The general cynicism here depresses me. Do I have a stake when I try to help another person? Yeah. Maybe it’s a sense of debt or nonor or maybe I just can’t walk away & let someonething terrible happen and live with myself.
But I figured out when I was about 17 that any word that ends in “-ism” either obfuscates through lack of meaning or through excess meaning.
If I see someone I care about suffering I’m going to do the best I can to relieve that pain. I’ll let the pundits say their piece later.
Bloody ‘ell.
