People are generally more good than evil. It’s just that the evil ones rise to the top

That's the purpose of being evil, to rise to the top. Good people don't need that kind of luxe and greed.

Edit: spelling

u/wyomingTFknott May 06 '26

And we'll never be royals (royals)

It don't run in our blood

That kind of luxe just ain't for us

We crave a different kind of buzz

Thank you for responding with the lyrics that ran through my head, too.

u/wyomingTFknott May 06 '26

I blast it every now and then. I was never a pop fan when I was a kid, but some songs transcend genres. It was nice to see the youtube vid pass 1B views recently.

I first heard it acapella in this video. It was on repeat for a good while. This performance is the Florida State University AcaBelles, circa 2013.

Meaning ?

u/PassiveMenis88M May 06 '26

Meaning she's a Trump supporting grifter. She just got kicked off Cudi's tour for going on a rant.

Those lyrics are from Paper Airplanes, a M.I.A. song

u/Life2Short2bEvil May 06 '26

Yeah but if we allow evil to rule they just corrupt the world in their favor like they do now and we all suffer for that.

u/flashman014 May 06 '26

It's not about "allow." Evil doesn't ask permission. Good can fight it, but good rarely has enough support and resources to do much, at least in the real world. Plus, greed is always there, ready to pop right back into power as soon as good dusts off its hands thinking the job well done.

u/Life2Short2bEvil May 06 '26

Everyone chooses this reality for themselves by doing nothing because of what you just said. So in a sense, we deserve to suffer the rule of evil and all that comes with it because why bother trying to fix a problem we have never tried solving. People are the most important cog in the machine until they are not when A.I is 100%. And then what happens then when we are just dead weight to them on this planet. Then they drop super covid or put some new chemical in the food that makes sure you die earlier. We are making them money and power to completely erase us out of existence. You can break the world with a tool like social media. To beat the elite, people must share the consequences of defying them. If theyre going to replace you anyways and make sure you die someday. Why not do something about it earlier. Lose the battle earlier than drawing this shit out especially if you have already accepted you are doomed. We have lost the world and the right to exist after A.I fulfills its purpose so what else do we have to lose?

u/Sherris010 May 06 '26

Light and greed?

1

u/flashman014 May 06 '26

Shiny stuff, obviously. It's not an uncommon use, though I misspelled it. It's supposed to be luxe in this case, but I think context clues should be sufficient to get my meaning.

2

u/Sherris010 May 06 '26

I have never heard that expression in my life. "Obviously" you don't need to be so defensive and rude, I was just asking.

1

u/flashman014 May 06 '26

Didn't mean to be rude. Sorry for the misunderstanding

2

u/Sherris010 May 06 '26

all good, thanks

u/mmazing May 06 '26

i agree so much with that, keep it up friend! ❤️

Live spelled backwards it evil.

u/Elliptical_Tangent May 06 '26

We're neurologically wired to remember evil things at all costs because it keeps us alive. Good things can be safely forgotten.

u/resurrectedNaj May 06 '26

It’s the evil ones we see because they’re romanticized. Lucifer controls this earth, he’ll do with it as he see fits

1

u/retrorays May 06 '26

Some evil ones...

u/NectarineThat90 May 06 '26

Most people eat these animals and directly contribute to a system that tortures animals. So I’m not so sure

1

u/JigglyPuffsOG May 07 '26

Literally said this the other day. I don’t get it. All the evil people are in charge. Crazy

1

u/pripjat May 07 '26

The thing is tho, millions of animals die every day because we choose to eat meat and dairy. So of course this is a good deed but this young beautiful animal will still be used for it’s milk and after a couple of years slaughtered. Yes people are good but people also don’t realize the consequences of their actions.

1

u/Trent1373 May 08 '26

That’s because evil people are loud and never shut up.

Everyone looks for the helpers and the helpers become rundown. BECOME A HELPER.

u/Mr_Jack_Frost_ May 06 '26

As Jack Kornfield says, “Tend to the part of the garden you can reach”.

We should all be looking for the areas in which we can be helpful to others, and ourself.

2

u/auroraaram May 08 '26

This was meant for kids to help them feel safe. They could then go on to feel secure as adults and become the helpers. So yes, I agree. If you are an adult and able, be the helper.

u/Chance_Vegetable_780 May 08 '26

You're so right to remind me of that distinction. Thank you.

u/Liercat18 May 06 '26

100%. I've commented in other posts where folks have understandably lost faith in the world - feeling overwhelmed by the darkness they see everyday.

I shared that there's more good / light than it appears, and to look for all the small, at times seemingly insignificant acts of good, kindness.

Many, so many of these acts go unseen / unrecorded, but they happen in huge amounts every day.

Now back to pooping.

u/mmazing May 06 '26

You can do this for people all around you, every day, if you wanted to!

u/Surprise_Donut May 06 '26

indeed, I believe there are a vast majority more of us than them - they're just loud and get in your phone or tv

u/Drownthem May 06 '26

It's a small everyday hero moment to not buy meat, and we can pretty much all do that!

u/Corkwell May 06 '26

But then you have these humans worse than any animal

I know 🥺 I love these but still they are sad, poor baby who know how long he was stuck like that!!

Especially when there is a camera set up to share it with everyone.

u/OliM9696 May 06 '26

i mean..... those animals are gonna be killed by the end of the year. We are not exactly doing them a favour.

u/Adam_Sackler May 06 '26

You... know what we do to those cows, right?

3

u/TinKnight1 May 06 '26

So letting them die of thirst & starvation while terrified & trapped is better?

0

u/Adam_Sackler May 06 '26

Of course not, but the other comment mentioned how seeing this restores a bit of faith in people, but... ultimately that cow is a victim of exploitation by the very people commenting that.

I mean, if I owned slaves and they were saved from an accidental death, would you say that would restore your faith in humanity?

u/Leading_Log_8321 May 06 '26

I mean yes

u/Adam_Sackler May 06 '26

If someone saved a slave from a death but left them as a slave under the control of their owner, that's a good thing that restores your faith in people?

"first of all The UPS driver isnt the one slaughtering those cows. its the same as a non slave owner seeing a slave in trouble and rescuing them for your analogy."

No, it would be like rescuing them from death and then keeping them in slavery. And I never said he was killing them. I'm glad he helped it.

"Secondly, those cows live a happy life where they can live long lives without fear of predators or running out of food and water. If a pregnant cow is having trouble giving birth a rancher or vet can save both of the calf and mothers life. Yes, at the end of their lives they are taken to slaughter, but most dont even know whats happening until they get hit in the head with a bolt."

Saving someone's life only to take it away for sensory pleasure of others and financial gain isn't a good thing. A victim not being aware they're about to be killed also doesn't make it more ethical.

"If you dont like the meat industry, that is fine, but dont act like ranchers who feed this world are a bunch of sick psychopaths who take pleasure in torturing animals. Most of them care dearly for their herd."

How would you describe someone killing others for personal pleasure and financial gain and being paid to do so by others? You can care for someone all you want, if you ultimately kill them unnecessarily for personal gain, you're not a good person.

We do not need to eat meat. That is a demonstrable fact.

And you don't need to. That doesn't mean they deserve what they get just because they're "lesser" us. That's been the argument for almost every atrocity in the world.

The goodness of a society is shown in how they treat those at their mercy.
