I've been recently "disappointed" (putting it mildly) by so-called leftist friends who have suddenly warmed to Elon as a positive force in the society. Astonishes me that they can overlook the tremendous negative impact of that sociopathy in moving money around such that it mostly benefits oligarchs and immiserates so many others. I fail to see how true leftism is consistent with support of billionaires
There is surely reward for doing good. But it comes from a place that evil refuses to acknowledge and accept as real. We can’t expect evil to understand truth, goodness and treating others like you want to be treated. It will never happen.
If there were any reward for doing good, we'd all do it.
Instead, sociopathy is rewarded (as long as the number of sociopaths doesn't reach a tipping point) and altruism just gets taken advantage of.
We need to hold the vision of what the world would be like under different conditions. The conditions are all arbitrary so they can be changed.

It isn't. End of.
Under capitalism, yep.
If we are to reduce humankind to class we may well trow away some gemms lost in the mud, you see
Uhm. I think we're living in the tipping point right now don't you?
Perhaps.
