This fairly short essay is worth reading if you've ever considered yourself a pacifist. He offers several arguments for why its not only a failed strategy for effecting change but actually causes harm to those who are engaged in armed resistance against state power.

A must read for any pacifist, or any one questioning the necessity of armed struggle.

We can simply watch our systems collapse.
We can try to design successor systems before the collapse.
Or we can try to hasten the collapse with no idea of what might replace that which we have.

This book maintains the 3rd is right and that protest that delays the "right timing", are wrong while itself failing to attempt reflection on if the proposed solution is in itself a very special pathology prohibiting the building of better systems to replace what was.
