the scarcest resource is give-a-shit. even something perfect will collapse if there's not enough give-a-shit to go around. the only reason anything works is because there's people in the background invisibly doing thankless labour to keep everything working. it's so hard to explain this point. I've heard people say it before I became a community organizer and was like "I guess that makes sense" but now that I've got all this experience it REALLY makes sense. I'm not sure how I'd explain this experience-backed understanding to myself from three years ago. probably impossible.
