You reap what you sow, no matter how rich you are

Everyone is flexing their intellectual muscle about the deep understanding of geopolitics, spheres of influence or art of negotiation (and I might add my 2 cents to that later), but it is all as simple as one of the first rules parents teach babies about living in a society: treat others like you want to be treated.

I don’t understand how the world came to admiration of public humiliation and verbal abuse. It’s absolutely irrelevant how much money that person makes or what position they hold, or which university they went to. The moment someone fails to uphold a simple rule of being polite and treat others with respect, thats the moment they loose all the right to be treated with any respect and politeness. I might never be as rich as Elon Musk or Trump or Vance, but I am 100% happier, surrounded by wonderful, decent, genuinely supportive people building (and defending) a peaceful and loving future world.
