Sad times. I wonder if I will live long enough to see the judgment of history.

The blackpill: you won't. Revolutions don't actually happen. What you've been led to think of as a revolution is really just powerful people marshalling masses to help knock over another powerful person's applecart. That's unlikely to happen under transnational neoliberal progressivism.

A perfect stillness, like a perfect chaos, can be destroyed with the slightest of action. The more stagnation or chaos there is, the less power you need to knock over that cart. While it's true that people can't combine themselves into one thinking entity, it is possible to reach a point where literally anyone can take power.

Thank you. I'll take that as a message of hope.
