My adjective? Innocent. I didn't create the world's problems, and fixing the world isn't my job. We elect public officials, establish governments, and pay taxes to maintain institutions specifically tasked with addressing these issues. The existence of injustice doesn't automatically make every person who isn't actively fighting it a coward. There are travesties happening around the world every day. Which ones are you personally fixing? And does your failure to address the others make you a coward? I reject the premise that I'm morally responsible for every wrong I didn't commit, couldn't prevent, and have no practical means of correcting. Innocent. That's my adjective.

I was walking earlier and thinking about me versus the mob and how best to change the world. I wonder about this topic often. I want to start up a walking philosophers school modeled after Plato's. Come walk in my field, find all the sacred cows you can.
