We don’t have any evidence to suggest it will get better.
We know how to make things better. We need to get off fossil fuels and capitalism. Hoping it will get worse won’t work. It will just get worse. People have made things better before. We are living in the success of optimistic activists who believed they could make the world a better place. We need to do the same.
I’m also not really sure what you mean by “more complete lives.”
How about making more money. Eating food and breathing air that doesn’t kill us. Working for ourselves and not billionaires. Having third spaces where people can be a part of a community, instead of being isolated.
I’m just against human life period.
This is literally the root of the flawed ideologies of our time. I implore you to reconsider. We are all in this together.
It all sounds great for sure, and I’d love it. But I just don’t think it’s realistic
Not with that attitude. We know how to implement socialism while maintaining a market economy and how to improve our democracy to achieve majority rule. All of it is logistically doable and well understood. What we need is the political will to do it.
