    the issue is you thought people were better than they are. they aren’t.

    I am very cynical, but my hope is that we can collectively improve our situation. I pull my hair out when people keep playing their tribal games. All they have to do is reason it out.

      people like it when collective improvement benefits people that look like them. they don’t when the people don’t look like them.

      the scandanvian models works because of the lack of diveristy. it’s starting to break down due to the influx of immigration.

      people are hardwired this way. it is incredibly difficult to change it.

        Is it hardwired, or trained?

        I have prejudices that are wrong. I know that they are wrong. I know the kind of futures that will never exist if I exercise them. I don’t know, if it’s nature or nurture.

          hardwired and trained.

          for someone to not be that way takes decades of specific training and a life of abundance. most people are never going to have that. most people don’t perceive their life as being abundant, even if it objectively is.
