I know you believe you are on the right side of history. I know you believe you are fighting for justice. I know your intentions are good.
I believed the same things.
I was raised inside the promise. I was taught that we were building a fairer world, a more equal society, a system where everyone would have enough. I wanted what you want.
But I learned something you have not yet learned: the system you support cannot deliver what it promises, not because of bad leaders, not because of sabotage, not because of insufficient commitment — but because of structural impossibilities that no amount of good intentions can overcome.
I am not your enemy. I may be the most sincere and honest friend you will ever encounter — because I have been where you want to go, and I have returned to warn you.
You can dismiss me as a reactionary. You can label me as a right-winger. You can refuse to engage.
Or you can ask yourself: What if he is right? What if the system I support has been tried 122 times and failed every time? What if my beautiful intentions lead to ugly outcomes?
I am not asking you to abandon your values. Fairness, equality, justice — these are good things. I am asking you to examine whether the system you support can actually produce them.
Read my testimony. Examine the evidence. Then decide.
