RE: The paradox of being “anti-capitalist” in a capitalist society
there's a difference between a good man and a nice man
some people , the ones who have a VERY large Dunbar's number can be both.
My late father in law for example. He knew everyone for four counties around...everyone liked him (he died at the age of 105)...he was the closest thing I'd ever seen to a saint.
I like to think that I'm a good man..
for US (those within my monkeysphere)
but i'm not nice.
I have a tiny dunbar's number.
If it comes to US vs THEM...I choose US everytime..
if I have to shoot THEM...then so be it.
All I'd feel is recoil.
What I find compelling about reading you is that whether I like what you say or not, at least I start from the base that you try to be honest - with yourself and where permitted, with others. I find that sometimes difficult.
thank you.
to your ownself be true
If you lie to YOURSELF...
you'll be very confused.
