I dont really know if thats black pill. I think we’ll be okay if we can deprive the bureacracy of the cash it needs to wield power.

Black pill would be like if I said “ we’re all fucked. Theres no hope. Well all be microchipped by billionaires. Just surrender.” I just dont think it means what you think it means.

I suppose you feel discouraged because I said critical things about XR but I feel that that particular brand of activism is not productive. Its more like exhibitionism.

It's a black pill because there are no actionable solutions in your posts.

For example: "deprive the bureacracy of the cash it needs to wield power"

This is just an idea, not an actionable solution.

If the Democrat infrastructure bill passes, wealthy people will get a higher tax, to help pay for the infrastructure repairs. That is a partial solution.

No, nothing about XR has changed in the discussion. They are still part of the solution.

I beg to differ. If left wing and right wing working americans united and demanded an end to income tax that is an actionable solution. And I dont need to create a traffic jam to do it.

Tell me why XR is part of the solution. All they do is self promote.

Its like PETA. I used think PETA was good because yay animals right? But after awhile I realized it was just a scam. They didnt convince anyone to stop eating meat or change their behavior. They just raised a lot of money for themselves and promoted a bunch of dumb celebrities to get naked “for animals” a meaningless gesture that only alieanated the average person. They were like egomaniacs that cared nothing for animals.

XR seems to be like that. They are flashy and making a name for themselves by lying in the streets or making some big dramatic gesture. But no solutions.

No - not actionable. Impossible.

(And if there were no taxes, there would be no money for important government regulations and services that preserve a good quality of life.)

I've told you. It's strange that you keep asking.

No - not what either group does

Sure it is. XR could just burn down the capitol until they relent?

(And if there were no taxes, there would be no money for important government regulations and services that preserve a good quality of life.)

Government regulations and services are not preserving a good quality of life any more than chase bank is. They are the same and they are the enemy of working people

I've told you. It's strange that you keep asking.

Humor me and repeat it. Tell me how XR plans to fix the world besides getting people to look at them

If you think PETA is a friend to animals you should do your research.
