That's fucking disgusting, what the fuck. How are Americans not rioting every day of the year?

    We are raised in this to believe it is normal. There's also the whole machine of our culture that's largely insulated and hidden from the public eye that rationalizes away all critiques and criticisms.

    But in a nutshell: staunch individualism. Not caring until personally effected is our culture.

    Sounds like an anti culture. I know I'm just ranting at this point, but you can be autonomous while still admitting you're interdependent.

    Not that I have horse high enough to cast shade from. I just benefit from the inertia of the hard work of those before me. I don't know what I'm really doing to stop this kind of erosion in my own communities. The most I do is quote our contract whenever the boss contradicts it in a meeting.
