I think that the _current_ systems are incapable of care, but that doesn’t mean systems can’t be in general.

I often think that they’re held back in large part by people who say “we can’t” rather than building a solution





It’s extremely easy to say that things could and should be better, but it’s about as useful as saying that things “can’t” be done.

The problem isn’t that nobody wants things to get better, it’s that we disagree on how to get there. This has literally always been the case.

Of course things could be better. Life could be perfect. Lacking this solution you’re hand-waving, it’s useless drivel.


I disagree that it’s as useless as saying they can’t be done, because acknowledging the possibility opens the door intellectually to think about solutions.

It’s a great way to pat yourself on the back and absolutely nothing else.
