Critical thinking, so everyone could understand that everyone else has their own shit that matters to them.
The world would be a lot nicer to live in if entire groups of our society didn’t feel this incessant need to convert others to their way of thinking, be it political, cultural, or religious.
As long as one person isn’t hurting or subjugating another, IDGAF.
It seems to me groups have people have been choosing a king to do their reasoning for them since the beginning of humanity. And, the application of computers to communications and profits has significantly raised the bar of adequacy for wise decisions while (US) educational efforts have been in decline for nearly a half century.
How do we encourage the critical mass of free thinkers to break the current paradigm, let alone the ancient one?
Sincerely, does anyone see some sort of plan here? I often feel like I’m shouting into the void for little more than dying with self-respect. Can we reason our way to revolt, already?

`twould be nice, but I see this as requiring a multi-generational solution. We need enough young voters to get out there and vote with their social conscience, to overcome the combined weight of ignorance, money and power.
Seems to me every single time Americans significantly changed their laws, they had to break laws, often pick up firearms, then boycott, illegally enforce their strike’s picket lines, riot and revolt. Perhaps you shouldn’t be speaking of the combined weight of ignorance of society. Maybe your time would be better spent reading a history book rather than attempting to teach nonsense like voting will change their material conditions.
How dare u think like this i demand you change your mind.
In all seriousness tho this would never work cos it is a belief that fundamentally goes against that of those who dont already hold it. I suppose we can use the pardox of tolerance to argue that we should forcefully (using violence if nessasary) convert people to this way of thinking.
Drive slower, you’re not in a rush, it’s all in your head, your home’s not gonna permanently locked away if you’re late, your office won’t explode if you’re late and if you’re already late to work you’re already late.
Drive. Slower.
Wish granted, now everyone is an insufferable narcissist, because they only love themselves.
Narcissists don’t actually love themselves, they desperately need the approval of others.
Wait, really? I certainly didn’t approve of the last Karen I encountered.
Empathy
Basic fucking decency would be a start
