You’re perfectly content to let Capitalism crush millions right now
When did I say that?
I think changing the system into something better sounds like a great idea. I’m being a hypocrite about it because I haven’t really done shit in an activist sense; that part is accurate. But if you ask me what I want, I want the system to change into something better. I don’t want it to change into something worse. How does that translate into me being perfectly content with the current system?
presuming every revolution will lead to totalitarianism
There’s a reasonable middle ground between “let’s ignore the history of the outcome of this strategy and assume it’ll be fine” and “every revolution will lead to totalitarianism, I’m content with the current system.” I am definitely not saying the second one, although I can get where it might have sounded like I was. In my opinion the truth lies somewhere between those two extremes.
