160. the solution to all problems in society, is to organize democratic
majorities and implement the desired results. it is that simple. therefore, if we can not come together and agree on what will benefit the majority, the tyranny of the minority will continue. most "far" advocates understand this, and prop up their desired goals. in the case of the "far left," the goals usually consist of something along the lines of implementing all human rights for all humans. if the "moderates" (a term not yet defined in this thread) do not agree with the goals, then they divide the potential majority, thus preventing the organization needed to implement changes that will result in a more just society. when this occurs the "moderates" become coservatives and defenders of an tyrannical status-quo. i believe that this comes from the "i am doing alright" mentality, usually in terms of economics.
