58. my post isn't intended to be personal; the sentiment you express is common, &
i've expressed more or less the same one in the same way.

but i later came to see it as an expression of the problem, not the solution.

you say you are advantaged, therefore you take responsibility for these others.

then you say we're all responsible for each other.

but you can surely see that were someone to say, "i'm disadvantaged, therefore i must take responsibility for cilla4progress" the implications are completely different?

where there are permanent relationships of inequality between adults, there is sickness.
