    There are those that see things drifting away from their priorities and their wants and needs. They’ve tried working within the system, but the system always makes things worse. Of course people like that will be tempted to “burn it all down” and start anew, or at least throw a wrench in the cogs and stop progress.

    We should focus on convincing them that ‘progress’ is better for them - and if it isn’t, maybe we shouldn’t support it as well. Unless it is an issue of justice, then of course not letting people ‘get away with it’ is worse for those people.

      How about solidarity? Thats my hope.

      I want a very different society than the one ive got. Status Quo Joe sucks dick, but we still have a democracy in which all political avenues are open. Our ends might be different, but the means need not be. We must all work together to make this hellscape liveable.
