        Hence why “radicalise the populace” is a phrase that makes sense.

        The populace, containing many people who are radicalised and many others who are not radicalised, may become further radicalised by gaining a higher proportion of radicalised people in response to state repression.

        If the populace and the radicals were the same set of people, then there would be no further radicalisation possible.

      It won’t galvanize the protestors, that’s for sure.

      Unfortunately, abusers don’t care about bravery or persistence. They only respond to force, and if the abused doesn’t have the force necessary to topple their abusers, they will continue to get abused.

      It’s really that simple. But yeah, thoughts and prayers. NO FOREIGN INTERVENTION. Just thoughts and prayers <3
