how do you know which people will be effective?
The message disseminates down to the local groups to see if anyone wants to volunteer
The state apparatus will end up killing more people than ever before if we let it continue
I really just don't see how that can work as an effective and efficient problem solving mechanism on a global scale
First we need to ask what global problems are there really?
Global warming is the big one obviously
Its already too late you know right?
the depletion of natural resources by capitalism, the need to feed an overpopulated planet
Myth
the massive wealth disparty currently exsisting
We have the food to feed everyone we just throw it out because no one buys it
Too late for what and what is a myth?
and Capitalism will be abolished
yeah but the redistribution will be a massive effort that needs to be coordinated
On the local level
or people will end up suffering unnecessarly
no
its a global issue
you cant redistribute resources in the congo and call that equality
they need to come from where they are most abunant to where they are most needed in an organized, planned way
I mean you can, without capitalism they can diversify their economy and without the state apparatus they no longer worry about border disputes
And the councils, if they feel it is a global issue, can kick the issue up to the international level
the damage capitalism has done will last for decades if not a century or more
I disagree
It will last until the end of the revolution
I think you are not aware of just how much damage is being done to the ecosystem alone right now
Our ecosystem is fucked
Or to peoples minds
permanently
and People's minds will be freed during the revolution
it's in an unsustainable decline and we need to stabilize it and overcome the consequences of climate change
that's fairly optimistic, capitalism is very good at making slaves
Its already too late though, the damage is done permanently to our planet
and freeing slaves takes more than to break their chains
It's even better at hiding its slavery
we can mitigate the warming through control of carbon emissions still
but yes many things are already going to create huge problems
that's exactly why it will be hard to free the slaves, they didn't even know they were in chains
and then you ask them to give up some of their wealth and comfort to other people?
how would you deal with the inevetable counter-revolutions?
Would it be considered a revolution if it's against the interests of the majority?
