    I’m just saying we need to know the route to run the marathon, otherwise we shouldn’t expect to win any prizes by the end of it.

    Defeating Putin, Trump, and Elon Musk is going to have specific steps to accomplish. Educate, Organize, and Unify opposition, and this will absolutely involve playing politics which a lot of people abhor. This isn’t one of those “hit problems with club until it stops moving” scenarios. At least not until we take away the enemy’s bigger club.

      Oh for sure. But we need to get people off the couch and moving before we can start telling them about a marathon.

        No I don’t agree with that. We need people to be informed on both issues and our goals from the start.

        I’m not going to lie to people to get them to join my “revolution.” I’m going to be up front and honest about my goals.

        I want to make the conservative right a useless husk in every way possible, empower a unified left opposition, and prepare future generations with knowledge and resources to advance progress and minimize all human suffering while maximising security and freedoms so long as those freedoms do not infringe upon others.

        I’m going to do that by convincing people to organize against the GOP and importantly with the DNC and Bernie Sanders.
