      What a stupid fucking take on the situation. We, the people, either stand up and take the power or we let whoever wants it have the power. One bug won’t due shit to the chicken. A million bugs will devour the chicken.

        I think you are misinterpreting the comic. It shows the impossibility of changing the system from the inside, essentially calling for true systemic change instead of collaboration with it.

        (at least that’s what I meant when posting it. might be that I am misinterpreting it)

      Sorry are we supposed to be working on the assumption that there is some broad support for the mass revolt of the working class or something?

      Protest, rally, petition, write, learn, educate, participate, vote. Doing only one is not doing enough.

      This seems like a bad comparison because doesn’t the roach change the system by providing nutrients via digestion? Like if I eat vegetables my body will work better than if I eat junk food or straight up poison, which would give me the ability to make other meaningful changes rather than dealing with the health consequences. I guess I’m confused or overthinking this or something idk
