My bluntly honest view on "building a better world together", as it relates to what individual people contribute:

I don't want to hear about all of the ways in which you can't contribute because of your circumstances. Everybody has circumstances. I want to hear about the margins you've worked to find in your life where you *can* make a difference, even if a small one.

If there are no such margins and you claim that there's no way you can do *anything at all*, then I simply will not believe that you've even tried.

I don't expect you to change the world on your own, or to contribute in any one specific way. I *do* expect you to try your best and introspect on your role in society, as I expect from everyone else, myself included.
