    Nonsense. If you work outside of the system that exists, you won’t ever make meaningful change on that system. You’ll only ever make it harder for the people who have accepted reality and are working from within the system to change it. You can’t do that from the outside short of a full catastrophic collapse, no matter how much noise you make.

      The real nonsense is believing that change can only come from within a corrupt and broken system.

      History shows us that real progress has often come from those who challenged the system from the outside, refusing to accept the crumbs offered by those in power.

      I’m not here to wait for “catastrophic collapse” but to push for the kind of meaningful change that the establishment fears.

      If working from within has been so effective, why are we still stuck with the same old problems?
