Broadly gestures at the world

I’m going to add to this. Any homogenous system you suggest rejects the subjective nature of morality, and needs to be enforced through force. Unevolving, nonreactive, subject to rule by the majority. Consistently, we see that civilians favor policies most of us would agree with, but money interests prevail. I’m the Soviet Union, beaurocratic interests prevailed. That’s just what you get with centralized power, and humans needing to fulfill a role to provide for their families. Try to rally your neighbors in your immigrant community that black people shouldn’t be allowed in. Then, try to rally them around lowering rent. Finally, try to convince a piggie (the long arm of billionaires) to literally negotiate a single thing, or show up in a timely manner, or not forge documents.

That’s a decent idea. But, here’s another one: there’s no objective morality, obviously, but we do have a thing we can point to. Community collaboration, and the instincts we’ve developed as primates. We don’t need to be involved in international trade deals. We need to check on our neighbor when a grocery delivery is rotting in front of their door, or show up strapped when some loud motherfucker causes is causing issues. I propose that any semblance of objective morality lies in our genes and us being social primates. This whole civility thing is nothing but gaslighting authoritarianism.

Yup. I envision those existing. For example, In the area I come from, the “Bikers Against Child Abuse” exist. Maybe there’s a Bikers Against Bikers Against Child Abuse? It’s not pretty across the board, and if you peel back a single layer of the world right now, neither is it.

I’m thinking, more like, you and your neighbors arm yourselves and be in each other’s business.

As a rapper, I totally agree. I’ll go with: decentralized community defense would be far more effective than the police. And, you know. Wouldn’t be them.

This is refreshing to see after using reddit so long.

I’ve embraced existentialism. Finally found a definition of spituality I could digest and apply: “How you emotionally relate to the world.” Since then, I let my primitive, primate brain do things like feel jealousy and be wrong about things. Pretty freeing
