David Neilson on Nostr: The system will not be changed by working within the system. The system will be ...
The system will not be changed by working within the system. The system will be changed with ideas. And one of the most important of these ideas is that voting doesn't change anything, Rather it lends legitimacy to the current system and helps keep it in place.
Real change will come through refusing to vote, stopping all other voluntary interactions with the government, and then sharing this idea with others. Ideas take on a life of their own and when they reach a tipping point they become viral. There is no way of knowing when this will happen, but when it does it will be fast.
There was a time when it seemed like the Berlin Wall was a permanent fixture in Europe, And then seemingly overnight it was gone. Within a couple of years the Soviet Union collapsed as well.
This can happen here, too. Don't vote. Pass it on.
