>>5767274Somewhat, sure, but they aren’t maintaining the system, just destroying it. Their actions aren’t sustainable- eventually it’ll burn itself out
>new secular and humanist moralityRise, sure- but it’s to incoherent to make sense, and I honestly believe most of their sheeple would go become Capitalist Christian and sing their virtues so long as their tribe pushed it- it’s almost entirely tribal politics, nothing with any real moral backbone.
>corporations and the free marketI’d argue that corporations themselves aren’t free market- they’re more legalized entities of the state, and thus it’s in their interest to distort and regulate the market for their own gain. This is how Big Pharma operates- regulate the market so heavily with bullshit that you snuff out your competition, then get the government to bankroll research while maintaining sole rights to its profit. In a more freer market, competition would regulate the market like in Vanderbilt-Collins Steamboat Wars.
>but I'm more inclined to believe that real belief and honest fanaticism existed in massesI am as well- you don’t get shit like the Münster rebellion without real belief and fanaticism.
>Countries like those are examples of systems that failed in converting their citizenry to something more amiable to them due to lacking the base for itIsn’t the the same for the Solviets? The USSR balkanization is comparable to the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
>noticeable amount of apathyI think that’s more the consequences of modern urban population density and an atomized society than anything else- like, why would you care about the community if the community doesn’t care for you?
>it's nice to actually talk without it devolving into strawmans and ad-hominem…We Scarecrows consider strawman to be a racial slur- I’m gonna have to report this hate incident to the Internetpol ;)>I feel like the current events are more of a pressure-release valve than anything substantial or permanentThat’s why you gotta recapture the institutions and staff them with sensible people- at the bedrock, it’s always been a people problem. It may not be instantaneous, but a long march is often what works best. Remember, the key to success is perseverance- don’t be demoralized into inaction, that reaction is what they’re hoping for.
>Wow are we actually having a civil conversation on 4chan? Color me surprised.I know, right?
Clearly this is a glitch in the Matrix- I’m gonna have to supply the strawmen to rectify the situation :V
