As far as I know he ever advocated for it, but he understood it as an inevitable reaction.
Off the tip of my head the only specific quote I can think of is his
"I think that we’ve got to see that a riot is the language of the unheard. And, what is it that America has failed to hear? It has failed to hear that the economic plight of the Negro poor has worsened over the last few years.”

Controversial amongst whom and for what reasons?
Without providing that context your critique is “…unhelpful at best”
Edit: to be clear, Hexbear is a large and active instance, so if you value their content (as I do) other instances being de-federated can be just as much, if not more, a mark against those instances. Hence why it matters who deems them controversial and why.
I don’t personally know who they are federated with, but as someone who’s only used Lemmy.ML, I can interact with their instance and I can interact with many (if not most, idk) other instances (.World, .Zip, Lemmygrad, DBzer0, etc). So if they are de-federated with those instances and you want to see both Hexbear and them, maybe come to Lemmy.ml.
Side note: is there a way to track de-federations aside from just searching for communities hosted there from within your instance?
People are recommending all sorts of instances without telling them how many instances have de-federated from them and if they’re federated with hexbear etc.
You only focus that criticism on this suggestion because you are obviously one of the people who don’t like hexbear and want to frame your critique of the suggestion as more reasonable/less biased.
What exactly is the “reputation” hexbear has anyway? Being based?
By what metric?
China has the world’s largest HSR network at 45,000KM, 15x that of Japan’s 3,000KM network.
Chinas fastest regular use line is 350KM/h. Japan’s is 320KM/h.
(AFAIK) China is the only country with an operational maglev line (in Shanghai). A 30KM line at 430KM/h. While Japan’s Maglev is still under construction.
So what are the metrics that Japan’s rail system cooks China?
We don’t have a lack of housing. We have a distribution problem. We can’t just build infinitely, we need to redistribute.
Standard Linux mint is is Ubuntu based, LMDE is debian based. Completely different depending on the issues they had.
Edit: but also plenty of other Debian based distros, including Debian itself would avoid direct Ubuntu (Canonical) and Fedora (RedHat) influence.
There is a vast difference between a community driven project like Debian taking small contributions from people who happen to be in Israel/incorporating some things from RedHat after lots of vetting and diluting and Fedora being a direct upstream testing ground for RedHat who are the primary contributors and maintainers.
No, this type of approach will not lead to you throwing your PC in the trash, it will simply lead to you being more aware of your software and how it functions,what it contributes to, and what contributes to it. Which is a good thing imo.
For example, I use LMDE. Yes, there are most definitely contributions from redhat in my machine. the difference is between
RedHat engineers -> Fedora.
And
RedHat engineers -> Fedora -> Upstream Project acceptance-> Debian -> LMDE.
I’m not saying you need to stop using Fedora. But everyone draws a line somewhere and I’m simply making my knowledge on this known for people who’s line may be in a similar place to mine.
It’s worth noting that fedora is heavily sponsored by RedHat (a subsidiary of IBM) and is the upstream testing ground for RHEL (Redhats commercial offering). RedHat also has close ties to Israels government and it’s military.
This is a huge dealbreaker for someone like me so I feel it’s necessary to mention.
I’m appealing to OPs authority and not including a Fallacy in this comment.
…
Oh shit…
Linux Mint Debian Edition.
You say not to suggest mint, but you most probably used an Ubuntu based Mint so that doesn’t count.
Linux Mint Debian Edition.
Obviously you can’t completely rid yourself of all RedHat influence but Fedora is their literal upstream community testing ground and LMDE really does limit their influence heavily and that of Canonical (Ubuntu) by just building off of the more community based Debian (which Ubuntu built off of as well)
But what if you’re always high
Nah bro cooked. His ideas are beyond your comprehension.
So are you suggesting fascists and fascist movements should not be restrained via group with power and control over them but people just not accepting them is fine?
There are other options. Join a socialist org and organize/eductate within your workplace and community.
You don’t have to vote for a Democrat.
People have been voting Democrats the whole time on our path to where we are, it didn’t stop us from being doomed. We had 2 Obama terms right before Trump 1, then we had a Biden term between Trump 1 and 2 and it stopped/fixed nothing.
Love how the bed of the truck is basically the same size (if not smaller) as well so really you can’t use the excuse of needing the bigger truck for hauling stuff.
I believe they are asking why should it matter the VA race but not the race of the person who wrote the character, or designed the character, or animated the character.
No this is from a CBS interview with Mike Wallace. But he understood this concept and spoke on it a few other times from what I see.
After a quick search of the text, this is a similar quote from his “Letter From Birmingham Jail”, so maybe this is the specific one you were thinking of.
“The Negro has many pent up resentments and latent frustrations, and he must release them. So let him march; let him make prayer pilgrimages to the city hall; let him go on freedom rides -and try to understand why he must do so. If his repressed emotions are not released in nonviolent ways, they will seek expression through violence; this is not a threat but a fact of history. So I have not said to my people: “Get rid of your discontent.” Rather, I have tried to say that this normal and healthy discontent can be channeled into the creative outlet of nonviolent direct action. And now this approach is being termed extremist.”
As for the rest, I’m not much of an MLK-head, so this is basically where my ability to be helpful ends.
