I never experienced another system and have come to the gradual realisation that the current system is inherently exploitative, values some people above others, and leaves very little hope for a future as it continues to render the planet's surface less habitable by the year. My solution: let's tear the system down before it tears all of us down with it.

FTFY.

"...without having any clue about what comes next, blindly hoping that it will rule out injustice and inherent exploitation although there is no precedence or vision by anyone."

This is not a fix. It's calling to kill the complete herd for a few sick animals while others take enormous efforts to find a cure.

Where did I say that? I think it's really funny how when I corrected an obvious strawman, my correction was strawmanned.

Without really wanting to take a side here, you could explain why his metaphor doesn't fit your real opinion instead of just saying it was a strawman, if you'd like.
