...are those who will lose their power and influence once things change.
They are going to fight tooth and nail. They are going to do whatever it takes to retain their position in our society. I feel like they would be more than willing to let it all fall apart rather than admit their time is over.
We need to understand this. They are not going to fight because they are making things better, they are going to fight because they don't want to lose their place.
Even when 'losing their place' is what is sorely needed.
Yes, these are debates that are long overdue. They have to happen and we need to figure out a way to move forward without repeating the mistakes of the past. We need a more progressive posture. Pandering to the old ways and the old greed is what put us here. Not changing them would just set us up for another orange gibbon to jump in the second they wave some money around.
