Schindler’s list makes the holocaust be perceived as the worst thing that ever happened to humanity, but I question if that is really the case because we have had and still have pretty horrendous happenings. It’s the concept of ‘grievable lives’ — in our culture, some lives are more grievable than others.

I took more than that, I have edited the message to the best of my abilities to be understood, since English is not my native language. But the estimation of value is not one of productivity and precision here, such as the Google X Reddit Q&A, but at the compound effect in the world my message can bring about.

See, the message is not addressed only to the author of the message to which I have replied. The message may have a bigger, personal impact on him/her/they, but every reader who stumble upon the message — such as yourself — may derive conclusions.

Some of these conclusions may be towards my goal, which is to raise awareness to the economy of the pursuit of knowledge on the internet. I hope to have brought awareness of the gain in being continuously more proactive towards seeking answers for the questions life throws upon us.

Your reaction, adamantly against what I have arrogantly proposed, brings another perspective, one directed to the nature of the social pursuit of knowledge.

I myself find it less fruitful, but others may not — what a sublime jolt of pleasure to acknowledge that someone has taken their time to answer my question. What else can become of that? Perhaps a friendship, perhaps a world of opportunities?

It’s way beyond suck, it’s a massive clusterfuck and it’s the saddest thing that has ever happened in the world, literally (I’m sure who read thought it’s the holocaust, but Africa didn’t get that Oscar winning Spielberg movie).

Unfortunately I don’t think colonization explains all of it. Maybe warlords explain quite a lot

I’m sorry to bring it up but being January and that time to rethink our lives I will say it.

This has to be the laziest question I’ve ever seen in Reddit.

First, because you could have typed the same question in Google and not ask anyone to type it for you, but switching apps would be too much work, who cares

Second, because Google would give you an answer in 0.39 seconds and Reddit took 2 hours to reply. But who is on a rush, right

Just an observation
