    Well, thats quite a broad term. As a minority member, I feel responsible to vote for equality and inclusion. Thats not great for those who would like „a strong leader“ or „just let the markets decide“ but I consider going against others‘ opinion less of an offense than going against their personhood.

    Edit: you have a good one as well. :) Edit2: do you put that license in manually or automatically?

        Thats actually a very interesting and healthy take imo. I‘m an altruist from birth and need to take better care of myself. But otherwise I‘m on the same track.

        Also, I‘m strongly against the thing they left out (probably to not polarise, which makes the point come across easier), people still trying to get a bigger pie than anybody else.

        But I guess both approaches are helpful.
