Throughout history, like 99% successful rebellion against authoritarianism has been violent.

The only successful non-violent over-throwing of an authoritarian occupation either had the leverage of violence, or brought attention to the issue by those who used violence :/
I sure don't have any qualms about nonviolence succeeding because the oppressors realize they don't want to see the violence.
