how do you protect those who most need to be protected (the ones who have the ability to solve the problems of the world, cure the diseases, figure out fair distributions of resources etc) while also trying to provision for a decent quality of life for all.
we don't even have the latter... but without special protection for the former we probably never will... but something seems wrong worrying about special protection for the former (in the form of appropriate quiet and appropriate temperature and internet and toilet paper and stuff like that) while some people don't even get enough food to be free from malnutrition. and others are too stupid to organize less money than i currently have to nutritious diets. and yet they are given money to forage freely...
the world is so f*ck*d up. it makes me want to cry. but yeah, sure. i have no empath.y and no social skills. because i don't have that whole 'i'm so upset the world is not one big massive orgy' desire that is supposedly normal.
