I think about how we read history books and it's all simple "X happened, then Y happened," even if the events are years apart. It makes it feel like change happens quickly, because we're taught about it in retrospect.
It's frustrating how so many people today seem to think, "Well, a revolution hasn't happened, so I guess it never will." Are we that accustomed to immediate gratification that we can't recognize that such large shifts take time? I see things slowly unfold and think, "How awesome that we're moving in this direction!" But there are inevitably multiple downers complaining that it's not happening fast enough.
You realize that revolution in my sentence was referring to a lot of people dying and your quality of life going to shit for years, potentially even decades right?
Its by no means a desirable concept to anyone with empathy or brains. You may not even come out on the winning side. In fact, the way it looks now the good people would lose almost immediately.
Perhaps though, I am misunderstanding your comment (very possible) and you're talking about the non violent, productive type of change that I was also referring to?
Of course! Violence would suck, and I'd hope it'd be a last resort. We're talking about changes using the "ballot box" here, not the "ammo box."
