ive been getting into our hunter gatherer history and the idea of ooga booga woman abandoning a disabled baby is not true. we took care of our disabled individuals so vehemently. baby abandonment actually exploded AFTER that. when we had nothing we took care of each other but now that we have everything we die on the streets.

i feel like i owe everything to everyone and i want to help people. when i talk to my friends i feel better. i dont want us to be divided. i think about inmates in jail and i dont understand why they have to stay locked and have no friends. etc.

Be the change you want to see in the world, talk to strangers!

And give the people some change for cripes sake, they aren't begging because they want to make society less fulfilling for you, they just need to survive same as all of us

I'd suggest mutual aid but almost everyone parroting that term is really just like, doing charity, which is great and all but as you may have noticed, not super conducive to forming strong social relationships
