On: Does Georgism work? Five years later

Agreed it doesn't change anything. You can change things if you're willing to destroy enough or promise enough and ask for forgiveness later.

You don't get it done from discussion; you learn if you should do it. But if everyone who disagrees is a "keyboard warrior" then maybe you won't.

I’ve followed the authors work for years and one important aspect to land reform is there is some people with a such a strong status quo bias that they can’t be reasoned with. If someone truly believes land use should never change they will just oscillate between arguments that are not coherent or well intentioned.

So the author is right that at a certain point you should disengage with these types and focus on racking up real world wins.
