Civility Never Won Anything

Erik Loomis at LGM warns us not to fall for the civility trap.

This of course included ACT-UP one of the bravest and most successful protest movements in American history. These are the actions that we should follow and emulate. Don’t listen to this civility garbage. It’s just a ploy by conservatives to stop the left from succeeding. Unfortunately, liberals will all too often fall into this trap themselves and fret about what those crazy radicals are doing. They also should be ignored. The future of change is direct confrontation with power. Go for it.
