    You mean the thing western countries have been trying for the past 100 years only to result in the current encroaching fascist takeover through non-revolution while the global climate collapses leading to billions dead?

    I’ll pass on that thanks.

      This is literally the world you live in, in which numerous revolutions have taken place. None of them solved the problem. I’ll pass on doing the same insane shit over and over again, thanks.

        Individual freedoms are more than they have been in the past thousands of years. The reason things are as they are now is that we have not had a revolution in so long because liberal politics have placated people into thinking there is another path.

        If revolution had not worked we would still be serfs. The failure is in the lack of continued revolution.

          “It didn’t work because it worked! It’ll stop not working if we do it more!” is the weakest nonsense I’ve ever heard in support of violence. I would compare it with those chuds who beat their kids and say “well my dad beat me, and I turned out fine!”

            It did work, but it is a continuous process. You cannot revolt once and think everything will be perfect for ever.

            But please do list your amazing alternative, I’m sure it’s achieved so much and solved all the issues we face.

              Revolt ONCE? How… how long do you think this has been going on? A hundred years? A thousand? You’re being super snide while saying the dumbest shit imaginable and I can’t even guess where you got such confidence in this ignorance.

                On two separate occasions you’ve been asked to provide your solution, do it. Le to all hear your amazing non-revolutionary method liberal.

                  I have provided the solution. You didn’t see it because it’s not what you wanted to see. You don’t want another solution, you want an excuse for violence just like the people you’d overthrow. You’re not here to learn anything, but to be snide and call me silly names like “liberal”. I’m a full on leftist, bud. Now go find someone else to spew this trash at.

                    You already demonstrated you are a compliant Nazi, ignoring collaborators and class traitors are the reason the bourgeoisie won’t ever starve. You ignore the deathcamps, because you enjoy the proletariat starving.
                    You are a Nazi.

                    The kind of change that needs to happen is one which can only happen when humanity no longer produces the kind of people who create and uphold oppressive systems. It’s not something you can do by force, whether soft or hard force. Empathy and dialectic are the very latest innovations in human evolution and are far too rare as yet, especially since that population keeps getting culled by their own families and countrymen the world over.

                    Is this meant to be a solution? A word salad to a pipe dream of spontaneous complete social change in the face of society controlled by billionaires and their media mouthpieces?

                    Or did you write something else I’ve missed because I’ve yet to see you propose a solution.
