Too often in our society today, to call someone a good person is to treat her like a saint, a monk or the priest next door. Someone who only lives to serve someone else. Fewer people would think about you or me. Anyway, being a good person feels almost impossible to reach, being a good person or in a state a good citizen is either beyond or against self-interest. Actually the word "citizenship" established when it was a thing to become a good citizen. Because it did not exist before. A pro-social, someone who is collecting badges to become a better "person". Of course, we always think about the past as something that is nostalgic and worth protecting. But it does often seem like that this time has passed. Nowadays it reminds me of the core concept of the Social Credit System in China. You may be going to judge me now, but all they are doing is rating your pro-social life. I am not a fan of that credit system, if you like to we can have a discussion about that. But we have to carefully develop something like this. Cause our world is becoming more transparent, if you want it or not it’s going to happen.
