#people historically and currently have fought and died for revolution and liberation dont act like its inconcievable

[determinate-negation]

its depressing how americans can not seem to comprehend the idea of making a sacrifice for something greater than yourself. of having convictions that youre willing to fight or die or suffer for. im not even talking about the act of sacrificing something, thats a decision that requires a lot of will and bravery and dedication, im not going to say that everyone is obliged to or even capable of doing this. but to not even be able to understand doing something for a higher principle or collective good or out of a belief you strongly hold. to be strongly enough convicted of something act on it, regardless of whether you have to sacrifice something– this appears literally pathological and confusing to people
