I disagree with this. If the truth is explained well, then the misunderstanding is an individual occurrence. If it is not explained well, then this doesn't apply.

You'd think things would change in a connected world.....at least for the moment....nothing has changed...

This could be a reply to the previous post: Be gentle to all and stern with yourself. -Teresa of Avila

But, this is not mutually exclusive. For instance, I focus on universality because if people can't understand justice, they'll never be fair and good to each other. If they're not fair and good, they're rapacious and opportunistic.

I'm not sure where this answer falls, but ethics, productive morality, justice, fairness and goodness are balanced measures of human life. No doubt this is truth.

That is philosophy...exactly....

You have to ask yourself, what is the ideal language? The ideal conversation would be one where world models are presented as increasingly better options until a conclusion. This is what AI is starting to do.....have conversations using a form....

There's nothing physically precluding humanity from doing the right thing. As for generosity, that won't even be a virtue in a post scarcity world....

Also, the quickest path to neglect duty....

What's crazy to me is that the situation for basic education has become so bad it's not even necessary for you create something new, help develop a new direction and so forth....just posting the great ideas of the past alone is fighting the fight that has to be won, the battle against brain eroding anti-intellectualism.

I think of it like a tree. Even if you stop studying philosophy or critical thinking itself the seed you planted begins growth that just happens by living in the world with the tools you have.

I think hypocrites contradict themselves indirectly. Masturbatory, amoral, self-serving opportunism was never interested in keeping it straight.

Thinking, talking and writing IS action...
