Since a revolution is the only way to get rid of the oligarchs in power at this point, I thought about sharing this Aristotle quote when it comes to the people that have achieved virtue.

It's Aristotle saying that the people who have achieved virtue are usually the least likely to rebel. I don't think he referred to just the high classes in society, but in our case I think it does apply. Why are the people with the highest amount of resources wasting their time in vulgar hedonism instead of fighting for a change? A similar theme that is the loss of ethics that comes with power seeking for a lot of people. The class struggle has gotten so bad in the last decades that the result is the Post-Modern disaster of a society that we live on right now.

There comes a day everyone has to decide if it is about him / her or the job. You can't have both.
