political rant

Skill is "the ability to do something well" it is not something gained through practice or hard work exclusively. (skilled labor)

We only know, what we know because we had the opportunity to learn it. Everyone is dumb and everyone is stupid until they educate themselves contextually. ( the for-profit university/college paywall is gatekeeping knowledge + recognition of being educated +acess to higher wages)

Agreeing to disagree does not magically split reality in two so that it can support all perceptions. (disagreements of indisputable truths)

With greater seeds, greater is the harvest. So it is with money. Assuming you intend to farm it. (distribution of wealth)

Access to the process, is not access to the end goal. Some processes are difficult/impossible. (Healthcare)

Trying is not enough when you are not trying to win. ( one step forwards, two steps back politicking)

Leaves glide in the wind, so do people in cultural environments. (political divide)

The Fennec-fox does not know the desert is arid until it travels to the grasslands. (when people refuse to consider the alternative)
AND
Knowing better can be done yet not taking action is both a collective and individual issue: (When people say not good enough is good enough in regards to the Housing crisis, Hunger crisis, Civilian casualties in war, Healthcare AGAIN, etc..)

The only difference between people affected/ not affected by the problems in our society is that when asking "what can we do?" People not affected have the privilege of taking no action and finding no solution because likely they see no value in helping others or they fear losing their privilege. A flawed way of thinking (originating in emotional ignorance) that should be eradicated from ANY society that seeks to legitimately care for its people (which is the original function of society, TO TAKE CARE OF OURSELVES.)
