See the dark world
An essays that doesn’t just hit a nerve when you read it, but that lingers at the back of your mind and refuses to leave you. It’s about that «certain type of darkness in the world that most people simply cannot see.» The author argues that we are perfectly able to see that the world is broken. However, most of us cannot see a world that is unacceptable. «Upon noticing that the world is broken, they reflexively list reasons why it is still tolerable.» Hence, a call to action: «So see the dark world. See everything intolerable. Let the urge to tolerify it build, but don’t relent. Just live there in the intolerable world, refusing to tolerate it.»
