What would make our world better based on all the bad things we do to ourselves?

Question

My approach and reason for asking this is personal experience that is happening right now. I live America and I have to go by what the status quo says that is whatever the rest of humanity says. Some of them are called Target, some are the USA, some are Al Qaeda, some are my own family. When I came into the physical world the physical beings did and still do their physical things like kids bullying me in school, mom and dad punishing me and making me do things, getting graded in school for my performance, following established rules because I have behave a certain way, people being rude or too nice, situations coming and going, etc. You know the drill. It's getting on my nerves. Humans do their Human thing and it's killing them (us and me). Why are you doing it? You like doing that? I don't and I'm sure you don't but you do it anyway, why? Even when humans plead to each other for it all to stop, it almost never does and I don't want more. Who can I tell to make this all stop? Thanks.

Answer 1

The rules of society all come down to our basic instincts---humans are a gregarious species. We like coexisting, and therefore care about what others think of us in order to not be left alone. So we're all expected to adhere to social rules. The only problem is, humans come in all shapes and sizes, so the different ones are going to be rejected. It's the way it goes---there's no changing our natural instincts, unfortunately.

Of course, society has changed over time, regardless of our basic instincts. Be the change you want to see. Peace. :)

Answer 2

It is a matter of reallocating resources away from bad things and destructive things and towards better things that cause each individual to flourish and become his or her best.   If humans could stop fighting one another and work together in a spirit of cooperation and fairness then it would free up a lot of resources that now go towards death and destruction.
