Yeah somewhat sloppy. Honestly that was mostly flamebait from me. Wondered if such a statement could provoke a conversation on those issues. Beliefs I hold but always trying to challenge them.
Equality is a myth. There are good and shitty people across all races, genders, sexualities, etc. What we need to be focused on is equality of opportunity. Taxes are just not enough. We need far more actual health and education resources allocated to those systemically under-represented in social power. That needs to be represented in a transparent manner to all citizens. Then it's a matter of letting the chips fall where they may.
'The Burnout Society' from 2015. Kinda post-Marxian thing from a Korean-German philosopher named Byung-Chul Han. Takes dead-aim at the culture of positivity and individual achievement. Fantastic.
