Was never an Asimov fan but this IS prescient.
Another commentator summed the current torrid reality up to "All rights and no responsibility" - eg, Rogan's rights to magnify falsehoods, & spotify's rights to air them, specifically abt COVID19 vaccines, devoid of any #socialresponsibility to the frontline nurses, medics and doctors, nor to the most vulnerable chronically ill folks. When individuals exercise only their rights without responsibility, there is anarchy, not #society.🧐

i'm not trying to shame

i'm doing withering condemnation, zero appeals

their real concern is not #gaza

their real concern is making excuses to abrogate #socialresponsibility

they are useless entitled dead weight

they aren't even on the #left

they're cosplayers

Employers can help to resolve the problem by offering paid time off, but barriers to the ballot box remain.

The most discussed and studied methods to improve seem to be those designed for schoolchildren.

I see this pattern a lot as I learn about virtue-related interventions and studies, and I find it discouraging. Adults often seem unduly self-congratulatory. In particular, I do not think there is good reason to be sanguine about the level of social responsibility in the typical adult.
