      And the problem is I would totally give Elon or Trump half my cookie, it doesn’t matter that much to me and I try to avoid being petty.

        The very optimistic would suggest that maybe giving a cookie would inspire them to think deeper about the imbalance and how they could do better as a human being to others.

        But realistically, they’re going to take your cookie and then try to sell you that their cookies are better and you should buy them.

          The way I see it in such a scenario there’s no chance of it making them worse and at least its a tiny moment of human connection which can only be a good thing no matter how incalculably small.

          If my cookie audibly cracks like that when I break it in half maybe he’s right, especially if his name is Otis Spunkmeyer.
