MODERATORS
I'm trying to express two concerns about OP's meta-language:
How specifically can we (the non-rich) take this post seriously without becoming just as immoral as those we wish to oppose? Aren't we merely becoming the monsters we promised to slay? If so evil persists just in another form.
What is particularly unique about the post's emphasis on "this time"? We have plenty of corroborating history and theory, most of which seems to indicate that nothing in our current era will have different outcomes than previous attempts. I'd almost argue the exact opposite, now is the time to think or reflect--never has there been a time more obviously in need of recoordinating, not idle activity/mechanical action.
