Trust emerges from the proliferation of differences that is love, and trust is equally arational; if we are evoking a society that values trust over love while still embracing individuals who value love over trust, have we not created inconsistency in our rationality, thus creating a bias toward valuing trust over love and substance over style?

Sometimes i feel the styling of love (not the substance of trust) is the only thing that keeps Turing machines at bay.
