Beauty and inner worth does not rely on appearance, except in the eyes of modern society (or of the majority at a specific time?)

I do believe that in the eyes of modern society looks, money and any other superficial metric is more valued than the mental prowess of a person. But I cannot understand how we normalize it, we accept it. We cry ourselves to sleep about it; why must we accept the judgement of a superficial world?

Most people who changed the world and enriched humanity ( among them rulers, philosophers, artists, inventors, etc ) were not good looking at all, nay they were complete losers concerning their personal life and considered by the mainstream to be in the best of cases misfits, in the worst misanthropists ( Schopenhauer as a old misogynist, Nietzsche as unremarkable and lonely, Tesla as an idiot.)

Why must we not battle against this nonsense? I am far from those who have lost all hope to grab back the power from the walking holes. Do you surrender to their perception of you?

I refuse!

I was in the truck with my boss and co-worker, I brought up the conversation and importance of trust. Here was an answer by my coworker "So long as its not me or my family I do not care", its a limiting way of interreacting with existence, the people are a force that is blind, and when they come together as a mob they have no thought to their own or autonomy. So why do the greats get thrown aside, tarnished or looked down upon? If your life was concerned with immediate matters and only the pragmatic use of understanding so you can perform a task efficiently, it tells you that the education of the individual is of this kind:

1. He learns what he needs to learn.
2. He does it for a wage so he doesn't die of starvation.
3. He may be learned but it is entirely motivated by profit and social prestige.

Why concern ourselves? Because our actions have an effect on others, our behavior does matter even when we do nothing. But when a people are ignorant willfully or otherwise, you can't expect someone with a limited mind to understand an infinite one.

Dysgenic societies that prioritise r-selected offspring tend to focus on external qualities like external beauty and physique.Jews have turned white society into a dysygenic one like the blacks.
