A big component of this post is trying to help me make progress towards the question “if you have a thing that you are part of that is good, how many fucked up things can you tolerate before you decide to leave instead of trying to fix it?”. The “good” part does not need to look like there being a big mission or glorious vision of “good”. It can also take the form of “spreading civilization in general even if the people actually doing that work are not motivated by that specific goal”.
