    They can build their reputation, and be happy with it. Individualism is a lie to justify unequal distribution of resources.

    Show me someone born on a deserted island, who built their entire world and infrastructure from the ground up as an individual, and you’ll have a case for someone who deserves all that they’ve built. For the rest of us, we are a species that builds on the works of all others who came before, and we succeed together.

    The singular genius myth is a lie built to justify a race to the patent office, and dismiss multiple discovery.
