Such a great essay! This is how I feel all the time—everything we’ve built, every societal structure, every dollar or rule is all made up. None of this exists in nature. None of this is meant to be the way we live. And yet, these rules and structures are why people’s lives, families, and mortality are at stake / in question. We assume these roles and everything worsens.
Have you ever spoken to a manager like a normal human and not like some God to worship? They get pissed off.
Thank you. It’s truly astonishing that people think peak human evolution is working at a desk 40+ hours a week for a corporation that is legally considered a person, but animals aren’t given similar respect. We should all be eating mushrooms at a waterfall, smh
