Changing quickly now as the prior generation sat still collecting rent as long as possible, refusing to evolve themselves, and kept the next generation away from opportunities to evolve.

Teachers who just take public school jobs rather than start local learning programs and nurses who idle in hospitals rather than start some in-home nursing service for their community, academics whose careers stalled due to progress sit there reliving the same old routine blocking newcomers from moving through the pipeline

Whole lot of ossified minds in industry who need to get over coddling some sacrosanct story and identity and move along

Blanket outlawing of utilitarianism is its own slippery slope.

Just because some long dead philosophers, mostly affluent people who avoided real work and utilitarian choice, had time to sit and cobble together some syntax and semantics doesn’t mean it’s literally possible to live by their high minded babble

And to the moral point; today the majority rely on as little labor as possible paid as little as possible to make their food and clothes; consuming the few willing to work for little for the benefit of the many is daily life for richer countries. Pretending our society is beyond such because our historical philosophy says it is pretentious wank
