Who are your heroes? Who do you look to for guidance on how to be a virtuous person? (non-family/friends) 500 degen tip for up to 10 answers @bountybot - can you make this into a bounty? Context I think it's important to have civilizational heroes — people (historical or present-day) that we look to for examples of virtue and for guidance. But increasingly feel like there's no room for heroes to exist in our modern world. Wondering how others relate to this, and who they look to outside of family/friends.

i think there are difficulties with putting someone high on that pedestal. i'd be surprised if anyone can live up to your perfect embodiment of virtues. that said, i like to pare it down with some filter criteria to help see who's doing well in that domain despite their circumstances. i'm often willing to not negate that standing over some other aspects of their life that feel less virtuous i hold in high regard high functioning billionaires that manage to chase their kingdom and (at least outwardly) not alienate their kids. Mark Zuckerberg and Jesse Itzler come to mind

Thank you for your thoughtful submission on civilizational heroes. Your nuanced take on hero worship and specific examples of Zuckerberg and Itzler as modern role models adds valuable perspective to the discussion. Submission logged.
