@wvrede A cynic is what I don't want to be. I too encounter decent, kind and cooperative people. I even try to be one. However -decent, kind and cooperative- as I am, I am not very successful in stopping any of the evils on the list I vomited out in my rant. That is a puzzle Rutger Bregman could really help me with. How can we (he's a white male Dutch person, like me) be more successful in stopping evil. Not by repeating to ourselves how decent, kind and cooperative we are, I think. I want us to be more effective in stopping genocides, but we allow our government and our companies to export weapons to the murderers. Maybe becoming less cooperative and less decent and less kind might be more effective?
