There's enough social pressure telling us the system works and is fair and just, and that violence is wrong and doesn't change anything.

When you have an event like this, with the overwhelmingly positive reception by regular people, and within 24 hours BCBS rolls back a plan that has been years in the making to limit anesthesia during surgery, it shows two things:

1) murdering people who themselves murder people is not really socially unacceptable

2) direct action works in ways that the system does not

Maybe that changes the status quo a little, who knows?
