People always say "we can't do anything about it" when some bad situation happen.
Except it happens because it emerges from the collective behavior.
Now, one can't fight a all the fights, and I don't think somebody that decides to avoid this one is a bad person. But one should definitly pick up some fights. Choose some things to pay for, decide some things to consume or be part of, not just by the nature of it, but by the consequences of doing so. Although I do think like in the article that it's better to fight _for_ something than _against_ something.
Anyway, if one doesn't makes, on daily basis, regular, endless, conscious choices, one is not taking part of the world but is just passively living in it.
And that's how we fail to build a society.
- fireattack 8y agoWe don't necessarily agree on "what is bad" in this case, so I will leave that alone.
- sametmax 8y agoNobody agree on that. Bad and good doesn't really exist, it's just a line we draw so it's ok. That kinda of my first point really.
