Interesting analogy. Veil of motivated definition: “You define human rights, I decide who counts as human” “You define climate action, I decide when to act” Often the motivated reasoning shows up as a rate-limit. Rate of emancipation, rate of Covid testing, rate of emissions

For the earth to survive, the defense mechanism inside of White culture which interpreted "all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights" to permit slavery must be dismantled utterly. Climate change is behind the same veil.
The market is more interesting than the White House. It’s among the fastest acting institutions ever created... once it gets the memo. The problem is it tends to get the memo only when actual financial damage starts to accrue. And it defends its rate limits the most strongly.
