How closed minded they must be, to think everyone shares the exact same despair they do, as well as the inability or lack of creativity needed to envision a better future and a path that takes us there.

Lets do a test. Could you imagine supporting:

1. Banning of commercial advertising
2. Abolishing patents or making them free or extremely low cost to use to quickly adopt new / better technology
3. Nationalize all big news and social media companies and turning them over to the democratic control of their own workers (a cooperative)
4. Massive wealth and land redistribution

Most people can't because they have been programmed to see these as "holy touchstones" of their true religion, capitalism. And that means only economic power may rule, and there are no paths to the future except the profitable ones. They rather de-federate call socialists tankies and than to deal with the angry dirtbag left. They prefer to exist in a calm apolitical space with a total war on good vs evil.

So please don't insult people who can imagine many paths but also have the wisdom why all these paths are shut. It's just like a physics problem, you can't overcome the political energy worth trillions of dollars with a few measly millions of dollars of political energy we could muster.
