I can't find it now. But some outlet argued that state-sponsored violence positively reinforced empathy for the victim and negatively reinforced empathy for the police and state. And riot-violence positively reinforced empathy for the police and state and negatively reinforced opinions of the rioters. I don't believe it (yet) because it makes too much *sense* to be an actual result. Sounds like rationalization or confirmation bias.
But if it's true, then riots do work ... to bolster a fascist state. Rioters who call themselves "anarchists" are either tools of the fascists or just too stupid to understand what they're doing. Actual anarchists would not riot.
