- trinsic2 4y agoI think if we look to aesthetic principles like the "Solarpunk" movement which came out of the dystopian example of "Cyberpunk". We create positive change by reinventing our visions of the future, not by tell people where we are headed. Deep down, we already know where we are headed, we just need to encourage a course correction like the example above.
- ajross 4y ago> Because sugar coating is not helping at all No, stop. This is exactly the nonsense I was talking about. There are no objective measures by which out society is getting worse in terms of government overreach or abuse of power. Things are getting better. Would you rather live under Hoover's FBI? In an internment camp? In a segregated neighborhood? It's good you see problems you want to solve. It's extremely bad that people have convinced you that you have to tear down the government to solve them. Because you know what you get when you tear down a government? Another government, with all the same conflicts of interest and none of the established rule of law. Historically, revolutionaries make things worse almost 100% of the time.
