      It still reads as both fundamentally shallow and basically vapid to me, in a way I find genuinely irritating. There few things I loathe in this world more than edgelord misanthropes who want to act like everyone is just as shitty and hollow as they are.

      Maybe not everyone, but it's a natural result of having power, or at least being placed in a position where you have to exert power in oppressive ways to live Which, you know, is the actual reason for evil, not just people being born with evil genes or deciding to be evil

      It's like literal TV shows and books about the lives of millionaires Acknowledging that, yes, they're human beings, and yes, they're doing their best by their own standards to be decent people as they see it And probably you or I in their place wouldn't give up the money either

      But they are, nonetheless, fundamentally bad people who are harming the world by being millionaires At the very least it's a *contradiction*, a *hypocrisy*, how clearly the values people profess to hold rapidly change when their position in society changes

      Honestly and to be blunt I actually do think it applies to all of us in the First World living on more than like $10,000 a year, that Peter Singer may be an asshole in many ways but there is no moral justification for living like even a poor American when the Third World exists

      Everyone is selfish, and pretty damn selfish too, and we don't know how to deal with that fact - we won't openly say things like "My video games are more important than some thousands of children dying for lack of vitamins whom I don't even know" - so we're always lying

      This is honestly what I can't stand about the Omelas discourse, like what Le Guin said is obviously and completely true of every single person who read her story and they don't ADMIT it "I reject the premise of this story and would free the kid and burn down Omelas"

      Bitch no you wouldn't Poor are you are, are you currently going blind due to B vitamin deficiency? Would you be pissed off if I cleaned out the $1,200 from your bank account to buy vitamins for Somalian kids Then you wouldn't burn down Omelas

      Arguably the point here isn't scolding everyone around you and yourself for being a "bad person" but to admit that when you look at the big picture you have to think structurally and not morally It's not about "bad people", this is just how people are

          Well, that IS why I became a Democratic-Socialist; as much as you can be one and not be a martyr.

          Which is part of what's necessary to confront billionaires who rule the world, like it's not an issue of "the wrong people" being billionaires, billionaires are bad people *by definition*, because they are billionaires

          Maybe the guillotine or the stake through the heart is the only solution to what they are but it's not a condemnation of their moral failings They didn't fail at anything, there was no test they didn't pass, there are no good vampires You stake a vampire because it is a vampire
