Perhaps you should spend more time figuring this out instead of running around in circles.

I have no reason to and I won't feel distressed or guilty about it either

There is only movement.

Being fortunate enough to be literate is less something to be proud of and more something to be thankful for. The biggest factors are pure chance elements. Being born in the right area of the world, at the right time, and with the right genetic makeup. In addition we stand on the shoulders of all those who came before us. These are more important factors than anything regarded as 'personal achievement'. Assuming this article is true about literacy surely being in the 30% should make us feel humble rather than superior.

I'm a people optimist. Virtually everyone has potential untapped whether they know it or not. And obviously it goes without saying those who don't have primary needs met are the most fucked over. We owe it to those less fortunate to help them become literate/bring out their potential.

Very much this.

Further, judging a fish's worth by its ability to code doesn't mean the fish is worthless. Believing said fish is worthless is a belief with no worth.

If Jill Stein voters are "people optimists" what are Gary Johnson and Harambe voters?

[FoJaR]

Gary Johnson voters are people who thought that the coach from blue mountain state was a real person running for president

Harambe voters are stupid can't have a ghost president no ghosts allowed it's in the constitution
