overview for Jordans

What we must realize is that capitalist societies would sooner implode themselves than listen to what you have to say on this matter. "But-but capitalism actually works!!!" I'm sure you know this phrase all too well. You won't be able to convince people until you provide a valid alternative. Before then, you will fall on deaf ears. People have too much invested in this system for your words to sway them.

If you can create your own micro-state with its own economy and governance, and if it solves the problems that capitalism creates, people will flock in droves to become your citizens. People need to see the alternative. You can't just dump theory and literature on their lap. "We" won't win by fighting for the planet, we have to change minds. Do that, and the rest will come.

...I'm not quite sure what you're trying to express here. You say it works, and then you immediately refute it?

I totally agree that the community has been toxic as of late, but they're not totally unfounded. If you're playing diff7 or higher, the plethora of chargers choke flamethrower users. You simply don't have the space and the time to target the butt of every charger, doubly so if you're playing with randos.
