@Meaningness I read your piece on specialness (and saw you intend to write an expanded version. Hopefully maybe soon?
) —
Seems important + counter-intuitive :o
Why is it 'specialness is a broken concept' instead of 'everyone is special'?
Can you make your own 'cosmic plan'?

This is probably factually false, and in any case doesn’t support its intended agenda, because no one cares if you are the best person in the world at sticking grapes up your nose with your tongue.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUN1jLH7dOQ …

“Everyone is special” (a “muddled middle” in my jargon) shares with the actual specialness stance a confusion of factual and moral equality. People aren’t factually equal (a concrete and obvious fact). People are morally equal (an abstract, difficult, non-obvious claim).
