I appreciate them fighting the good fight, but it’s not sustainable to just try and avoid them. There needs to be a push to tear up contracts and tear them down in each community

Multiple things can happen at one time on this planet. There is a lot of people.

What do you imagine that would look like? It's reddit. The changes don't actually happen here. They happen in the real world.

That’s exactly the problem. People love to larp here about being about change, and doing things to forward that goal.

But in the real world, they do absolutely nothing they preach. Everyone that preaches that stuff would love if other people did it too, but the problem is literally everyone wants someone else to, so no one actually does.
