Tyler Durden had the right idea. Project Mayhem is what we need.
I'll be out of debt by the end of this year. I'll outright own everything that I've been calling mine. So given my luck this will happen just after I pay off everything.
And I'll still celebrate for the same reason I'd celebrate if everyone's student loans in the US were forgiven even though I paid mine off a while ago. Because it's the best thing for all of us.
unfortunately the backups are global. and banks have a lot of backups.
But the 10 guys only have one head each
indeed.
It would seem logical, that the adaption of that concept to modern times, would also require technical terrorism. Not just physical. And a wider spread. An effort most likely not being possible at all...
i prefer rebellion to terrorism. just stop obeying. that is all it takes.
Depending on the country, that could end worse, could it not? Try that in china. Try that in the USA. In some it might work, but wouldn't change anything because we aren't local anymore.
yeah the rebellion needs to be global. but it depends on the ones with access to weapons to also rebel. but imho terrorism only makes things worse.
Usually. And also totally unrealistic on a global scale. Look how futile it usually is locally. Only digitally it could lead to something. But that's also basically impossible.
yeah 100% agree with you. but no one really knows what tomorrow brings.
Tyler Durden was on the right track, but Elliot Alderson took it much further. We'd need both to do it right.
Tyler Durden's plan would have only been a reset. The system still remains.
But a reset of a faulty system gives times to re-evaluate and makes it at least work again. Temporarily.
That's the exact kinda complacency that led to these problems
I didn't say "that's the solution", but a temporary band-aid to ponder about bettering things.
I hate to say it, but a large number of people are ignorant, or even downright simple enough to be completely satisfied with the bandaid and will stop desiring positive change - leading to the exact same events playing out over again
But the elliot alderson way
