especially in the last 100 years almost no violent uprising lasted long and especially not when it had below 15% of the people on their side.

Did you not hear about revolutions and uprisings in history? History didn't just magically stop 100 years ago.

Good to know no that kingdoms were overthrown, though. You should really submit your proof to historians, though, I'm sure they would love to see it.

I don't think our conversation will go anywhere. Have a good one.
