If I want A doctor, then yes, I can just call. Any time 24/7, I can talk to someone. Worst case, it’s a nurse.
And I don’t have to be rich, it’s free.

So why can’t I read them for free too?
I can. Don’t you have libraries in your country?
Someone knocked on my door, asking if I had seen a missing person. I hadn’t. I asked if I could join the search, they told me where to go to volunteer.
Long story short: They handed me a high-visibility vest with their logo on to wear. I had to return it.
Then represent the person like that, but not worse.
Plenty of people in history is presented as pure bad, but reality is more complex.
For example, we know Adolf Hitler as one of the worst people in history (at least here where I live). But he did a lot of good for Germany. At the time, this is what he was known for, and that is why he was popular enough to be democratically elected.
But if we only know him as a purely bad person, we will not recognize the next Hitler before it’s too late. We will see a person doing good stuff, but with signs that too many people will ignore.
There’s also the idea that when you do good, you deserve to be recognized for that, no matter what else you’ve done. Not just because it’s the right thing to do, but also to encourage more of that.
