Keep a million for fun, everything else, buy a very conservative and diversified portfolio, borrow against it and purchase real estate worldwide in places with water access and least affected by climate change. With profits start funding antifa, anarcho-syndicalist, ecosocialist, and similar movements.

Sir, here is your pass for "things whose end justify the mean", have a good day.

If you are buying real estate, you won't be funding "antifa" or any of the other things you are fantasizing. Profit-bearing RealEstate is directly counter to all of those movments, and once they start threatening you, you'll immediately pivot to funding the status-quo.

I guess you're calling me ignorant and a hypocrite without knowing anything about me or my value system.

My recommendation to you would be to read again and instead of assuming ignorance and hypocrisy, assume that I know very well what I'm talking about. And then meditate on it.
