I see what you’re saying, but it’s also worth pointing out how unbelievably biased and myopic human beings are. If we only ever did what felt right in the moment without trying to take a larger view of something then we’d let really foul systems endure which cause lots of problems for those that fall outside of the worldview of whoever is doing the charity.
What I mean is, we are flawed, and sometime we need to account for those flaws by relying on systems we establish. Sometimes that might feel weird or wrong, but that’s probably because our gut instinct is to adhere the “flawed” parts of our reasoning (which are the same parts that lead humans to be racist, homophobic, bigoted, speciesism, etc.)
