Me: Composting
Wish granted, now everyone is an insufferable narcissist, because they only love themselves.
Narcissists donβt actually love themselves, they desperately need the approval of others.
Wait, really? I certainly didnβt approve of the last Karen I encountered.
I wish we could learn from our mistakes.
To use the bins/trash cans and stop littering. Especially on beaches, parks, reserves and on the motorway.
Basic computer literacy.
I agree. It is insane that they donβt make sure people understand computer basics, now that our life is defined by computers. I hate that people are divided to the βtech savvyβ and βtech ignorantβ camps at work. It makes me question what sci-fi had me believe about βtechnologically advanced societiesβ.
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 didnβt feel this incessant need to convert others to their way of thinking, be it political, cultural, or religious.
As long as one person isnβt 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 Iβm shouting into the void for little more than dying with self-respect. Can we reason our way to revolt, already?
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 strikeβs picket lines, riot and revolt. Perhaps you shouldnβt 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.
