Has anyone noticed how, Stationtone, completely avoided the Story of Your Enslavement video and The Matrix post? He can't even consider the possibility of his enslavement to the system.

Not me.
I tend to go with whichever I think will do the most for me and mine, either by accident or design.
I don't imagine for a second that any of them have my best interests at heart.

If you wanted to change things, it would surely be easier to do so in a smaller pond first.
5 million of your own people should, in theory, be easier to persuade than 60 million who look on you as a "sweaty" or 300 million who see you as just another
