> I like the concept, but to filter every possible action through the lens of society is ultimately self destructive. Just as individuals should make room in their considerstion for the society, society too should make room in its considerations for the individual. Just as each of us should work to make life better for everybody, the collective should also serve to benefit each individual. Otherwise, what is the point?
We just need to collectively pull together enough commonality of purpose to provide an impetus for the next epistemological leap to unfold (refold?).
