You read a mythology book in your intro to western civ and wanted to make a big boy allegory?
Learn to express yourself you clueless half wit
Now fuck off, I’m done with you
Good boy- at least you can follow directions.
Begone peasant
Lol honey
You’re outmatched
Time to pack it in
Moving on- yeah incrementalism is probably more effective
Burning everything down rarely gets what anyone wants
See honey? I’m actually helping your argument- if you learn to express yourself clearly you can join conversations like this
Gish gallop of inane screaming doesn’t make me outmatched lol learn to think bigger, incrementalism is trying to be rid of the problem (hydra) one issue (head) at a time
Sorry you don’t understand ancient af allegory
Incrementalist Reform doesn’t work when you’re challenging the base assumptions of a system. If axiomatically a system relies on certain assumptions to exist, and you contradict those assumptions, you cannot incrementally transform it into its opposite
@Deleted User Also Third Positionism is a bad 19th century meme gone wrong in the Hood
It’s incoherent and doesn’t posit an actual alternative to capitlaism or socialism. It just entrenches capitalist hierarchy while allying itself with the most reactionary elements of the right with unsustainable hamfisted attempts at social regression
As a line of thought it should’ve died in the 20th century with all of the fascist scumbags propagating it as a part of their genocidal ideology
cutting one head off at a time so two can grow in its place rather than solving the issue at its heart
@Zandu so you literally didn’t understand what I was saying
no need to project
Wielding the levers of power is how nearly every positive change has occurred in America, including the revolution
Ok Zan, what do you think I’m saying?
`yeah incrementalism is probably more effective`
Yes, you’ve quoted me
What do you think that means?
cutting one head off at a time so two can grow in its place rather than solving the issue at its heart
solving it increment by increment
is trying to solve one symptom at a time
Is this a Marvel movie quote btw?
No.
no it's an ancient af allegory scroll up and learn to read
It means operating the levers of power rather than full upheaval
No, but is a Marvel movie quote, right?
Lol
Captain America and whatnot?
Hail Hydra?
What was it?
So Zandu, in this allegory, what does growing an additional head represent?
oh you mean you recognized the word "Hydra" from da big movie scween and that's the only association you have, I gotcha
you get rid of one dude who is causing issues only to find out there were two successors his office can be distributed amongst
it's just a costly battle with no victory to try to solve an issue that way
