That sounds like a terribly bad intention to me. Significant destruction of social order leads to either authoritarianism or anarchy. Neither are even remotely desirable. The only sane path to deep, lasting, but also healthy change is to systematically work on each specific sector - only dismantling while building something better at the same time. Otherwise you are just an agent of suffering. This pathological egoism does not qualify, even remotely, as "don't mean bad".
- mrtksn 1y agoSure its bad but its worse for those who have it good. Also, people don't plan or predict every outcome, they just want change and when that change is denied that's how we have civil wars. It all starts with a peaceful protest or some petty grievances and keeps growing when ignored or dismissed.
- sgc 1y agoYes, people do terrible things by neglecting their moral duty to actually think things through. This is a very basic known truth.
