THIS is why I’m on Substack. For rock-solid, coherent writing about important subjects. For ideas that are in play and their skillful presentation. This is a great, great piece.

Well done, these are indeed ideals to strive for: authenticity, liberty, personal and collective empowerment. And we do have the power to make this our reality. I like how you call attention to the fact that we are constantly relinquishing our power by giving too much focus onto things outside of our control. There's a delicate balance between having compassion for injustices in the world and losing ourself in moral pontification.
