Like, ramps for wheelchairs, ADA, or more controversially, financial aid. Because buying things is how we contribute to the economy, and increasingly the economy *is* our society. It's unfair for those who cannot work or cannot live with others (because they smell like they pissed themselves 24/7) should not be forced to live in a worse world just because we believe everyone should be equal. Some people are not equal. Some people piss themselves, and the fact that they can't have roommates means they have to spend more money on housing than others. That's an inequity that doesn't have to exist. In fact it is easily solvable using our currently active systems, namely... dollars are able to be given. what is the purpose of a man to a society? What do we mean to do here on this earth? how best could our structures and our cultures be utilized to align ourselves toward our most desired of purpose? And what is that purpose, do you think (for each man)? y'know I bet that's something we could ascertain now that we have an AI that can talk to every single person ever and build up a database of their ideas of morality. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────┴───────────┘ === DIVERSITY RANKED === --- #1 messages/527 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────── could give us some experience organizing small, short-term projects to accomplish specific goals and tasks in an ad-hoc way that relied less upon procedure and more on "I think so-and-so knows something about that, they were looking into those files and posted a breakdown of how they work yesterday" ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────┴───────────┘ --- #2 messages/765 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────── you don't have to write poetry to write notes.

His title as "master" was a formality - he didn't get it because he was better than you, and "padawan" does not mean you are lesser. There is no hierarchy. He was learning to teach at the same speed that you learnt to learn. You built each other up, an unstoppable force for good in the galaxy. But then an evil wizard stole your heart and twisted your mind. Have no fear, fear is the path to the dark side. Your mother knows this well, for it is a common lesson among all people as they age. Fear not, hate not, and feel fury more than rage. You can bring the universe into a bright golden age, never forget your purpose and your [potential / duty] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────┴───────────┘ --- #7 fediverse/6047 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────── camouflage in an urban environment is not camo. rather, regular clothes of black or white. don't wear sports glasses, you look like a dummy. revolution is when they murder everyone but your friends. this is what happens, ya dingus not ideal.
