Caring for someone is seen as labour. It's a phrase spoken in a society wherein individuals are quickly losing all practical reasons to care about one another. The Church, the family, marriage, nationhood, heritage... not what they once were. The bonds are breaking down, and people like Beth are unfulfilled by the act of caring.

It's a pretty disturbing phrase, desu. Thank god not too many people use it. I might just be melodramatic; society has always had its self-absorbed assholes.

why do you care
the general public has never appreciated good shit and im sure you dont either

I've started studying philosophy on my own by using the /lit/ philo guide and I am making decent progress I think but I am afraid I am reading right through without actually getting it. Right now I am re-reading some of Plato's books before moving onto Aristotle. How can I ensure decent understanding of Plato as well as future philosophers? Thanks
