Beautiful article only in the last part after all of the ends justifying the means drivel for justification and rationalization to counteract the severe cognitive dissonance you are going through. Your ending, however, brings to my mind tenets I have grown to live and die by: We are all in this together. There is no escape. None of us can get out of this alive. Some of us die sooner than others. So, don’t not waste my time. Do not insult my intelligence. Do not try to victimize me. Learn to die well as a healthy death. Be of service to others in relief of their own suffering. Read “The Impossible Community,” by John P. Clark, especially study Chapter 9, “The Common Good: Sarvodaya and the Gandhian legacy.” A real meaning and opportunity behind a Harris administration?
