[I want the USA back]

Kinda hard to survive in a society that worships independence if you’re weakened by disease.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Actually no.

Part of independence is being able to freely care for someone in need.

The woman did not wait for the government to do something, she went and helped.

That is independence.

we may ‘worship’ independence... but we also value protecting those that cannot protect themselves.

of course, there are those in society that take advantage of that.
