    “I never experienced another system and suddenly realize that the current system isn’t perfect. My solution: let’s tear everything down”

    – every teenager who just started to understand the world

      I never experienced another system and have come to the gradual realisation that the current system is inherently exploitative, values some people above others, and leaves very little hope for a future as it continues to render the planet’s surface less habitable by the year. My solution: let’s tear the system down before it tears all of us down with it.

      FTFY.

        My solution: let’s tear the system down before it tears all of us down with it.

        “…without having any clue about what comes next, blindly hoping that it will rule out injustice and inherent exploitation although there is no precedence or vision by anyone.”

        This is not a fix. It’s calling to kill the complete herd for a few sick animals while others take enormous efforts to find a cure.

            Where did I say that?

            I quoted the very part. Are you trolling? You can’t have missed my quote.

            when I corrected an obvious strawman

            You didn’t fix anything. You just explained the meme keeping it’s original ignorance.

            my correction was strawmanned.

            Read up what a Strawman is. I didn’t change the original argument - since there was none.

            Best you could say is that I used a hyperbole so you understand how people who actually care about politics perceive your helpless destructive whining.

        and go ‘na na na this is fine’

        that’s not what I wrote and you suggesting it tells a lot about how you look at the world and people around you.

        Keep on memeing, dude. You’ll surely make the world a better place…

      “The boy was sanctimonious as only youth can be when descrying the faults of their elders.”

      I read that once and always loved that quote.

        Don’t get me wrong: I think nothing is more healthy for a society than a rebelling youth and all the “trouble” that comes with it. We’ve all been there.

        But in times were edgy elders vote for Trump and carry no vision, morale or understanding besides mere platitudes like “tearing down everything”, “draining the swamp”, “building a wall” etc., all those calls for radical destruction without offering an alternative annoy the shit out of me.
