      It might as well have been the guy next to them and they still don’t care. 10 more won’t have any impact. 100 more and you’ll just invoke a strong resistance and crackdown.

      You could stop an infinite number of bad things happening to bad people by just promoting progressive political reform, instead.

              Cuba went directly into Dictatorship, have you ever heard if Fidel Castro?

              France went from Monarchy to a Liberal Democracy much like the USA went from Colony of a Monarchy to Independent Democratic Republic. If thats the sort of big changes you want to happen then theres not really much to be changed, we’re already at the endpoint of that pipeline, you only need to convince people to vote for the policies we need to achieve happiness.

            You have no clue how violent the global labor movements were. Every one of those rights are written in blood.
