The Life of Leaves

Society is generally wired to sustain things. Why live? Why help others live? Why persist the trash of human trivia in all its forms? Some people enjoy it because it is aesthetic. Others do not do it because it is not aesthetic. Darwinism has it that only one of these survives to reproduce. Some members of society are destined to be leaves. Some members are net destroyers. Objectively these are all amoral positions. But if morality takes a normative stance about survival, instead of merely a descriptive one, then the destroyers are immoral.

I am generally content with my role in life as a destroyer. The question is only how to interact with trash.
