Wealth should have a cap. Once you've made, I dunno, $100 million dollars, that's it. Congratulations, you won Capitalism. You benefitted from society so much, you'll never have a material worry again. We'll name a dog park after you. Everything past that goes into a "social benefit fund."
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

We have to choose good every day. We have to choose acceptance and equality and equity and justice. None of us are inherently beyond that. And the first step to doing good is recognising that you aren’t better than anyone else.

Granted, people can assert that reading Bram Stoker’s Dracula in a dimly-lit café in Prague on a snowy day whilst having multiple cappuccinos and croissants “won’t fix you”, but they’re failing to understand an undeniable truth:
It certainly can’t hurt.
It certainly can’t hurt.

Freezing cold morning but managed to get warm enough while actually running to make it enjoyable enough. Perhaps not surprising then that, apart from lots of other runners, it seemed much quieter on the footpaths than a typical Saturday.
