Unchecked corruption and endless media propaganda leading to runaway regulatory capture resulting in an untenable concentration of wealth and power into far too few individuals and organizations.

Edit: also, donkey brains 🫏 🧠

    I'm sorry we share this terrible affliction. That being said, your comment reads more of a blaming thing and I'm looking for excuses. Do you have any excuses?

    Doing the right thing is perfectly easy and perfectly possible until there's a financial incentive for it to not be easy or possible.

    It was an issue with older ballot styles. In Florida, during the 2000 election, they were using ballots where you would use a hole punch to choose who you voted for. Sometimes, the hole punch did not fully cut the paper and the little bit (the chad) would still be attached. It could then cover up the hole, or cover a different one, so when the machine would read it, it could register as a different vote.

    Like... the current state of affairs everywhere? Cause I'm not sure I can take ownership of EVERYTHING.

    Deity belief doesn’t really come into this. I presume since you’re atheist, you’re existentialist, but at that point you still have to define what you’re responsible for and why. How much do you want to survive in this universe and for how long? What do you want to get out of it and how much? What do you consider to be the border of “you” and “not you”?

    Where do you define the boundary of “I” though? Your brain? Your body? The stuff you say is yours? Your microbiome? Your thoughts? Your actions?

    The answer as always is capitalism. Literally every terrible thing happening can be linked back to the desire for profit.

    Why would I need excuses? I've been trying to stop this for 20 years. Political movements, organizing, writing and sharing useful information. I don't need excuses. If you want an explanation, I can give you my perspective, but I don't regret not doing more. I did as much as I could and paid dearly for it.

    I'm preoccupied with my health and I don't feel like I have a lot of agency to accomplish much. That's slowly changing, maybe.
