like... trying to explain degrowth (or how a steady state economy isn't a stagnant economy), or decolonization, or sociocracy or all these other things...
vs explaining simple tangible steps to those things
like unions, worker owned cooperatives, removal of fiduciary duty, returning billionare tax rates to 90%, not screwing over a far away place for your own, intentionally growing renewables, stopping subsidies of fossil fuels, universal public services
they aren't in and of themselves the full marxist/anarchist utopia you're after
but they're basically capitalism speak for what you tangibly want our capitalist indoctrinated brains to do - no deprogramming required. we don't need to learn french to get started. would it be star trek? no. is it better than enshitification VC hellscape? yes.
