This is a good question. If we are successful, it will look a bit different for each willing member.

like how? so like, github has this social impact tag, which has many social impact projects, some of which are pretty nice. lots of these are lefty projects or at least done by lefties but there is a full parler download kinda thing trending a while back. so being a programmer in real life, that's what i'd do at first: contribute to projects proposed by trusted people, like richard matthew stallman and such. i can see how others in democratic countries take to the streets and manipulate the market on reddit and such too. are your ways like these?

    i would not call those projects 'manipulating minds' though. if you were to spend this much time talking about this subject with me you must care about this to a reasonable degree (or else quit this and do other things). backing things up has no effect on other people other than telling them 'look, those things also exists'. and this access to information, to both sides of the isle, so to speak, is quite important to a healthy mind imho. we make decisions based on what we see, and if that can be manipulated we're pretty much done for. in that case, no matter how sane we are we are but puppets to the sum of sources of our information.

    i have no idea of a good part of what you said, honestly, like what 'embryonic children' means. please be clear.

      well, revolution always starts with the mind. eric hoffer has this book called 'true believer' in which he analyzed this in detail. to a sophisticated politician, arms are just means to an end and the end is oftentimes a belief or an ideology. this has nothing to do with the level of technology and has everything to do with human nature. for a more dramatic story, see' brexit: the uncivil war'.

      now, i believe one needs to make up his own mind after presented with a complete spectrum of information.

      i have no idea what these 'true creators' and 'embryonic stages' came from. is this your own theory or could you provide a source? is this more from a philosophy or from 4chan (based on the attitude toward big corporations there) or something in between?

      No, this is personal experience, mixed with accurate words that fit the experiences better than any other gathered words. Since they do nothing for you, I must assume you have not had any similar experiences.

      You seem willing to jump back on the merry-go-round of past revolutions. I think it is Incubus who says "To resist is to piss in the wind." and that is what I think of when I read your words. You might resist these parasites, Mr. Blowinthewind, but you'll just piss all over yourself if you don't start using your mind. For one thing, you haven't been careful enough to make all of your starting letters upper-case. Maybe you should sharpen your mind before wondering how people could/should rebel.

      This is what I mean: weak minds will not solve the current issues. Get a strong mind. To do that, you will grow, like an embryo in some metaphorical womb. If this is still too confusing for you, then learn how to become more analytical, or even poetic. You'll have an easier time tracking with reality.
