If you toy with violence, they'll show you how to commercialize it. I'm not enjoying or condoning that reality.
Hasn't that already happened? I feel like you are trying to paint a picture we've had since forever.
No, this would be a whole new level.
It will be, one way or the other.
Status quo will be broken soon, and we will see who will keep standing.
I think it'll be the ones with the military industrial complex, the financial institutions, and the globalized food networks.
Thus I want to change the system non violently.
How?
I'm personally interested in filling downticket seats with more progressive candidates. Conservatives are gobbling these positions up which bolster higher office mandate. Anyone left of center needs to find common ground and start shifting the window left. Lower seats are critical to turning the gears of bureaucracy, and establishing that base makes things like transparent and accountability more attainable.
Yes, that has been working so well.
