It’s not all or nothing, another way to think of it is:

How bad do things have to get for there to be an actual shift to making things better?

I would love to make things better one step at a time, I think our system is a great starting point.

But I ask myself the above question everytime things seem to be headed downward.

Events like Luigi is what I mean by things getting bad enough for something to push back.

Why do you think the shift will be towards something better, and not towards something worse?

That is kind of inherent in the question. If things get worse then they aren't getting better yet.

Things are getting worse. I'm not at all an accelerationist, but I think it goes without saying that things are getting worse and will continue to do so.

Maybe I'm an optimist, but I do think things will get better eventually, and it seems like a good question what that would look like.

I'm really glad I'm in the lower left because that's my favorite of the faces.
