    Been a protestor and activist for 10 years. I’ve been a medical advocate, a protestor, a community worker and volunteer, gotten a park built in my home town.

    What do you mean “Arson whack a mole” though?

    I also (unfortunately) went to school for business and the main thing these people are afraid is losing their assets because their assets are how they save money, and using shared assets is how they build their relationships with other companies.

    In a more salable sense, it’s the same premise as say, standing in a line to prevent ICE goons from accessing an ICE facility. You’re doing the same thing (rendering their assets less useful).

    I feel like you’re just dismissing the idea wholesale without actually considering it at all because you’re being an extreme elitist.

      Arson Whack a Mole is describing the suggestion that we commit to serial arson to motivate political change. Whack a Mole is a game where you whack the moles as they keeping popping up.

      People regularly die or are seriously injured in fires. It is an evil act as anyone who has been disfigured by fire knows.

      Yeah, I am totally dismissing the idea of becoming a serial arsonist. If you think that is elitist then there is probably something wrong with your ethics, morality, and reasoning skills.
