"I have a dream"! That one day, every person in this nation will control their own destiny! A land of the truly free dammit! A nation of action not words -- ruled by strength not committee! Where the law changes to suit the individual, not the other way around! Where power and justice are in back where they belong, in the hands of the people! Where every man is free -- to think --to act -- For himself! Fuck all these limp-dick lawyers, and these chicken shit bureaucrats! Fuck this 24/7 internet spew of trivia and celebrity bullshit! Fuck American Pride -- fuck the media -- Fuck - all of it! America is diseased -- rotten to the core...there's no saving it... We need to pull it out by the roots! Wipe the slate clean -- burn it down! And from the ashes a new America will be born! Evolved but untaimed! The weak will be purged -- and the strongest will thrive -- free to live as they see fit! They'll make America great again!

What makes you think he's against any of that?

Oh yes, let's encourage a military earth on which the current society can't exist and anarchy rules, that always worked perfectly and wouldn't demolish our scientific effort and put us back on stones and sticks level, assuming we don't just die of global freazing due to the effects of nukes
>>
Human beings compared to other animals on Earth are weak as fuck. We're not stronger or faster or more durable than other predators; our biggest strengths are endurance (less relevant in today's society) and our intelligence. Our entire existence is based on what Armstrong claims to hate: the weak teaming up to fuck over the strong. Trying to get humanity to do otherwise requires a fundamental restructuring of the human brain.

Also, because birth, status and riches are already part of what's used to determine one's apparent wroth in TODAY's world.
If he wants to uproot the establishment and revert the world into a lawless natural state, then he better also have a plan to dismantle personal relationships, statutes and other elements that support said organization.
Or else your plans to live in a free world where you make our own laws end the exact moment that the nearest base commander with delusions of greatness realizes that he has a whole lot of soldiers who are still loyal to him and no overarching authority to stop him from declaring himself King of Freeville, Nowhere.

i don't see where he talks about ruling by strength having to come from elements that aren't birth, status, and riches.

Because that goes entirely against wiping the slate clean?
Alright, so let's presume that that's the case.
Armstrong is literally advocating letting the rich and powerful run free and skewer the poor on a spear and eat them.
There's no level playing field. There's no WIPING THE SLATE CLEAN. He's just eager to take away what little elements there are to keep the various components of the slate from abusing one another even further.

Why in hell would anyone support that? Unless you already ARE said base commander, what do you gain from supporting that? What does a common man benefit from that?

no, it just means he has a problem with the current people who are rich and powerful.
>>
>>332303456
...who will continue being rich and powerful after he dynamites the White House because, guess what, Armstrong doesn't give a damn about whatever speech he's quoting that day and just wants power and no government to inhibit him from being a starfish with an exceedingly large forehead.
It's baffling how one cannot see that his actions contradict everything he says. Hell, the goddamn Catalyst in Mass Effect had a better motivation, at least his plan was better thought of than this nonsense.

Yes he was right nigga.

People are too ungrateful nowadays.

And are just consumed with slow suicides like video games, porno, and drugs to see it.

My God...

no. someone will get a gun and shoot them in the head.
>>
>>332304151
>someone will get a gun, attempt to shoot them in the head, then be shoot down by their countless bodyguards
There Anon, I have fixed that for you.
Just like someone can just shoot Armstrong in the head, amirite?
>>
>>332304273
>then be shoot down by their countless bodyguards
no. there will be many people with guns.

>Just like someone can just shoot Armstrong in the head, amirite?
no nanomachines in his future.

>>332301052
LITERALLY TRUMP

>>332304151
How he gonna get shot in the head when the bullet can't even penetrate him
>>
>>332304764
>no. there will be many people with guns.
Many of which will no doubt be turning these guns against one another in a wild free-for-all for survival, fear, or just murderous glee. Why do you fool yourself into believing that the world will soon see itself united against the evil elites? The righteous fight against the CEO of PuppyKillers Incorporated does not keep your stomach fed for long. Shooting the farmer down the road in the leg and stealing his harvest does.
What also keeps your stomach fed for long? Joining the CEO of PuppyKillers Incorporated's corporate guard unit when he points out that he has enough connections to keep you and your loved ones fed and cared for if you just keep working for him, business as usual.

Outright dissolving government is bad. Doing so without undoing personal advantages is so much worse.

>no nanomachines in his future.
Baseless assumptions. The technology already exists, the method and the know-how already exist. He cannot undo that.

you keep making up a lot of things about what armstrong believes.

He's somewhat right. Right now in the world Corporations have more rights than people do.

I'll just graze over what you all said, and assume that you didn't actually play the game.

Raiden calls out Armstrong by basically saying he was blessed with wealth, power and what have you, and that it made him somewhat of a hypocrite.

Armstrong then said that Raiden literally started with nothing, and was able to make it where he was today with his own strength and determination, that his birth did not dictate how far he could get in life.

So Armstrong was actually right in a way. However that doesn't mean he is "right" in what he wants to do.
