you can point out their hypocrisy, it doesn't matter. you can make fun of them all you want, it doesn't matter. you can debate their ideas, it doesn't matter.

if you want to save the world, there's really only one solution.

Save the cheerleader?

I agree and disagree with that. If you don't point it out and tell them (and others) that they're wrong, then they go on doing it with zero pushback and it eventually becomes the truth.

I completely understand what you're saying, and it's exhausting they just continue to shout over everyone, but nothing changes if no one does anything.

you probably just got here like most lemmyists, but we've been pointing out the flaws in their ideology since the internet was birthed. no one's listening. time for real solutions.

"you've been here for over a year so you couldn't possibly understand politics from the past four decades, or human nature"

Wut

if you did, the solution would be obvious.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

Is the solution to be cringe edgy like you?

then go for it high speed, stop beating around the bush and waiting for someone to do whatever you think is obvious and get to work.

I'm just the propaganda arm of the revolution. My only goal is to make people realize that our current methods of beating the right aren't working. It will take a significant portion of the population to truly fix anything (even winning elections doesn't make them go away, and they will always be a roadblock to meaningful change). I'm not even really advocating for anything as much as I am trying to make you all understand that the problem is never solved until it's solved once and for all. Furthermore, we will never be able to reach our utopian future as long as there are a significant number of us trying to go backwards. Humanity has endured so much to get to the point that it's long time goals are within reach. Some generation of us deserves to reap the rewards. Will it be your children, or will another century have to be one of suffering? Can we afford to endure another century of this dystopia? Can the world even survive it?

This isn't edgelord shit. This is just facing the reality that we have no choice but to be good stewards. The alternative dooms so much life on this planet.
