A large body of research, spanning more than 50 years, shows that heavy-handed policing and militarized responses to civil unrest tend to make protests more volatile — not less.

Adding fuel to a fire makes it larger? Fuck me this is breaking news
It happened before the 1960s too, even!
I really dislike this dismissive attitude towards “obvious” news.
I think you put the wrong word in quotes. “News”
No, I didn’t. That would be exactly what I’m saying I dislike.
Its not news tho. Its history. So even calling this news is wrong, which is why “news” should be the word in quotes
You’re missing my point.
No im not. I havent challenges your point about dismissive altitudes.
Dismissing the article as not being “news” is exactly the same sentiment as the news being “obvious”.
It’s not new information to you, but you are just speaking for yourself. Rather than holding back to avoid annoying people like you, I’d rather things be shared freely to inform the masses.
