… do you think killing a few CEOs is going to stop the shitty healthcare system we have? It’s nowhere near that easy to fix this broken system. There are thousands of MBAs just waiting in the wings to take over and do the exact same things.
It’s not a solution, it’s a reaction, and it doesn’t fix shit. Just escalates an already volatile situation.
It only took a couple more civil wars, thousands of political arbitrary executions, 2 empiralist dictatorships and 2 monarchies to get a stable democracy about a century later.
Unstable government but still functioning as intended, no one has a clear majority in the parlement so a government who doesn’t talk to everyone is going to get trashed and that’s what happened. This was very democratic.
The US doesn’t have a parliament. Neither party talks to everyone. There are women and ethnic minorities in Congress, which is definitely not what was originally intended.
Non violent action has never brought power to the table without a separate violent movement adding pressure. Not even Gandhi or Dr. Martin Luther King.

France survived the Reign of Terror.

Time to get started then.
Yup. Better take the long view.
Semi-stable based on recent events.

This thread is about France, so I was talking about the current French situation.
People survive lots of heinous shit, that doesn’t mean it helps.
Modern France is better than monarchist France.
Mostly due to the efforts of a lot of people working to make things better through political and social action.
But hey, they had that one time where they killed a bunch of people, that must have been the reason their lives are so much better. Clearly

Built on the blood of the Terrors, executing many innocent people, including the man who was against the executions in the first place, Robespierre
“Against” > “For”
Even if it doesn’t, what is there to lose?
Your humanity.
You know, the thing you’re claiming the CEO doesn’t have
👏
10/10 retort, well played
Is it really more human to quietly accept a society where there are frequent go fund me’s for kids with cancer?
