Lethal optimism
Big examples:
(1) American economists like Jeffrey Sachs get involved in Russia, trying to turn it into a Young Democracy. Result: Tragedy.
(2) Grotesque Idiot Soviet Agent Bush The Son gets involved in Iraq, trying to turn it into a Young Democracy. Result: Tragedy.
(3) Grotesque Idiot Soviet Agent Bush The Son gets involved in Afghanistan, trying to turn it into a Young Democracy. Result: Tragedy.
= = = = =
One small example:
In Spokane, a good samaritan who feels temporarily responsible for a neighbor's rental house hears a drug party with dozens of jungle-bunnies. He gets involved in the party, trying to make the niggers act like humans. Result: Tragedy. The niggers remain niggers and the good samaritan dies.
= = = = =
Solution:
Stop being an optimist. Get rid of the delusion that you can "make a difference". Stop believing that your own private idea of goodness is shared by all humans. Stop believing that all humans can be converted to your own private form of goodness. Understand that people are different in deep and innate ways, and have unbreakably different notions of goodness. Understand that these differences cannot be resolved by smooshing people together into an amorphous blob. Understand that Nature invented cell walls, organisms, boundaries and borders for a good reason. Understand that Nature gave all living things a miraculous power to distinguish and discriminate for a good reason. Eliminate the monstrous genocidal world-destroying concept of "democracy".
Above all, learn when to say
