I don't question that making the choice to act with grace is the right choice. I'm just able to do that without believing in the fantasy that it will always matter. Which was the point of my original comment: empathy for those who don't have the same energy to make the right choice in the face of futility.
Here you go, making the absolute point to no avail. And yet you do it anyway. Almost as if you are required to act because not doing so makes you cowardly and complicit. A tiny little buttress supportive of the larger architecture. I told you. No fair! Look inward son, look inward. And find your answers there.
Perhaps we have a different definition of futility. Mine is that, once all the actors involved are gone, the world will act as it always has, with no dependency on the act. Could share a very real and personal example, but I'm neither a writer nor inclined to post it in substack comments.
Truly a nymph who has been transformed into a monster by circumstances beyond control ☠️
In sociis sceleris veritas, sed nulla fides
Love you

It isn’t futile. That’s the point actually.
