Dear @chekohler

Western culture is so far the ONLY one that value human life in general. Living 11 years in Asia (various countries) made me realize how bad it currently is in China and south-east Asia, where technology is already developing way faster comparing to west.

People are seen as commodities and thus empathy can easily be ignored.

Indeed that's true. And it will only get "worse".

Yours
