Gregory's ServerI'd say the social issue we need to solve is looking at things through the lens of success vs. failure. For most things, that's a false and utterly unnecessary dichotomy.

 In a way, this is what I mean. People should not have to earn "being worthwhile." If you exist, you're worthwhile. @EverydayMoggie @Daojoan  @EverydayMoggie @JoeChip @Daojoan we need to adjust what success means... And that's not right... We only see the big winner as a success, Did he still fail? @Fleurvervenne @EverydayMoggie @Daojoan He did not fail in following his internal compass. Some will fight to be someone even though it may mean nothing to anyone else. But we actually do live in a society. Those devalued by society or without support have only their internal compass to guide them and it is often not enough. Those that eventually give up become existential failures. |

I mean "success" in a wider sense that includes some sense of being a worthwhile and contributing person in society rather than disposable trash in the landfill of history. Which is what half of men in the US essentially are.
