Guilt is a feeling that you owe a debt that you're not paying.

Deep connection is the antidote to madness.

Irrational expectations are at the root of most human suffering.

SCREW CHILDREN!
That's the mantra of the world.
Instead of burying them with a national debt, shoving them in shitty schools, drugging them if they don't comply, hitting them, yelling at them, indoctrinating them with religion and statism and patriotism and military worship, what if we just did what was right for them? The whole world is built on "screw children", and if we changed that, this would be an alien planet to us.

Imagining that you are deep and complex, but others are simple, is one of the primary signs of malignant selfishness.

The ruling classes use broken and smashed up childhoods as weaponised instruments of domination around the world. This is why the government has no incentive to end child abuse; because the government needs abuse victims as enforcers.
