Why was white_wolf's thread locked?

There was no advocacy of "violent overthrow" of the government. It was a thread on a labor struggle that has involved civil disobedience. That's NOT advocacy of violent overthrow.

By that logic any threads about civil disobedience of the past from the labor struggles of the 30s to the civil rights and anti Vietnam war movements would have been locked.

1. It was locked for the reason stated by the moderator

The OP included the opinion that rich people should have their property damaged.

2. I must have missed that post..........

Even so, that's NOT advocating "violent overthrow".

3. It was in the OP and the rule isn't just about "violent overthrow" -- it also refers to "violent social change."

I guess "beating up queers" is out of the question too, huh? How about killing unborn babies?

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Killing unborn babies is considered a fairer fight than beating up a queer.  There is a better statistical chance of the baby fighting back, rather than the queer fighting back.
