The best thing I have read on our current version of hell. And, I have read a goodly amount. Your truth is also my truth. I look forward to reading more of your works. I just happened upon you while reading Substack. Offhand, I don’t recall the sequence but I will retrace my steps to discover the path.

David Hume: ‘You cannot rationally infer an “ought” from an “is”!’

that means their is no real support for ethics. I have known many highly unethical people, in my opinion, who considered themselves ethical.

I do not believe any real ethics exists with politicians, religious leaders or religion, within any legal structure or life in general.

Hence, expecting any type of fairness in life may be delusional.

I hope you enjoyed your thanks giving.

Incidentally AEON just came out with an article where striving to be happy leads to being unhappy. This article aligns with most of my “beliefs” where I recognize that a belief is only a belief.
