      Not a popular belief here on Lemmy. Can you try something that hits a little closer to home?

          If you want to feel out the edges of the consensus here, see what gets removed.

          Ok, on second thought that may be difficult.

          You people really do conform to the consensus very tightly.

            To paraphrase Stephen Colbert, reality has a well-known socialist bias. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_socialism

    That we shouldn’t care about anything besides our own worldly/ material whims.

      I think that might be stress talking.

      Everybody agrees that goodness and beauty matter. All of our stories and movies and ideologies say as much.

      But when stressed. When security is at stake. And especially if nobody is watching. Yeah we can become selfish little rats.

      My point is we go up and down like that. From human to rat and back again. Depending on our stress level.
