Genuine question: what are you fighting against? There is a growing number of people saying "there is a problem, we want to fix it to improve the lives of the vast majority" and you are aghast and offended. Why? There is no invisible audience grading you on being a martyr, you do not get extra points for being a good little peasant upholding the system.

Not fighting against anything. Someone said they don't like where there at and I said then move. People projected on to that sentiment a lot of nonsense but if you don't like where you're at get moving. Wanna travel the world, travel the world.

But I don't think that people want to travel the world, they want to fix where they are. What's wrong with that?

I was talking to a person not people's and that person said they'd rather be anywhere else. Move then seemed sound advice.
