AA: Only about ten percent of humans ‘think’ in the sense we mean it. Even then, the vast majority of people are bots. They are not only paradigm machines, and tradition-machines, and metaphysics-machines, but also gene machines. They do in fact believe what they are doing is good, right, just, best – they’re just wrong. And wrong almost all the time. (Look at the history of western philosophy for people trying to do it right but getting it wrong. That’s why philosophy is a mixed bag.)
I focus on fixing the issue. And I just use the science on one hand and the law on the other.
It’s very hard to solve problems when we work in a mode of accusation, blame, and offense, instead of just putting in place the institutional plumbing that prevents the irreciprocities people seek to impose by their justifications.
