    I know life's not fair but this is ridiculous. My life has been hard from day one. I've tried to be a good person because that's who I am but it's one thing after another. I hope when I die I'll find out why that is

      @@avidlearner799 life is not only about sadness, its just the state of mind. The west has made it so look like- only when we do hard work, we attain success; NO that’s not correct. One of my friend is a very good hardworker and didn’t get his job because of a shrewd politician who ruined his life(died on train accident, body was in pieces). This happened to him not because of his stupidity, but he was a honest man !!

    i tried to do this multiple times in my life and it just doesn't work in the long run. Most people will simply try to somehow use the solution that benefit both parties to extract the maximum possible amount of goods for themselves and leave you with just enough to keep you doing your part of the deal. And i'm not a nihilist or a gloomy person, the idea of fairness was just repeatedly beaten out of me through the years. Most people don't even want to ponder on philosophical things, let alone actually implement solutions. I think egoism is slightly more of a reality than justice for our world

      Egoism is meritocracy. Meritocracy is fairness however laws have been put in place to protect the privilege of the few under the fair label of "private property". Private property then gets transmitted through generations and accumulated by certain people who endup opressing those who believe that life should in the idea that life should be fair. I will make a video pretty soon explaining this in more details so you should watch out my channel. The whole idea of society has been constructed to protect the privilege of the very few. For example the United States prides itself on the idea of equality of opportunity for all, freedom, democracy and all the other bullshit but the US has the highest level of incarceration of any country in the world and from those 90% are in there due to poverty. The whole idea of freedom and democracy is a lie.

    It is unfair to blame life for being unfair, when it is people who are unfair.
    Life is very fair, very wise, in how it shapes our behavior and teaches us; it is a very wise and compassionate teacher.
    Life is designed to point us to Love, and when we wander, it points us back to Love again and again if necessary; life is very patient and very consistent in its pointing.

      Bs , life is the most unfair thing there is because it simply doesn't care about fairness . The strong eat the weak , that's how life is . Only we human actually care about fairness because we have something called empathy

    This theory of justice given by Rawls, was similar to the justice concept given by Thiruvalluvar 1500 years back !!! Yeah im serious. That’s the power of Tamil people

    I've always thought about the innocent people who are wronged in this world and lately it has been bothering me more than ever...
    I wanna know what I can do to help. But because I'm not a native English speaker I don't understand some parts of this helpful content 🤦🏽‍♀️
    if you're willing to do so, It would be a great help to me if someone could briefly say, as a human being, what should I do about this? (what's my part?) according to John Rawls's theory.
    thanks 🤍

      hey dear and thank you for your comment, as far as i know, john rawls theory didn't mention our part as individuals for changing this, the world is unfair! but we can help each other, be patient, not judge others, try to put ourselves in their shoes before saying anything harmful.
      i try to do good thing to others without expecting anything in return, even small thing, i actually make a short video about it. you can see it in my page - "shorts" - "do something good a day", i will add link so you can watch it and maybe if a lot of people make the same we can turn this world to a better place:

    This whole video is interaction of other people's emotions in what you're doing help or don't help judge or don't judge if you're there to supply somebody with help don't change them into what they need to be for you to help them I've seen homeless people that don't want to have a job and are happy not to work and to get a free house off in the government some people are generations of living off the state and they don't want you to help them you can't get them a job you can't bring them out of poverty they've chosen their life to be that and that's what they're happy with it's a crazy thought but it's the truth been there done that
