We're all going to die in a relatively short amount of time so I had this weird idea, and tell me if it's stupid, but maybe we could all be kind to each other until then??

The world sucks. I say we screw it up. #MuskLeverage
We have a good enough story about what humans are. It is physicalist (materialist, illusionist). It is social construction. It is understanding the evolutionary structures of the brain/mind. It is analysis of arbitrary social institutions.
AI will force a paradigm shift in psychology, economics, choice making. All given psychologies as they flow from environmental structures. We control our social institutions (economy, family structure, norms). VR/Matrix will allow us to control all environmental input. We are but representations.
Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you've got to be kind."
"And then, one Thursday, nearly two thousand years after one man had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people for a change..." - Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy
Every human gets 32000 days on earth. That's it. That's a very short time. It's the only reason I don't off myself now. Because even at 40 I know it's almost over. Stick around, I want to see if the U.S. pulls out of this tail dive. I hope it doesn't. No empires for military industrial complexs.
I’m confident that not every human gets 32000 days. It is one of the defining reasons why I don’t believe in a god: Children needlessly suffering and dying in a brief existence.

I've wondered if that's something we should do, but I can't imagine how that would help ME.
My life is short.. and will embrace kindness in my final years
Thank the Lord we have a continually renewing fount of freedom, empathy, and optimism.
