A lot of people who desperately want the world to change are also deeply uncomfortable with the idea that they personally would have to make any changes whatsoever. But listen.
We have to make choices with our resources and right now those choices are guided by what is best for the ghouls who run the imperial core.
When we start making choices guided by what is best for the entire world, life will look different in the imperial core. Which is not to say that it will be worse. But it will be very different.

The oligarchs depend on our familiarity with the status quo. Even when it's destroying us on every level, there is a knee jerk tendency to cling to what's familiar in the face of the unknown. We have to consciously challenge that instinct.
Nothing will change until we change it, and so the first thing we have to do is dig the resistance to change out of our own minds so that we don't subconsciously keep getting in our own way.
