What rebirth is about

I'm not sure if this is on point but I had some insight recently. The Buddha never said that 'we are all one' as a kind of entity or being, or so those acquainted with the tradition say such.

Rebirth is about the fueling of ignorance itself, not of anyone or anything else, both in the moment and in the lasting future, at every scale possible('personal,' 'societal,' 'planetary,' 'cosmic,' of all 'realm,' etc).

When you fuckup then die, the unwholesome kamma which fuel this whole circus will still possibly rippen and have to be dealt with.

Being a noble one is about decreasing the entropy of ignorance at every scale and with it, suffering.

When this body dies, that's it. What remains is 'your' bad Kamma and how it allows every and all to indulge in it at their own detriment, like poison for this already sick world.
