[upbeat music] So here's my big revelation after being ass-deep in manifestos for way too long now.
The majority of manifestos, especially political manifestos, they secretly long in their heart of hearts to be one of two things.
They're either trying to be The Communist Manifesto, AKA Big Daddy, or, "When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume-" Or they're trying to be the Declaration of Independence.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness." [gentle music] When Thomas Jefferson laid out this argument so poetically, the solution wasn't everyone unite, nothing to lose but our chains type language.
We're outta here." "Whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation" To extricate yourself, to start fresh.
States from countries, the internet from the physical world, women from men and penile imperialism.
Here's all the reasons I'm leaving, all the reasons it's too late to fix this, all the reasons I'm gonna be so much happier without you.
