It's a "tough" system. It works by providing motivation to not be left at the bottom. For those who are left at the bottom, it's not a good system.
so any way to the top is justified...
thus morality is subjective in such a system.
which is quite odd when you look at how many americans claim to follow christian values.
did jesus say "every man for himself" !
dont think so, though i could be wrong.
i agree that advancement has brought a great deal of benefits and i am not opposed to the idea of insentivised public work schemes that expect people to work in exchange for a house, medical care and food and school for their children..
and medical care for their children, and food for their children...
but that is a long way from survival of the fittest as a moral absolute to nurture children in to then use weaponised force to enslave those same people into complance of the elitists ideological privilage.
i accept you may not think soo deeply and may at this point be completely lost so i will leave it there.
The good news is that most people don't stay at the bottom.
staying poor and sickly is not something that happens in the media for long.
this expresion you use ... i have heard it before.
why does it make me think of "just following orders" ?
because it lacks the clarity to see those whom are being sent to the gas chambers via lack of health care and malnutrition.
the effective genocidal system remains in stead of the lack of direct action to cull the heard and give all their work & possesions to the elite.
culling the heard so only the elite survive ...note fitnes is only defined by survivability and morality is void by this system as a form of subjective slavery
It's also hard to ignore that it's outside the norm when judged against most other countries.
... agreed, though surely the intellectually acclaimed should not be living by comparing the self to others, but more soo comparing themselves to themselves ?
e.g the last man standing alive is the one who is morally superior, or politicaly correct.
blood lust societys and cultures that embrace torture and killing of people as a normal legal process are in my humble opinion starkly different to some others.
This is not to argue that I'm not for changing many aspects of this system. I'm just trying to make a few impartial statements here.
fair point, and if it were not for the ability to live a life of impartiality then where would art and intellectual culture come from ?
we would all be living in a mad-max like world feeding off whom ever could be killed first.
recapping the cycle of normative psychological pathology...
all systems that do not claim to agree with the bully are not variant codes of barbarianism.
pyramid systems of social order are fairly normal.
err-go ... why was slavery abandonned ?
because of some moral fortitude of the slave masters ?
did they have a leap of some type of intellectual consciousness ?
