Not to mention all the people who are wrong on the internet who need to be told exactly how they’re wrong… I feel ya mate…

Also, fractions are easy as, and the cake analogy is nothing like the burger analogy.

If people took half as much interest in basic arythmatics as they do in tone-policing and what their peers are wearing they might actually know when they are underpaid or overcharged.

I hear where you’re coming from, and though the voting habits of my peers does cause me a lot of passive grief – I noticed that actively, the people that one would pigeonhole as “fascist” in the binary political groups we now seem to operate under, are just as there for me in times of need and have many overlapping interests as my more progressive peers.

Ultimately what I’m saying I think is, there will always be monstrous outliers who will enact harm on society and empower the worst aspects in everyone by example alone, but I think there will always be many more generally decent people who look after one another and keep this (*gestures wildly at everything*) going, despite these few bad actors.

As for accountability, I wholeheartedly agree that these bad actors should face their just dues, but I’m not going to set myself up for failure by staking my entire world outlook on it when those at the top barely get a tap on the wrist. The world is unjust, but it’s also full of many wonderful people.
