violent resistance is no longer a realistic option to oppose an oppressive regime? The Kenny reading showed that non-violence is a path that can lead to regime change. Why is that? Is it because a non-violent struggle is morally superior to a violent one‚ and is therefore difficult to oppose?

To repress them would be a blatant violation of
