    Woody Allen, as flawed as he is, had a good quip about enjoying whatever brings you pleasure without feeling guilty.

    The world isn’t going to get better. Evolution created a system where those bereft of morals make the rules. It’s literally in our nature to lie cheat and steal. Current humans are a statistical anomaly, aside from the tastier class.

    Remember everyone, if your utopia relies on the idea that everyone just peacefully gives up their power, it is doomed to fail.

    IMHO: We all should strive to be the change we want to see in the world. But sometimes it’s even enough to just be the person that you wish to see in the world more often.

      Tbf the chance I want to see in the world is “common sense” tho, so not much I can get better upon to help.

      Like people are geniuenly trying to make fascism popular again so what am I supposed to self-improve at, punching?
