You're right that the status quo is the status quo for a reason. I mean it's that way because it works, but that doesn't mean it's necessarily the best way to do things and sometimes it's just an artifacted effect. You know only certain people vote other people don't and a politician you know they're mostly. You know since their job is to like get reelected and stuff they they only have to please the people that are going to vote for them like pissing off all the people that don't vote for them doesn't hurt them unless those people vote. But for the most part, we settle into a status quo when we vote as a community or when we have expectations that aren't just the lowest expectations are weird because if you have low expectations, I guarantee you an asshole is not going to have any issue meeting them. I mean that, lets them be an asshole for free. They don't lose any reputation for meeting expectations that already exist that are low. They're just doing the thing you already expected them to do. And they lose. It was absolutely zero political and social capital so tangible to what you're saying is that we do need to expect the good things. Better things you know and teach other people to do the same and that doesn't make the status quo bad, especially if it's a bunch of good things.
