being right doesn't matter, only power. if you want what's right to matter, you have to impose it with power. there is no alternative to this reality.

@0x00string Sadly - in the quest to gain power to do whats right - most forget whats right.

@monkee and in the quest to transcend the inescapable carnal reality we live in, many do nothing and bathe themselves in a sense of superiority for it while billions suffer.

@monkee yes, power corrupts. this doesnt mean the rot should never be cut away. no new world can be born while the olds carcass remains animated by the desperate.

@0x00string I am tainted. The Swiss Pirate Party was captured by a multi-millionaire. We let it happen cause we needed the money to gain power. It destroyed everything. Now only a irrelevant shell is left.
I am not saying we should give up - but i do not have much hope left in me.

@monkee trying to build something within the rotting carcass of the old world doesnt help the new world be born. advocate for the world you want and save enough hope that you might be here to see and help it be born, so that maybe others who come after us wont have to suffer these ways.

@0x00string We have direct democracy in Switzerland. So theoretically we - the people - could change everything.
In Reality - 2 weeks ago swiss people voted AGAINST an Inheritance Tax for wealth over 50 Million with 80%.
The biggest jail is in Peoples mind. They are very afraid of any change.

@monkee oh word, ive heard switzerland has direct democracy. do yall have capitalism? what monied interests operate the state and economy there? (rhetorical and loaded questions)
capitalism will prevent any real necessary changes and itself is a doomed ideology that will kill us all and destroy the habitability of the planet for our species if allowed to continue in the worst case, and eternally enslave our entire species in a spiral of darker and darker loss of humanity in pursuit of ever vanishing profit above all else.
capitalism must be destroyed, it is machinery that allows the old worlds carcass to carry on.

@0x00string Destroying Capitalism is needed.
ATM a Democratic state is the only thing giving us affordable healthcare and such, if we destroy that before capitalism, it will get way worse very fast.
"trying to build something within the rotting carcass of the old world doesnt help the new world be born."
Is exactly that high and mighty you accused everyone else of in your OP. Shaming anyone that tries to better what we have.

Dictatorship and Capitalism are natural allies.
If you know of a less evil system than social democracy please tell me.

@0x00string i felt a bit attacked for working within the rotten carcass of the old world which apparently does not help building a better world.
Did not want to accuse you of anything and sorry if i did somehow (i genuinely do not see it)
