  • Sure there are infinitely more people who suffer from this than people who benefit.

    But people have a limited amount of energy to do things or even think. I believe with people who actually have to work for a living, most of the energy goes towards immediate necessities: the daily tasks, working, getting food on the table, paying bills etc. A huge amount of energy and even time is consumed by stress alone that results from living like this. The tiny amount of energy and time people have for passions and socialising are probably spent on those or resting, or just escapism.

    How can people living and feeling like this actually change things ? I’d assume massive systemic change needs consistent mass movements.

    People would need to have time and energy to think and act. We’d also need willingness to do those things. It feels like not thinking and not acting consumes less energy and time, and therefore is the more likely choice.

    If it is possible to change things for the better for the vast majority of people, why aren’t they changing ?
