I have a proposal for what I would suggest our next step should be once we get to that position, and I’d be happy to share it with someone who is genuinely interested. But you have to realise and accept that it goes against my ideology for me to act as if I have all of the answers. My entire belief system is that we can work together to find a solution, collectively, for what we should do next. If I assume I know everything and that we should all just do what I say, I would be no better than those I oppose.

I’m not going to defend Jan 6 for obvious reasons. There are plenty of left-wing solidarity movements we could talk about instead - Black Lives Matter, Occupy Wall Street, Defund the Police, the CHAZ. I would agree that none of those projects really achieved their ultimate goals, but they did somewhat progress them.

Things fail until they succeed. I’m sure you wouldn't have scolded the Wright brothers for continuing to try to build a flying machine despite prior failures.

What a bullshit cop-out. I have asked you multiple times what the next step is and you're now claiming I'm not interested?

That's two lies you've told about me now. That is coming close to trolling.

You aren’t acting in good faith, and you admitted as such:

You didn’t let me down, because I knew you didn’t have an answer
