        No. I’m just aware of the need for a charismatic leader.

        Civil rights had Martin Luther King. Among other leaders. The idea of doing this without leadership is the fundamental flaw.

            What we have here is Elon Musk helping out on Trump’s branding.

            Even Team Trump, as fascist as they are, are being run by entire teams of teams. The spokespeople are just that, speakers.

            A leader doesn’t make the decisions. The leader just unifies the people.

              I mean the guy with 5oo$B is probably the one calling the shots and less to do with branding. His branding is now being a Nazi. So again. Probably more there to exert control. Unifying people doesn’t take people. It takes math. Like unix, Linux, block chain, etc.

              Honestly a ‘folding’ esque blockchain democracy sounds kinda nice. We all use our computers to connect to each other anyways. Why not use it all to govern ourselves?

        If there is a leader, any leader at all, who’d try to lead the progressive cause? And one that people would really behind?

        That’d be a good first start. Even celebrities like Jack Black.

          Jack Black actively chose to call out his fellow band mates who made a mild joke about the assassination attempt that hit Trump’s ear.

          He’s not going to be leading any revolutions.
