How would YOU overthrow the System and which country to begin in?

The only way change is possible is voting with your feet, too many sheep in this country, can't make any meaningful change if the majority of the flock is ok with being slaughtered.

If I had godlike powers? Make sure every child born from that point on had a 150+ IQ, and wait. -
I would think it better to live in a fascist plutocratic oligarchy than abject poverty. When our economy and currency crash worse than they did in the great depression, I don't think you'll see illegal immigrants so eager to jump the fence.

My great grandfather, died in WWI. http://www.hmdb.org/Photos1/146/Photo146464o.jpg My grandfather died soon after he returned from Iwo Jima, crippled and full of shrapnel. My father did four tours in Vietnam with the navy in UDT before it became the seals America after 2001 stopped being a free country, the freedoms all our service men and women have sacrificed life and limb for are gone. We are no longer a free country, the bill of rights has been shredded. In 2008 many looked to Obama as a savior who wouldn't rest until warrantless wiretapping, domestic spying, secret overseas torture camps and prisons, the patriot act, and all the other policies, laws etc that violate the bill of rights were repealed, removed, closed, ended etc. That never happened, and it isn't going to happen, not in 2016, not in 2020, not in 2024, probably not ever. Right now if labeled a terrorist you can be detained till death, tortured, killed via drone strike, deported to some torture camp overseas, your email, communications, cellphone, internet history, everything is free game. Your private property can be seized, you can be strip searched any time, home raided, anything, anytime, anywhere. If you *** off the wrong official your gone. No privacy, no right to life, liberty or happiness, no personal property rights, no nothing. At this moment you are hamburger to be consumed if necessary. That's the reality of what our country has become.

While it's true we have more freedom than starving African children do, we are fast approaching China and Russia in terms of human rights.

Memorial day for me is a day to remember the freedoms we used to have that have been suspended for the war on terror. 1st amendment rights no longer exist. (Speech, assembly, press) 4th amendment rights no longer exist. (Unlawful search and seizure) 5th amendment rights no longer exist. (Habeas Corpus, due process) 6th amendment rights no longer exist. (Right to trial by jury, speedy trial, public trial, counsel) 7th amendment rights no longer exist (Trial by jury in federal court) 8th amendment rights no longer exist. (Cruel, unusual punishment) 10th amendment rights no longer exist. (Powers not specifically given to the Federal government are reserved to the states or individual)

I've lost the will to live, What the point of living anymore?

Focus on ending rebirth first, then if you still want to be an Einstein, metaphysician, trillionaire, Super Saiyan 4, Goku/Hugh Hefner/Ron Jeremy after that then go for it. -
viator is already a mod isn't he?

I also think he would make a great mod.

My motto is ****'s ****ed up, might as well fight, do the best you can with what you have. If you fail to end rebirth this round, if you gave it 100% at least you tried, better than giving up. -

You gotta work hard to prevent suffering during this lifetime too, life is going to suck for you in 20 years if you don't have an in demand skill you can make decent money at. Homelessness, serious health and legal problems, these are real possibilities if you give up on life and wait till your parents kick you out. -

You aren't an omnipotent god, when you die you won't become an omnipotent god, nor will you transcend space and time when you die. What will happen is you wind up back in a world like this one or not like this one, as a living being of some sort based on your karma during this lifetime. Now I agree this situation sucks ****ing donkey nut chunks. Killing yourself is just a reset button, and leads to a situation just like this one or worse. Not going to solve a god **** thing. Focus on breaking the cycle, there is only one school I know of that at least claims actually have a method to accomplish this. Feel free to PM me if you are interested, if not please keep me posted if you find another means to this end. -
Simple solution, if something you want say here can't be, say it somewhere else where it can. WWROA created a forum just for this purpose, so you can vent without fear of it causing your account to be banned, or what you say being censored. Easy solution imho.

I am sure that because it's running pc hardware that it will be cracked wide open and a standard pc with similar or better hardware will be able to emulate them in full, minus online play, pretty much all the major games will be easily ported to pc anyway because they both use pc hardware.

The best solution imho is to vote with your feet.
