    Well intentioned extremist

    Funny, that’s how people who want change is portrayed by liberal media in real life, too.

    I wonder if it’s a coincidence?

      It’s possible that well intentioned extremists really are more likely to have a negative impact and not cause any positive change.

      How many mass shooters have a manifesto? Often they’re upset about how things are and feel like killing a bunch of people will change things. But they just wind up killing a bunch of people and don’t influence anyone to do anything. Well other than copy cats who also just kill people.

      In real life wanting change isn’t bad. But using violence is bad and doesn’t result in any positive change. The use of violence makes people feel helpless and so they want to see movies about heroes with superpowers that can take on violent extremists.

        Just like Batman, eh?

        So as long as your desire for change doesn’t actually threaten the people at the top, it’s all okay?

        That is literally what the people creating this kind of propaganda wants you to believe.
