The lesson is that protestors need to avoid playing into the hands of a press that wants to demonize them. Protest is necessary but violence will be played on media as coming from the students. Mahatma Gandhi and MLK jr knew how to take the violence without responding in kind, and they made progress. We in the anti-Viet Nam war didn’t and it backfired on us. I think it will take sacrifice and bloodshed to win, but violence even if it’s in self defense will lose. With distrust in msm and social media, I think this movement has a real chance, my generation blew it and over 58,000 of us died.
