  • Revolutions have resulted in net worse societies historically. They are such major high risk high reward actions that there’s a big chance that just another elite will replace the current elite, and be just as bad or worse due to the chaos.

    Also you just said it, capital runs the world. How would you have a revolution against the whole world? It’s fun to think about if you’re a college sophomore, but in reality that’s not a feasible, or even good, solution.


  • It’ll always be a game of percentages. There will always be some amount of hardcore cult members, but as worse and worse things come to light, the new info will pick off sections of MAGA one piece at a time. We can debate percentages, but I think a critical mass of MAGA would leave if they had crystal clear proof of Trump raping children.

    One source I’m using is The Necessary Conversation youtube podcast, and while it’s just two data points, it give the regular person a really good insight into the cult.





  • People on the fediverse don’t want to hear this, but a complete revolution from the ground up is going to result in a net worse world than a heavily reformed government/society.

    We still need to take all this anger and energy to change the system, but a complete revolution away from capitalism is just… not going to happen, unless every country in the world also participates. The beauty of reform is that there are many different levels to it, and we can accomplish almost everything needed with “reforms”. These may seem quite extreme to a midwest moderate housewife (i.e. some average middle class person), but they are necessary to push back against this literal evil world domination scheme being enacted by the technofascists (Musk, Andreeson, Horowitz, Thiel, Vought, Roberts, Miller, Yarvin, etc.).

    Kind of a tangent, but to learn more check out vcinfodocs.
