It's important to remain aware of the most fundamental assumptions of your life philosophy Mine is that life is valuable After that would probably be that welfare is valuable. Then maybe freedom Ultimately I don't know if these value assumptions are true
I think some values are more useful than others given context. I.e. Long term species and habitatsurvival is more valuable than the economic freedom that might be gained from pillaging our environment Both can be valued, but given context I place them in a hierarchy

Yes, everything has a unique value from every unique perspective in space~time. The only thing that is universally valuable is everything, as a whole. ◯

As much as I like your hierarchy (your priority list), everyone finds more to disagree on as the list grows longer. The devil is in the details we can't afford to ignore. There's no escaping the gravity of politics. The best we can hope for is more peaceful ways of converging.

I'm not sure what hierarchy you're talking about. The whole story thing is not a hierarchy, but an emergent process for communicating what you care about and want. And we're supposed to "disagree" that's what having different paths through space~time is all about.
