I’m no expert, but 中国 is China in Mandarin / Hanzi. I don’t see it when scanning, even though there’s a direct reference to the Chinese government. It’s a shit post, probably a silly-haha. I thought it was a little weird.

不客气

There’s a lot of chatter in thread about humans, but there are studies on apes & chimps having a sense of justice. Justice is not morality, but they are closely related.

My guess is that, from an evolutionary standpoint, animals & early humans that could work together had a better success chance. Collaboration requires some rules, even if that’s monkeys getting grapes or cucumbers.

Is there some physical material evidence of morality? No, probably not. However, there is likely more to this story than “We got all our own morals, maaaaaan. It’s all relative.” There’s also concepts like “love” without a perfectly material understanding. Doesn’t make it less important. 🤷

I made this because the website lags like hell, but the info should be accessible.

If you didn’t want help, and someone showed up and started doing stuff, saying, “Hey I’m helping,” I doubt most people would want that help. Tl;dr you can only help those that want help or those that are open to it.

I think the best thing you can do is be supportive, invite them out, and showcase the positive aspects of your life & the life you’d want them to have. It’s not showboating / gloating, but it’s including them & offering them what a wider life might look like. When they want to change, you can be present for them in that moment.

Trying to change people can be such a fool’s errand. I’ve tried to do it with a bunch of friends over the last decade. You can’t move people who don’t want to be moved. You can maybe inspire them for more.
