    Everyone in this whole world pretends to be a revolutionary and almost nobody is anything more than just another tool for a machine built for war and greed.

    the single most important thing you will ever learn in life, is when to recognize your level of expertise. It will benefit you to no end, and prevent you from making a fool of yourself.

    There are things that you are familiar with, and there are things that you are not familiar with. Be quiet, please. Just don’t say things. Unless you know explicitly, it will be productive, in which case, do say things.

      I think it’s better to get your opinions out there so you can face backlash when you’re wrong. Where most people misstep in this hypothetical is they rarely try to look at it from their opponent’s perspective and/or from an unbiased third party perspective, and instead radicalize further.
