  • You are not punching anyone in the face. And telling other people they are lazy or bad for not pretending otherwise doesn’t make it anymore true that you are. You’re just someone shouting a lie at a person who is sick of being shouted at and wondering why no one is doing what you want them to do.

    That’s quite the story you’ve invented for me. I didn’t call anyone lazy or bad, and I’m wholly confused at what lie I’m supposedly shouting here.

    I can imagine that you’re frustrated by your own inability to effect the change you would like to see. Totally understandable.


  • It’s only true in this system that rewards the self-serving individual. I don’t believe this is implicit to human nature, but we have to be willing to collectively punish bad actors severely, rather than shrug and look the other way as these people misbehave.

    The violent struggle is inevitable at this point, its really now just about how may times you’ll let yourself be punched in the face until you punch back.
