from Diary 2023-07-02 Different people have different views of the world.

  • world view is different for each person.
  • When people with very similar worldviews are all clustered together, it leads to the assumption that there is only one worldview.
  • Such people sometimes ostracize “people with a different worldview.” - Response of an old man in a rural village to [traveler’s merchant
  • If A does not ostracize B, but B ostracizes A, then the two cannot get along.

No need to persuade those who can’t pay the price.

  • If travelers want to get something of value from the village, they need to convince others
  • If not, no need to persuade.
  • Simply leave the village.
