Our population largely would willingly choose a long, slow boil in a pot over a sudden change to their way of life.
The comforts that come with living in the wealthiest land in the world are more than addicting, they’re dangerous to a society that’s still under threat of being exploited by men with designs on power and control. It’s so easy to leverage a comfortable population. An uncomfortable population is more likely to move, to get up and change something or resist a new order.
So our best hope right now is that things move fast enough to make enough people uncomfortable that our population starts talking in terms of “general strikes” and other forms of protest that will shut the country down long enough to purge the oligarchs either by sending them off or lopping off their heads.
And as weird as it sounds to say in the year 2025, yes I am on board for a revolution with guillotines at this point. When a ruler harms or kills many people for personal gain, they have forfeited their lives and have forgotten that we want rulers who serve us, not kings who crush us.
