    It’s still about personal desire over public good, though. That’s my point. Doing something only because it hurts something you care about, rather than because it damages a part of society that doesn’t directly impact you, is killing us. Both metaphorically and physically. Having empathy for people directly in your life is good… but having empathy for those who are little more than a concept in every day life is how society will better itself.
