An end to double standards and a more honest and actuate world in general sounds quite nice. Perhaps some guidance about where I fail to perceive or empathize.

An end to double standards and a more honest and actuate world in general sounds quite nice.
Perhaps some guidance about where I fail to perceive or empathize. An analysis of where I have a lot of opportunity to learn. A personalized tutorial on overcoming my particular failings in negotiating, relating, or investing would be helpful.
There are definitely ways we could apply these things to make ourselves miserable. That is unquestionable. A social presence based on who I and those I know are rather than who we spend our time and attention to present ourselves as many do on social media today?
It reminds me of the wealth thing... I'd rather be rich than look rich. Many keep themselves from being wealthy chasing the latter. I'd rather be someone who people, particularly myself, like than appear to be someone people like. I'd rather be known than be seen.
- eth0up 6y agoSincerity, authenticity and healthy humility are virtues. I wonder if our feeble to non-existent outrage for this new age of ubiquitous control is a quiet self-awareness of our own dishonesty, pettiness and teetering integrity. Maybe we know we are shit and want some form of automated atonement, eg surrendering ourselves as digital assets and prostrating before strange nannies. I'm not sure of wealth or admiration, but one can be certain that s/he'll be both seen and "known" in this epoch, mostly by the unknown and unseen.
