You're absolutely right, which is why I post things many critical of the left and the right. Divide and conquer is real.

Why would you hate to say something that is true?

well when i saw the rather uanimous comment below i got a bit nervous and chose this phrase to sound perhaps a bit more unbiased and stuff. idk.

I see now. Yeah, people are too quick to hate only one side when both are obviously evil and implicitly engaged in criminal activity.

this is quite dangerous trend, eric hoffer has this book called true believer describing this. i mean, revolution is really the costliest way to achieve one's political goals but blunt disagreement to the other side without any kinda tolerance to a more centrist view is driving society towards revolution. i would go so far to say that biden does a lot of right things in that regards of keeping that kinda pressure low but i think there are still very fundamental issues to the solved. oh well that's my two cents what do i know.

I have no qualms with a revolution, if it is a new and improved version of a revolution, one not seen by man before.

there are a few revolutions that were good throughout history you know, like the british one or the chinese one that got rid of the emperor. but there are too few of them and afaik the british one was really the only one that has a positive and lasting benefit. and then there are independence wars and uprisings, america, india, etc. but in that case the enemy is a foreign one not a domestic one. in other words you do not have to live with them once the thing is over. so if you were to trade social change by investing in revolution per say, it's not a very good investment when you look at the historic data. or else you're looking for a different word.

I don't really see what you are trying to say. Should we not desire to revolt against these parasites and build a healthy future for ourselves?

Because in a world where survival requires both good and evil actions, evilness of a person can only be known in comparison. And with how evil leftists have become, everyone else appears less evil.

All government and authority is evil. Left AND Right. They just take turns being lessers.

Free people create wealth, wealth demands a state for protection from other states, the state justifies its growth by taking credit for what people do, removes their freedom by trying to govern them. No freedom - no new wealth, the state starves and collapses, people suffer and relearn freedom, freedom leads to new wealth.

Don't rehash and defend the old shit. Before there was ever wealth there was corruption. Power corrupts absolutely. We've been trapped in these cycles since before time. We need new paradigms.

When decisions are neither punished nor rewarded, morality becomes randomized. This is the source of corruption.
Survival is normally hard. Bountiful lands where it's easy, are rare. For those who live there, constant natural corruption leads to constant natural degradation. Their countries are doomed from the start.
We aren't as reasonable and free as we think we are. While it's technically possible to accidentally learn the secret of self control and become a genius, geniuses are rare. For most people, wisdom is scarce comes from pain.
Spiritual techniques are old and plenty. Now we can also edit genes and make cyborgs. What else do you need? The mind moves toward immortality and freedom because they can solve all its problems, permanently. And it will get there, if not in this cycle, then the next.

" When decisions are neither punished nor rewarded, morality becomes randomized. This is the source of corruption. "
So eloquent and true. Too often not considered. Now trickling down into society.
" We aren't as reasonable and free as we think we are. While it's technically possible to accidentally learn the secret of self control and become a genius, geniuses are rare. For most people, wisdom is scarce comes from pain. "
More sage wisdom.
As I often say: Half of everyone is stupider than average and most of the rest are really close to average.
