The world is run by narcissists and egomaniacs, but the world is changed by artists and empaths. Do you agree?

Why or why not?

The world is changed by people that have too much money.

Art and emotion change the world for one person.... money changes everyone’s world.

@SW-User Art and emotion change hearts and minds. Which ultimately changes the way in which people use their resources. The world is changed through people's perceptions being changed. Money ultimately has no choice but to follow when enough people wake up to certain realities about life and force those in power to change with them.

@brokensignal mmm, that’s pretty idealistic.
This might be effective for the surface level of things but there are deeper parts of society that truly run everything that you and I can barely even imagine.

Human Trafficking... Genetic Experimentation.... Deep State Politics...

Privately Funded Laboratories...
Art and Emotion can’t even scratch the surface of the big picture

@SW-User Maybe... But usually when people wake up from their apathy and indifference to human suffering these kind of dark elements are drawn to the light and exposed. Not gonna get in to a conspiracy theory debate.... I feel ya. And perhaps it is idealistic. But I think history shows that these things ebb and flow and usually at the core of all big movements for change you have a collection of inspirational people/leaders/poets/artists etc who bring about the big shifts in perception/consciousness.
