The left needs a much stronger tone in the narrative. When the military shot strikers (and innocent bystanders) here in Sweden, the left pushed hard. The Ådalen murders is an infamous event in our history, and spurred our worker's rights movement.

In the U.S. it happens all the time and the general view from the outside is that people are by and large apathetic because nothing is being done politically about it. There was some push-back during Covid but few people talk about it anymore.

...general strikes. Yes, at moments they turned violent, but it is because the government escalated it ...we want the violence caused by the government to encourage more people to join protests

Maybe it's just the difference between countries and media landscapes but that's not what's meant by "peaceful protest" in the US. The government escalates, blames the protestors (often false claims of rioting), and the media runs with the narrative. In an American context your describing mass violent riots.

"Peaceful" protest means you haven't elicited a response from law enforcement beyond standing on the side of a road babysitting the crowd.

Peaceful protest includes property damage fyi. Shit still needs to be disruptive to be effective, a lot of people forget that

The admin will arrest innocent citizens and declare martial law no matter what we do.

Fight back

We started pretending Covid didn't exist so we could force everyone back to work, because BLM was making progress on police reform.

Protest failure is often blamed on failing to have a unified message. Peaceful protests allow a wide selection of interests to add to the message. As sustained uprising requires a common goal because it requires more solidarity and mutuality to survive conflict. Those are easier to achieve when the message is plain and clear. Part of why the extreme flank is so effective is that it forces then peaceful protests onto a specific topic where they might otherwise just be noise.

Violence is also pretty much the only way to break into the mainstream news cycle.

Is Asterix™ a brand name?

This.

musk went into hiding, the administration toned down, we need to continue and encourage others to do, otherwise all that effort was wasted.

The protests are happening all the time, especially on weekends. I unfortunately see mostly older folks there, and this affects us much more is than them as we will have to live with this for decades of we don't do anything.
