What occasionally frustrates me is how every political faction, especially among Gen Z, is addicted to these all or nothing fantasies of burning society down and rebuilding it in their own image. Usually by force.
"We just need to remove [group]" (tens of millions).
"We just need to seize total control of the government."
"We just need another Hitler."
None of it happens. No progress occurs. Even if you could argue these radical solutions are for the better, they're essentially useless hypotheticals if you can't achieve them.
People are addicted to instant drastic results. They refuse to even look at what's actually achievable inside the current system. If it doesn't feel extreme enough, if it requires real effort from them, or if it accidentally helps a group they hate...they reject it outright, even when it would benefit them too.
If people want to say those things, that's their right. But I personally do not want to waste my life chasing a revolutionary fanfiction. I want to see positive gains even if they are small, and I'm willing to put effort into achieving it too. It's just hard to do when everyone else insists on waiting two more weeks for a civil war.
