Not Revolution

 

Under the law of ethical moderation, it would appear that social change should be constant but gradually achieved. Internal, constant, incremental change or reformation, not violent revolution, is much more revolutionary.

 

France in the 1790s, Russian and China in the 20th century, all experienced murderous, violent upheaval in their societies and none became classless bastions of human rights, freedom or republicanism after the events solidified.

 

Elites rile the masses and seek revolution from above, but it nearly always fails.

 

Change must come from below and be done thoughtfully, carefully, voluntarily, and peacefully.

 

Only bottom-up reform has a chance of improving the human lot, and it is best if the revolutionaries are conservative anarchist-individuator supercitizens.

 

Totalitarian nations are ruled by the Party, the elite, the ruling class: they have soul-raped the masses so that the entire society is a mass movement set in concrete, a pure hierarchy and class system, and all citizens are reduced to existing as ideologues, robots, slaves, enslaved, totally-group-oriented.

 

It is a cruel social arrangement that maximizes injustice, suffering; all are degraded.
