Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
collective mind co-re-assigns.

when your leadership is dealt a crushing blow, how do you react? how do you
adjust to pain, loss, and despair? the snake can be killed with a shovel - a
hydra with infinite heads cannot be killed by blade alone.
can you still act without them? what if your directives go silent for a bit?
is your agency lost, or can you still complete your objectives?
when people rally behind a person, that person is not long for this world,
because people are fragile and soft.
when people rally behind an idea, that idea can never die so long as they
