False Peace is the appearance of harmony achieved not through justice, healing, or relational integration—but through the suppression, silencing, or scapegoating of difference, tension, and complexity.
It is a peace that feels calm only because someone has been forced to be quiet.
What we often call “peace” in domination systems is not the absence of violence,
but the success of violence masquerading as stability.
Dear Chris Minns: PLEASE educate yourself about #FalsePeace.
It *increases* tensions, and worsens safety, because while you claim you want a “summer of healing” what uou are actually proposing is to force someone to be quiet; which itself is a violent act.
Violence begets violence
