    Ahh, who cares, we're just drumming up another existential crisis narrative again. Governments must spend trillions now to fix the ice problem, otherwise we're all going to die ter…

    Democracy + Capitalism was supposed to bring freedom to the world.. instead it bought domination, and realization, that it all comes down to who holds the power. The typical classi…

    The funny thing is that as long as you render any kind of services on any level, they are inevitably to society, you're already benefitting it. Society has exploited your skill, an…

    It's amazing isn't it? Principles, ethics.. all talk for a lot of people, situations like these show it. Watch them spin it as a good thing for humanity as a whole. Amazing.

    Hah this article. Was this even wikipedia? So it concludes that we need to take down the Patriarchy and the Sexism in India. So I was right. We need to intervene in their society, …

    Who the heck is society? That's just us. But we don't come together and decide like that, so I don't think society exists in the abstract the way you think it does. It's more like …
