A lot of people don’t understand what Karma is really about because it’s so casually used outside of the beliefs of Asia. Karma(like heaven and hell) were created to make people feel better about really bad people getting away for their crimes against humanity and nature.
I can see why BlackPink has stood out among the other kpop girl groups. Girl groups prior to them were about being feminine and singing love songs to flirt with boys and men as their fanbase. They were designed for the male gaze. BlackPink is for the gaze of girls and the message of empowerment.
Education is a pretty big barrier/boundary between the social classes. The servants, slaves, and girls weren’t allowed to learn to read as a way to check their power.
A lot of societies, cultures, and civilizations are hierarchical. Those in power make and maintain clear lines to define the classes. There is no social mobility between them.

The β€œAmerican Dream” attracts those who want social mobility, to get out of being in the caste systems they came from.
Like killing the biggest elephant, and cutting down the oldest and largest tree, the owning of people as slaves are trophies. πŸ† Look! I conquered these people! I own them now.

A lot of boys and men see girls and women as trophies too. I felt hunted when I’m with guys like that.
Trophies, are luxury items, they are outwards shows of wealth, power, and their legitimacy to their privileges.
The looting of historical artifacts by western colonialism and during instability of wars is this. A person can say β€œI love this stuff!” and wear the clothes and bag the objects of the people they murdered. Trophies πŸ† of their conquests of the world.
Objectifying a person or a people is the inability to see them as humans but as trophies πŸ†

Trophy Hunters love animals. They kill them, preserve their body parts and use them to decorate their home, sell, or give away as gifts.

You can love someone & still not respect or understand them.
It’s easier than ever to live in a cave of only your own narrow interests and have absolutely no idea what is happening in the world.
Life is an open book test if you bother to read what is out there, really.

You can give a kid a globe and hand them an empty map of the world and ask them to label the oceans and continents, they will guess and not bother to search the globe even for correct spelling. 🫀
A lot of k-6+ US teachers in training aren’t strong on subjects like science, math, music, art, and even PE. Cost cutting has cut out specialized k-6 teachers so the kids aren’t getting it. You can only teach what you know. The more you know, the more you can teach to the others.
Middle school and on, the teachers around here are supposed to hold specialized degrees to teach their subject. K-6 does not require that but pass 1 college level math class for would be teachers. That’s all.
K-6 teachers aren’t expected to be experts of upper level subjects like 7-12th grade math. It’s a problem when the school is pushing higher level math sooner. The teachers are caught unprepared. Curriculum isn’t set by teachers but districts.
Experts carry the textbooks πŸ“š in their head and can start over from scratch if they have to.
A lot of cultures prize πŸ† being extremely educated, knowledgeable, and have possession of skills because this something you carry in your head. People who have been forced out of their homes because of natural disasters or wars have to start over somewhere else with what ever they can carry.

This Louvre heist reminds me of one of my great pet peeves, that we as a society do not teach people the difference between a burglary and a robbery

This is how you know I wasn’t involved. I’d have snatched the Regent first. πŸ’Ž
Spectacular robbery of the French crown jewels at the Louvre today: three masked men climbed a ladder, broke a window, lifted nine priceless pieces from the Apollo gallery, got away on motorbikes. No one hurt.
Reportedly the most famous piece in the room, the 140 carat Regent diamond, was not taken.

You can be polite in public while doing cruel things in private.
There is a difference between being nice and kind. Nice is often a label for spineless pushover who lets others get away with things. Kind is about standing with the marginalized. Kind is helping the ones societies have been ignoring.
The quiet ones need creative outlets and let the art and writing speak for us.
Being the quiet person means listening to everybody else’s complaints while being silent about your own. When some of us do talk, we get dismissed: β€œHold on, I’m busy.” β€œYou’re so nice(for not retaliating when we mistreat you)!” β€œYou think you’re better than us?” β€œStop being so defensive!”
