If so, was it polled somewhere?

    When you talk about social change via the killing of landlords being a good thing, and having knives to their throats, well the police already disagree with that. I took that as a given that you didn’t care. So they could do that now, they don’t gotta wait.

    But here’s the point. We have established someone might not actively pursue social change that they know to be right because it would incur some personal cost, but they wouldn’t hinder it either. I’ve got less issue with them.

    I have most issue with people who actively hinder that social change.

      Of course i care. Don’t be foolish.

      Remember this started off with talk about Mao’s policies.

          I don’t care what the police think about Mao’s politics. That doesn’t matter. I care whether the police think they can shoot me to death and get away with it freely.

            My apologies, I was under the impressiom you were listening to what I was saying

            But here’s the point. We have established someone might not actively pursue social change that they know to be right because it would incur some personal cost, but they wouldn’t hinder it either. I’ve got less issue with them.

            Clearly you aren’t, and taking to you is pointless.

              Sorry for not being willing to get shot by the cops without accomplishing anything that matters, I guess.

                You wish for change but are unwilling to affect that change. While being mad at others that might also want that change but are unwilling to affect the change for you. You are mad at them to the point you have suggested their murder being a good idea. Your impotent rage is less interesting but, this is the hypocrisy I have highlighted in you. See it, don’t see it, makes no difference to me.

                There’s a joke in driving that everyone more extreme than you is unwise and everyone less than you is unskilled while forgetting that everyone is still driving in the same direction. I see that same observation in activism and I’m unwilling to kill people driving in the same direction reserving my anger for those actively driving in the wrong direction you do you though.
