Yeah, just helping people around us to self-actualize = revolution.
Whether it be making the creative and business sides of things connect, we have to fall back into our affinity groups and try to affect change not on a 'local' level but on an immediate level.
I can't remember who said 'Think globally, act locally' but he was on to something.
We keep our eyes on the bigger picture (thanks to the internet), but we don't get distracted by all this 'protests' and other forms dissent.
What we need is effective players, agents, actors, all in the field, interacting in a dynamic and unpredictable, creative-genius way.
That's how we will tap into organic people power
Doesn't have to be 'local' in a geographic sense. Just do for the people you care about. The people you believe in. The people you want to support.
There is no macro-solution, one-size-fits-all solution.
It's a myriad of composite semi-progressive solutions being put in place that will enable a much bigger and powerful change to take place.
We saw what trying to overhaul the system looks like in the 20th century and it wasn't pretty.
Instead of trying to change the system, we should be trying to create and sustain ALTERNATIVES
Getting off the grid and having strong support networks is the only way we will ever wage a proper revolution
My 2 cents
