In the 1970s a labor surplus shifted the relative attitude the owner class had for the working class. They basically unleashed their dogs to wander and beg as increasing poverty set in. This trend continues and it looks like they’re trying to kill us in a million subtle ways.
Who do you have an obligation for?
Looking out for yourself is also making connections and looking out for those who will do the same for you. Certainly not for those who would just as soon poison you and charge you huge sums for the cure, if there were any.

I'm torn between science and the collective knowledge of humanity has taught us to doubt our intuitions and people have gotten so captured by this machine that they doubt every intuition and slide toward denial of reality itself.

I beg to differ.
Both very based Ideas. Embrace the paradox, be social conformist for your individual pleasure and also be a non-comformist to innovate and create new ways of being for the wellbeing of your social sphere.
