Communists believe that justice can only be achieved by the violent overthrow of the oppressor, and tend to support the international proletariat in struggles for liberation. I think this is especially a refute to liberals whitewashing civil rights movements into "peacefully asking for rights". Historically, many civil rights leaders were very socialist
Ah that makes sense, thank you very much!
