i get the metaphor and trust is earned, but i fundamentally believe this:
why try to better ourselves, be better people, if change is impossible. improvement is only out of reach for the crabs (having already reached the pinnacle)

Planting trees when the world is on fire is the wrong time.
It’s be nice to have well trained environmentally conscious people who are capable of containing a wild fire, but we don’t.
