If the assumption is that “good works” somehow make the weak strong, yes. Nature works on a very simple principle, only the strong survive. The weak, by definition, are not strong, and therefore don’t survive. Only those who gain strength, survive, making them by definition, strong. Changing the laws of nature is impossible, learning to manipulate them to one’s advantage is strength.
Yes. And no. Yes if you want to get all ecclesiastical. No, because God wins and all of heaven and earth will be remade. I'm on team "create heaven on earth to bring order and peace on earth." Not catchy, but exact.

Yes and no. My previous comment was meant as a critique of the limitations of "safe havens" like Nostr, not an attempt to get anyone to abandon their efforts. Even when imperfect, genuine benevolence still matters, as you're helping reduce the risk of potential suffering for others. But the power imbalance will never disappear. That is fact.
