Which political philosophies state that violence is not wrong and is the only way to achieve one's aims is by violence or the threat of violence?
Tried to google but it's just bringing up postmodern shit like Foucault rather than what I want to read

Philosophy is about understanding. The only time action is needed is when you must bring that understanding to the masses.
Instead of asking what philosophies justify fighting perhaps you must furst ask what is a philosophy worth fighting for.

Last time I checked revolutionary communism was pretty violent in its doctrine of reaching power.
People just cherry pick ideas to support their goals regardless of how inaccurate those ideas might be? Shocking.

There is a lot of philosophy books to read, spare me the lecture I have plenty of time to understand the whole spectrum. I'm just particularly interested in violence for now, after reading all the usual left wing philosophy telling me all authority is bad I want to read the opposite

HA! Maybe it just means there are no such philosophies and that what you want is therefore wrong?

Vague description but pragmatism, doesn't say you SHOULD do violence, but if that's what's needed than that's the best course of action and you should do it.
