I'm saying that the idea of some good people doing the right thing fixing the problem is naive and doomed to failure and a real solution to the problem has to be bigger than the lazy "just no one be evil" proposition you seem into to champion.

Where on earth am I championing that as a solution?

My mistake. I believed you to be proposing a solution to the evil proposed. Not idly judging people with no meaningful contribution toward making things better.

[–] uncouple9831@lemmy.zip 2 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Also not whats happening but that's fine

I do find it funny, though, that you think judgement is not a meaningful contribution as if that's not how the vast majority of change happens.

I'm curious how you'd characterize yourself then

It's not a meaningful contribution. Judging someone in person, sure. Judging someone when you have a platform people pay attention to, yeah. Random comment on Lemmy? No one gives a shit. I fully recognize my own pointlessness in all this, especially this far down in the comments.

I said you shouldn't be evil regardless of whether someone else is evil. It's not an excuse. That's not judgement, nor is it a solution, it's me saying you have a choice and there is a clear right answer. Would you rather be Steve Bannon or not Steve Bannon?
