O again

If some people who have presently achieved a certain definition of monetary "success" also seem to think now they are entitled to act like uncaring, unempathetic, self-absorbed human beings just to make themselves feel better, why on earth should I make myself be one of the enablers of that pattern of behavior? 

I am not getting any rewards for indulging them in their delusions. Also,  in my opinion, if I were, it would not even be doing them any favors. They're likely to come back in the next life as one of the people they chose to avoid. But of course they may not believe in that sort of thing.

What if it would be useful for the planet if they found more people who also at one point had an inclination to avoid the topics which made them feel uncomfortable, but those people found ways to overcome that pattern, in order to begin to see into a healthier future...

Just thinking of Omelas again.
