It was one of those santa-claus things. I believed in Santa Claus until one day I thought about it, and then said, “Of course he doesn’t exist. That’s impossible.” It was the mere act of letting myself think about it openly.

Recently I’ve been questioning some foundational beliefs I hold…

Equal Value: This is odd, this strange idea that all people should be valued equally. Valued in what sense?

We don’t value cows equally. Some cows cost more. Just going off of memory, a cow typically costs $800 to $2,000 each.

A blonde-hair, blue-eyed baby girl can cost around $150,000. Baby boys typically cost less than girls, and brown babies less than whites and east asians. From what I heard, non-white or non-east asian babies cost around $65k on the black market. 32 cows.

In what sense are people to have equal value? In reality, we know this is not true, not even at birth. Equality at birth is a lie.

This quote bears repeating: “What is a cynic? A man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.”
