    You cant make a wardrobe out of hammers, but you can use a hammer to create a wardrobe.

      You’re not talking about making a wardrobe with a hammer, you’re talking about making a perpetual motion machine with a hammer, and when I ask to see the design of that perpetual motion machine, or how it resolves the fundamental problems with making a perpetual motion machine, you’re telling me, “Well, there’s not just one design, there’s lots of designs out there so one of them probably works.”

        I mean, does it really matter at the end of the day? We could argue all day about our ideological differences. When it comes to climate change odds are we already hit the point of no return. We can sort out our differences if humanity survives.

          It doesn’t really matter? So then you’re not actually serious about your ideology at all.

          If I’m going to ask people to risk life and limb fighting to establish a new system then I kinda think it does matter whether that system has fundamental, unanswerable flaws that can be exposed in four minute comedy sketch.
