You don't judge the value of a life relative to some grand, unfeeling narrative, and if anything it's the opposite. Life is meaningful because life is the very source of meaning.

"You have to recognize that any meaning your life has, is given to it by you... If the world is going to have any of the things most of us value, we're going to have to put it there ourselves."

Awesome video.

Philosophically, Communism is the best form of government.

Practically, Communism is the worst form of government.

It’s amazing to leave a conversation a couple days earlier and then come back to it and barely recognize where it once was

Yeah, I probably got a bit carried away

Was meant to be more philosophical than political, but then everything is political.

When I was growing up, everyone thought America needed more political engagement from it's citizens because our voting turnout was so much lower than other countries.

Boy was that ever wrong.

There is a Gallup survey from a few years ago where they asked voters leaving an election precinct to choose the correct answer on "how long does a US Senator serve for?"

About 1/3rd of them got it wrong - and these were people leaving with "I voted" stickers where a Senate race was on the ballot. So they just voted to make someone 1 of 100 people in the country with a great deal of power and they apprently have forgotten every US history class they took in primary school.

Same thing with Duke and UNC showing that candidate positions and character are not the #1 factor voters choose on it's political party affiliation (they swipe tested ficticious cadndiates with randomly generated positions on 10 issues) biggest factor was whether you put at D or an R next to the persons name.

It's candidly not that those people are necessarily "stupid" or rubes - it's that they don't really pay attention consistetnly and like all knowledge it atrophies. I mean I passed Calculus - if you wanted me to do it now - I would need serious refresher. If you only pay attention once every 4 years for a couple months it's not surprising that results get weird.

They believe everything our propaganda media tells them to believe. They have no critical thinking skills and do zero research. Most vote on "muh feelings"... 2 + 2 = 5
