@susankayequinn @jimray But then people will reasonably point out that you and I _cannot_ take away their drill; that's the whole reason it's so demoralizing. No matter what good we do, they will keep making the problem worse.
IMO the best phrasing I've seen so far was "the world-destroyers are acting quicker than expected, so we have to move faster than planned as well to save civilization"
@pixx We can (&have been) taking away drills collectively. Just because we haven't taken all the drills (&yes, the world-destroyers are acting quicker than expected) means we need to work to convince people that collective action IS possible. The narrative that this is impossible is part of the problem. It's not. We need narratives that show how power actually works in the world and how you effect change. That's a narrative the drillers desperately do not want you to hear.
