Losing my 20/20 vision killed me....

This quote is deceptively simple. There are not many people that could write from this place....

Don't waste your time. Say this: "Do you accept each individual is an end in themselves?". If they say no, tell them...they are a waste of your time....

The Ten Commandments are a weak attempt to capture what you can know through universality and humanistic thinking.

☠️😁....now we'll never get invited to the parties....

I feel as an individual citizen, I do this, but I do feel like only 1/3 of us are doing it. Or you could see it the other way, that the US has always been the worst of it.

🐂💩...if you believe this, you'll believe just about anything....

I cannot do this easily...temporary moment specific amnesia....

It leads to an extinction of universal values, but a detached consensual value system floating in an overall state of war could literally kill others to maintain itself while agents in the in group are good to each other.

...but we have to give ourselves credit sometimes and let what can be known, be known.

But don't forget...rationalizations for owning man as a commodity...well...through his never-ending service, anyway...☠️

If we can just avoid the worst...I think we would be in good shape....nobody tells others how to be EXCEPT where they disrespect the rights of others....

Absolutely...and they exhaust everybody else...truth takes a little discipline but is also freeing....

Each individual is an end in themselves in a system none of us created.....

Too lazy to do that...hopefully nobody notices....👀
 

But not equally with everything...this promotes relativism....
