Only those who cannot fight with ideas or words must resort to violence. Revolution Normally, I would agree with the above. Violence is not the only evil in the world, however. There is exploitation, poverty, starvation, and ignorance. Much of this is caused by our capitalist system, a system that condones the Darwinian idea of survival of the fittest.
Capitalism allows for a wealthy elite while millions starve in the supposed land of equality.
If only we could unite to destroy this evil system, we could reduce or eliminate much of this evil. But the system is like an organism, and an organism's first goal is self-preservation. It has become impossible to reform the system from the inside. The only way to change the system, then, is to destroy it and create a new one. The sacrifice that we, the revolutionaries, must make is the greatest one.
