To me both work and both won’t work. It’s just up to what you can deal with or clears your conscience.
If enough people left because of this, the problem would be solved, the dog would lose its teeth. If enough people fought the problem, the problem would also be solved.
The reality is; a ridiculous amount of the population will even consider they should be doing something. Not only they won’t, but they will fuel the war machine, vote the vilains to power again and again, buy whatever propaganda they are sold that makes them feel without guilt and still enjoy a first world life built on the exploitation of weaker countries.
Even here, with more informed people we get people posting constant brainwash about scape goats (chinese, immigration, whatever bullshit they watch on tv).
If enough people cared the problem wouldn’t even exist to begin with. How powerful is the military, big companies, etc, without slaves to serve them?
So, it’s whatever makes you feel better. To me right now is trying to make sure I’m not helping the problem to get worse. I don’t care if everyone else is evil and happier because of that. I can’t convince anyone to change, so I just want to reduce my own guilt.
It’s the classic dilemma: Leave to avoid being part of the problem, or stick around to fight the problem. It’s something I keep thinking about.
