This isn’t /shittyphilosophy or some sort of personal mantra, this is signaling what he thinks of those who do not engage in violence against him. He’s simultaneously calling out everyone for being weak and not challenging him and more importantly to himself implying he is strong because of that lack of resistance.
I am worried that this could be bait. Elon can see that the entire world is turning on him, but if violence escalates then Trump could use it as justification to declare Martial law.
It’s more why should you respect and be patient with someone who can’t do a thing against you if you aren’t? Say you met someone on the street and they decided to start insulting you. The natural response is to punch them in the face to ensure they don’t insult you further; except if they are stronger or have some other reason for you to respect them and put up with their bullshit (ex. Elders, martial arts sensei, some kind of community leader, etc.).
The response to a peaceful protest is similar. So long as they don’t insult one’s honor or get in the way they don’t get a punch in the face, except if they wield enough political clout. You don’t have power to be peaceful unless you can fight back.
