This and That: End of the Debate on Right Side Triumphs

After the events, the speaker notes the right side won, comments on perceptions of hair color, wealth, and character, and observes prejudice affecting friendships and social circles.

Virtue and fortune deemed misaligned by The New Republic

It argues that suffering and wealth result from broader power dynamics among nations, not individual morality, challenging the idea that virtue yields happiness or favorable outcomes. The argument critiques moral causation and cites global inequities.
