Upvoted because I like the topic, however this is a very confused post. Most examples given are not rational means to any end I think I have.
I'd love to see a post explaining why you think any of these recommendations are rational.
Doing nothing (or rather, doing what I'm already doing) conserves the resources I control, allows me to make better decisions later, when I have more information, and has intrinsic value (pleasure/leisure) to me.
I agree now that it was somewhat confused.
Do you mean you don't share their ends, or think they're terrible means?
I mean I can't tell from the article whether you're recommending a change in ends (and if so, based on what) or means (and if so, based on what). I don't see a path from your recommended actions to any ends that I know of and share.
Declaring the ends you're expecting me to support, and a path from your recommendation to those ends would let me give more specific critiques (or simply to join your campaign if you're right).
