Yeah, that sounds like a great world. How do we get there? Specifically, how do we get there? Your solution has to be workable and livable. I don't think that if you fail to get 100 you get 0 with this kind of thing, because things have improved, slowly, in a lot of places. Just because it isn't perfect doesn't mean it isn't better and I think that's something we fundamentally disagree upon. I don't aim for perfect because I don't think perfect is possible.
Yup, I'm one of those resentful stupid types driven by the calculus of emotion. And you know, I'm proud of that. And you know what's funny? I only get this angry when I'm arguing about it. I'm far more angered by being made to feel like a dumbass by you than by Indiana Jones. I make snarky comments about the media but I'm never enraged by it - it doesn't actually get to me. Does that mean I'm somehow angry on the inside? I'm sure it does. I'm sure there's an expert you could call to testify to that. I'm full of anger and hate, I'm just a toxic little ball of spite.
