Het bekendste pamflet van de Amerikaanse politicoloog Gene Sharp (1928–2018) is "From Dictatorship to Democracy" (Van dictatuur naar democratie). Oorspronkelijk geschreven in 1993, dit korte essay / pamflet is uitgegroeid tot een wereldwijd handboek voor geweldloos verzet.

Title: Utopias of Violence

Text:
The war in Iran began with a dream of violence. The question now is whether the nightmare that followed returns to the United States.

The most important lesson to be learned from the American defeat is that the use of force does not magically lead to the outcome you want. This is not a point that is likely to be taken in the White House. And so the rest of us have to be ready to talk about, and thereby prevent, Trump's obvious wish: the use of military force inside the United States to preserve his power.

Title: Utopias of Violence

Text: Will the tyrannical emotional state that brought us the war now be applied inside the United States? The emotional state, the utopia of violence, is not closely tethered to reality, and has to be considered in its own right. It has causal force, as we have just seen in Iran. The war began not with a plan, or a strategy, or for that matter any sense of the national interest. The attack on Iran began with a longing -- a subjective sense that violence is pleasurable and can bring a utopia in which desires become reality. In the statements of President Trump and Defense Secretary Hegseth, such a utopia of violence is palpable. By "utopia of violence" I mean the belief that the use of force is somehow transcendental, removing the irritating constraints of daily life, and making everything possible.

We gaan aangifte doen tegen Markuszower naar aanleiding van zijn oproep om Palestijnse asielzoekers met “maximaal geweld” tegen te houden. “Met geweld, ja.” Deze uitspraken zijn niet alleen moreel verwerpelijk, maar zetten naar onze mening aan tot geweld tegen Palestijnen.

It has been four years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Walking in Uzhhorod, I found myself counting to two hundred and sixteen. Two hundred and sixteen plaques with photographs of men and women from Uzhhorod who have been killed in the war.
Text card:
Thinking About
"Four Years"
"Exactly four years of war, as of today. The cemeteries in Ukraine are larger than they should be. Fresh graves change the landscapes, as seen from a car or a train; the short spans of life, seen inscribed in stone, alter the reaction of the heart.
The number four did not come to us. We brought it with us. Like 216, or like 100,000, the number four arrived because of what we failed to do. Do we count? Or are we just counting?"

Four years have passed since Russia's full scale invasion of Ukraine. Russia was supposed to win in three days. Instead, Ukraine reinvented modern warfare, built a drone industry, and can destroy a thousand Russian soldiers in a day. Ukraine can win.
