    You’re misrepresenting what I’m saying into something that’s easier to argue against.

    I’m saying that the vast majority of people are comfortable enough (read: not literally starving) that they aren’t ready to go do something drastic. But they are annoyed enough to go do something less huge but still meaningful. I am encouraging people to go do that.

    I banded together with the other people in my building to get some rent concessions and force our landlord to fix shit they had left broken for months. It’s not overthrowing a fascist state, but it’s a start to working communally against a wealthier class.

    What have you done lately except yell at people who you mostly agree with but aren’t as cynical as you?
