My former intern (from a decade ago) was complaining to me today about the lack of leadership in the Gen-Z 212 movement in Morocco. I was trying to find out what SN had to say about it, but it's... not on SN?
The short version: there's a protest going on in Morocco, much like what happened in Nepal. The youth is asking the king to fire the government because they're corrupt and recently there were 6 cases of pregnant women dying because health care is bad. They've created a movement on social media, much like the 2010/2011 freedom protests throughout Northern Africa - it's organic this time though, no leaders.
Yesterday, two kids were shot by Police in the South:
Now, the Prime Minister is offering dialogue (after 6 days!) but I've chatted some people up and they said it will escalate further, because the PM is among those that the GenZers accuse of corruption.

It was on either on SN or nostr that I found out about it (can't find the post). Haven't seen anything on my usual daily mainstream media skim.

People naturally understand the need for good government.
It is essential people fight for good government otherwise corruption will continue and become more and more entrenched.
What corrupt politicians and governments love most is Libertarians who believe all governments are corrupt and so who GIVE UP on expecting demanding their governments eliminate corruption.
The price of freedom is constant vigilance.

You attack the messenger rather than the facts and issues raised.
Evidently you do not appreciate the value and importance of freedom of speech and the contest of ideas that it enables. Libertarians frequently demonstrate this arrogant and destructive anti-reason tendency.
Keep on slinging irrelevant diversionary bullshit that evades the issues at people who are trying to raise serious issues and demonstrating your inability to engage in good faith reasoned debate and dialogue.
Or perhaps, spare a moments thought for the Moroccans who are risking their lives to fight for better government.

Have I ever had a response on here that is not attacking/ridiculing me rather than the issues I raise? Sometimes though rarely from Libertarians who imo are mostly incapable of engaging in good faith reasoned debate if their ideology is ever challenged.
On this post I have contributed my opinion that the struggle to work toward less corrupt governments is endangered by absurd, defeatist and illogical Libertarian narratives that promote the belief that all government/s are bad.
You fail to respond to that argument and instead make the demonstrably false assertion that I contributed nothing.
