    Just thought this was relevant:

    “When people are fighting for their existence on this planet and are faced with the fatal question, 'to be or not to be', all considerations of humaneness or appearances crumble into nothing. These concepts are not floating in the air, but are born in man’s imagination where they will cease to exist when he ceases to exist. Man’s departure from this world dissolves those concepts into nothing because Nature does not know them. They are limited to the men in a handful of countries or rather a few races, and their value is only to the degree they unfold from these men’s feelings. Humaneness and showy idealism for the sake of appearances would disappear from the inhabited world if the races that created and upheld these concepts were lost.”

    In the real world, there's no kumbaya or live and let live or love all. That's just a delusion of 1960s America, a society unparalleled in history in prosperity and safety.
