      ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted J. Daniel Sawyer

      on the one hand, de-localization ("caring about people you've never met") sounds bad ...but on the other hand, localization ("cleaning up a drunk's vomit", "hosting a friend-of-a-friend") doesn't sound so hot either I just want to "consciously decouple" [ from society ].https://twitter.com/dsawyer/status/1501694703175045122 …

      J. Daniel Sawyer @dsawyer
      The de-localization of responsibility from direct relationships and its relocation to an ideological plane may be the most pernicious effect of modern moral sensibility. The worker in your warehouse, the bum no your block, and your depressed sister don't matter...1/?

          3/ Nancy Kress is a good author, but I hated the book "Beggars in Spain" because the thesis was "people you've never met can create massive problems for themselves through sloth and apathy, and that somehow creates an obligation on you to care / fix it"pic.twitter.com/DdrUnbCxVU

          5/ Pretty sure I recall it correctly. The title of the book is taken from the name of the moral dilemma, which is discussed in the novel.https://twitter.com/Cristiona/status/1502427298863190018?t=7zO51wFYJb0OBsoLpM5HTQ&s=19 …

          I really need to re-read that book, because I didn't get that thesis at all.

          People: Without the welfare state, people will STARVE ON THE STREETS! Most capitalists: No, there was more charity before welfare, and there will be so much more wealth Me: Meh, not my problem, the street owners will remove the bodies, or probably kick them out long beforehand.

          The people who say that are also the people walking around the heroin addicts sleeping on the sidewalks between the BART station and their office.
