A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt
In addition to, not as a substitute for, individual responsibility, there is a collective responsibility.

You might find this interesting, then. It deals with the distinction between individuals and persons:

@elsua54 That "tribe" you keep mentioning doesn't exist or isn't like a peice of wood somewhere I can just go find.
It's individuals keeping it alive much like a #individual #samurai keeps it alive - and frankly samurai's are all but dead as a bred species.
Like #Animals and #humans pushed out by cutting their #trees, concreting, asphalting it all - #tribes do not exist much.
Try not to think of my species as common like #Mastodon's #Tech & #Caturday core.
Strong #principles #morals = rare.

The man who goes alone can start to-day; but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready, and it may be a long time before they get off.
Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) American philosopher and writer
Walden; or, Life in the Woods, ch. 1 “Economy” (1854)More about this quote: wist.info/thoreau-henry-david/…

CW: Spoiler, La asistenta
Y el muchacho es como es porque la madre también es una maltratadora. La película es mala pero entretenida y puede ser interesante para hablar sobre #violenciaMachista y #poder. Y como la solución que plantea, no puede ser. No toca el #sistemaPatriarcal. Es como cuando te dice una persona, suelen ser señoros: "Si eso le pasa a mi hija, yo le mato". ¿De qué nos vale tener una #asesina de maltratadores? Si es sistémico. Si salen más. Esto no es #individual, es #colectivo.

Society is like the air, necessary to breathe but insufficient to live on.

A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt
He had not learned that the majority in a democracy has no more right to tyrannize over a minority than, under a different system, the latter would have to oppress the former; and that, if there is a moral principle at stake, the saying that the voice of the people is the voice of God may be quite as untrue, and do quite as much mischief, as the old theory of the divine right of kings. The distinguishing feature of our American governmental system is the freedom of the individual; it is quite as important to prevent his being oppressed by many men as it is to save him from the tyranny of one.
Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901–1909)

A quotation from Bertrand Russell
People do not always remember that politics, economics, and social organisation generally, belong in the realm of means, not ends. Our political and social thinking is prone to what may be called the “administrator’s fallacy,” by which I mean the habit of looking upon a society as a systematic whole, of a sort that is thought good if it is pleasant to contemplate as a model of order, a planned organism with parts neatly dove-tailed into each other. But a society does not, or at least should not, exist to satisfy an external survey, but to bring a good life to the individuals who compose it. It is in the individuals, not in the whole, that ultimate value is to be sought. A good society is a means to a good life for those who compose it, not something having a separate kind of excellence on its own account.
Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
Lecture (1949-01-30), “Individual and Social Ethics,” Reith Lecture, “Authority and the Individual” No. 6, BBC RadioMore about this quote: wist.info/russell-bertrand/838…

The Nation is Too Sick
So it is incapable of healing individuals, families, and communities.
We need to work also on the nation:

Because OSE is consciously simple & light & not burdened w/ property, bureaucracy can be kept to a minimum & #democracy to a maximum. #Leadership of small local #communities is gender balanced & temporary.

A quotation from Bertrand Russell
In our own day […] there has been too much of a tendency towards authority, and too little care for the preservation of initiative. Men in control of vast organisations have tended to be too abstract in their outlook, to forget what actual human beings are like, and to try to fit men to systems rather than systems to men.

Unless a man has talents to make something of himself, freedom is an irksome burden. Of what avail is freedom to choose if the self be ineffectual? We join a mass movement to escape individual responsibility, or, in the words of the ardent young Nazi, “to be free from freedom.” It was not sheer hypocrisy when the rank-and-file Nazis declared themselves not guilty of all the enormities they had committed. They considered themselves cheated and maligned when made to shoulder responsibility for obeying orders. Had they not joined the Nazi movement in order to be free from responsibility?

I don't know for sure but I think I just lost a #friend over being too #forgiving in the moment.
Sorry not sorry. I don't stand for what I can't #become as such.
I do what I can to #embrace all #people who #appreciate who I am. It's all I can do, and if that #means my #contribution towards #friendships isn't meant to #last then so #be it. But if it does, they're really #rare and I #cherish them because they're very easy to #lose over #something you thought you could #understand at the time.
I'll #say this.
All #echo #chambers are the #primary #reason as to why a #friendship falls apart. Because I've seen this #effect everyone to the point of no #return possible, and honestly...you can't get along with people who spend more of their #time invested into something other than what you are doing with that person together. And I don't think I'm alone in wishing that at times, such an #investment cultivates #familiarity over #routine on a continuous basis.
But you know what? I still appreciate the chance to #care for all it is #worth as such. I do my best to live #life with no #regrets to count on #growing without me there to #manage them.
It's my own #fault for putting a bit of my #soul into everything I do alongside my #heart and #mind accordingly. And as afar as I #know there's no #changing that, at least in a very easy way.
If you ever truly #need #friends by your side, you'll know whether they're people you can #count on or not, by the way they #treat your #ambitions as an #individual person.
You can still #respect someone if they do not #acknowledge that you have any. But the chances of you becoming #close, are not as great.
With that being said, you do not need to #support the same #ambition someone else does, in order to be friends. You just need to set your #ego aside so that such a person can fulfill their #desire the best way they know how to.
That's what I do, and I carry a lot of #weight because of it. All of the #memories set aside because the soul wasn't ready to let go of the ones #entrapping their #conscious #focus throughout seemingly more #important issues outside of my #control in all of the #moments they last.
Putting my best #self forward, means respecting that and not forcing the #matter at hand. It doesn't make that #feeling go away, born of lost #opportunity at the #core of #potential #reciprocity as such.
But yes #indeed I know #hope is not so easily broken by #fragile #futility alone. Which is why I continue to #forgive but not #forget all of the ways life makes a different #path #unfold into #being by the #presence of #purpose for everyone.

A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt
We must act upon the motto of all for each and each for all. There must be ever present in our minds the fundamental truth that in a republic such as ours the only safety is to stand neither for nor against any man because he is rich or because he is poor, because he is engaged in one occupation or another, because he works with his brains or because he works with his hands. We must treat each man on his worth and merits as a man. We must see that each is given a square deal, because he is entitled to no more and should receive no less.
Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901-1909)

The status quo may feel like like a safe place to stay in, but it is actually a trap. Improving, changing & growing is what will benefit a business and individual, not stuck in repeat. The status quo doesnt always been something is working or well. #statusquo #business #change #individual #benefit
