Hey guys, loved this subreddit for a long time and recently I’ve been trying to figure out a theory that I’d heard a while ago.
Basically, the theory states that there should be a world in which, no matter where or how or who you’re born to, you shouldn’t need to choose because it should all be the same living conditions.
Does anyone remember or know about this? The theory states that, before your born, you should be able to be placed in any position in the world and have the same life and opportunities.
It’s some theory within the egalitarian world but I just can’t remember it enough to google it. Does anyone have any tips? Much appreciated :)
Edit: it’s the veil of ignorance! Sorry, I’ve figured it out. If anyone wants to debate or discuss it though, down to have a comment section to debate!
There's nothing here!
