    Maybe. But the point of the analogy is that people under incremental changes are far less likely to revolt against those changes. Not that people under incremental changes eventually revolt against those changes.

      You dont know when change, small or large will happen. You keep acting like you, who are you to say? There can be days where years pass by, and years where nothing changes. You have no idea when things will pop off.

        It’s true, I don’t know the future for sure. The unstated subtextual disclaimer of every Lemmy comment is that these are all just our opinions. I’m totally OK with you disagreeing with me, as you don’t know the future either. Are you OK with me disagreeing with you?

          Then stop acting like you are the knower of all things in the future. You can disagree with anything you want, idgaf

            Acting like I’m the knower of all things in the future? I made a single prediction once. I didn’t even argue on it’s behalf. You’ve just been freaking out over one stranger having a different opinion than you, once. And I’m not down to play psychotherapist with you to get you past that. Fuck off.
