Isn’t it interesting how libs and cons are both fine with the romantic idea of revolution until someone actually seriously suggests doing something drastic? Y’know, in minecraft?

    Liberal / Hippie revolutionary discourse baffles me to such extent, they’re literally naive enough to think if they are numerous enough their racist neolib governments will be like “I stand corrected and will now fund a massive investment plan in social and environmental justice”

      That seems to be the idea getting pushed. With MLK and Ghandi usually used as examples

          Or they know it works and they don’t want their political opponents to try it. They never ask their extremist allies in Syria or Ukraine to practice non-violence. Only Palestinians, vietnamese people, etc… It’s almost like they know a secret and they don’t want you to know they know.
