I was talking about existing and current or recent governments, like the UK government or the Israeli government. Same with the USSR and the US
Pretty much all governments are exploiting people in some way
Doesn’t mean I believe that the very concept of governments is bunk
Personally I think that if our leaders were young people who had older advisors to educate and guide them, then we’d have fresh and authentic leadership with decisions coming from balanced perspectives, not just billionaire pedo dinosaurs who are one missed stairstep away from death
What I will say for sure is that defecting to any warmongering faction leads to the same decline that we’ve seen in genuinely good ideas like democracy, which is now a cover for fascism. Same thing happened to protecting Jews, which devolved into Zionism once wealthy warmongers infiltrated that idea. And the same thing happened to communism
Ideas. Are. Worthless. Anything can happen to an idea no matter how good it is

Thank you for the nuance,
My views are indeed a little more radical then believing that fresh politicians is enough to get a government that does not systematically oppress.
Though other then that i think on ideals we very much align. I would love to be wrong and see things actually improving.
Though that line of thinking is not going to save you from downvotes in this community i fear. Tankies are very passionate.

What must be done well is its execution
