Originally, militants fought with weapons to defend their ideas.
Today, however, a militant isn’t necessarily violent.
Just as well, because they’re all around us. The person handing out flyers for a candidate in an election… is a militant!
So are all people in politics militants?
No, not all! In a political party, there are different roles.
For example, the leaders. They get paid to put forward ideas and take decisions. That’s their job.
