Lemmy

What’s up with this centrist nonsense? It’s a good thing to want to change the existing power structures actually.
I only see mockery of accelerationists, which I broadly support. Its 10 times easier to reform an existing government that to destroy and build a good one from scratch.
Not when the existing government is built to concentrate and protect current property relations. Sure have parallel structures built to replace what exists but don’t reform, revolt.
Difficulty of reform aside, the pain and suffering that will come from societal collapse will be immense. The chance of successfully building a better system out of the crumbled remains is low. I don’t think it’s a great aspiration.
some will die, that is a sacrifice.
Good people dying is bad, always! Even if it’s worth it in the end, we should try to find a way to save lives instead!
the way to save lives is to change the society that harms billions not prop it up because you lack the imagination to think of something better.
I agree that society is currently immensely flawed and should be changed, I just want minimal deaths on the way. If we can save lives, we should! Some deaths are necessary for change though.
Good people are dying now though. When is the cost of drastic change worth the cost of the status quo?
Thank you for your wisdom, Lord Farquaad.
