Most People Don’t Have the Bandwidth to Make Social Changes, and It Gets Worse….

Comedian and social critic George Carlin nailed an important point here: very few of us have the resources (even if we have the inclination) to devote any major portion of our lives towards making improvements in human civilization.

And many of us (at least Americans) who are investing ourselves into making change are actually working against progress, i.e., actively accelerating the decay in education, equity, healthcare, etc.  We have an entire political party whose platform is white supremacy, the rejection of science, and anti-woke.  There are people in the GOP garnering vast amounts of wealth and power by making the world a dirtier, hotter, more dangerous, ignorant and hateful place to live.
