    I think the point is that OP (rightfully in my opinion) realizes that that is not possible without a collapse that results in a revolution.

    Our entire government and wealthy are wrapped up in defending their pedophilia. Invading US cities and kidnapping people (and foreign leaders). I think if you’re not praying for a collapse at this point you are still comfortable enough to believe the lie that this system just needs “fixing” instead of a complete replacement. There is comfort in believing that. I held onto that belief for a long long time. Even knowing history was against that belief in every similar case. But it would only be for my own comfort to believe that at this point.

      It’s not even only pedophilia, but every other kind of abuse, especially when abusers feel they ameliorate or are guilt free by half-informing the abused, or informing them in a way they know will be understood differently. Right to work, for example.
