RE: Understanding What We Can't See - Conspiracy, "Debunking", and Absence of Evidence - Part One (Updated and ReSteemed)

that's fundamentally a version of government

government is essentially people...

I don't thin we can change human nature, but we can socialize people to behave better...within their own sphere of action; now, across the world, we socialize people to interfere, to make their lives "better"

but then gain, to make the kind of socialization change I speak of, we'd have to interfere with others' lives to "make them better"

there's more than one cycle LOL

Sort:  

Heh! Yah, interfering, to create something, or "make them better," sounds and probably is contradictory. And I've no problem with government, but only with the people who make one/animate one for the wrong reasons. I suppose I was just somewhat redundantly pointing out that the outcome every time they remove the "villains" is more villains doing the same villainy stuff.

I'd say better than interfering would be to take the long view, and for instance, to advocate, or teach and make noble again, lifestyles like marriage, (one of the greatest civilizing forces.) This force alone can teach us so many things from resisting the urge for immediate gratification, to all the various forms of altruism.

It's not for everyone, and no one is to be forced, but as a general social good, ideas such as that are the solution... (imo.)

I suppose I was just somewhat redundantly pointing out that the outcome every time they remove the "villains" is more villains doing the same villainy stuff.

I've got a post that is due for reSteeming about Utopia and Dystopia; fits well with this thought

Good stuff, I look forward to it.
