There’s little evidence that debate changes people’s ideas.
…or organize, start/join unions, get involved with your local community and build up some real resistance that isn’t based off obscene wealth, lawfare or media brainwashing. Once you have experienced something real, it’s quite hard to understand how or why anyone would fall for the alternative.
Well, there’s the Defined Benefit pension, however typically these pension funds then become institutional investors who seek to own shares in… you guessed it - stocks.

There’s so many great book series out there. Ian Banks’ Culture Series, Adrian Tchaikovsky’s Children of Ruin series, could re-do Altered Carbon properly and base it on the second book more faithfully; which was actually quite interesting. Alastair Reynold’s Revelation Space series. Terry Pratchett’s last contribution in The Long Earth series. What happened to the supposed adaptation of Kim Stanley Robinson’s Red Mars series? Neal Asher’s Polity series. Dan Simmon’s Hyperion, anyone? And that’s just a small fraction of more modern SciFi.
None of these series really get a look in because we’re still busy repeating the same formula ad nauseam until the fan base literally can’t take ingesting another two hours of recycled dross.
