At the Crossroads

[Anonymous No.50128655]

Friends of the world, cooler heads need to prevail if we don't want to continue the endless (and ultimately needless) cycle of pain and suffering. We have all the technology, wisdom and ability to truly create a "pragmatopia" on this planet, weren't it for what historian and anthropologist Riane Eisler termed the "Dominator Model" of society, wherein the excessive worship of the "warrior" archetype and "might makes right" meme are enforced and seen as the way to interact with one another.

We have so much in common and any differences or animosities are mainly the cause of the crudeness of language (nevermind translating between different languages) as well as trauma incurred during our lives which we never resolved and continue to subconsciously or otherwise blame outwardly on "the other".

Indeed, we would do well to try as we can to make those near and dear to us aware of the needlessly dire situation we find ourselves in, created by a select group of psychopaths who as some might put it "made a pact with the devil" for mere power and material wealth.

Ultimately, we all have much more influence over this world through our actions than we care to admit and it is only through the ancient fear of the unknown and the luxury of apathy if we find ourselves in material comfort, that we do not exercise our abilities to bring about change. I suggest all to look within themselves and see the child they once were and how bright, mysterious and full of wonder the world truly is. Traumatized as we all might be, cynical apathy is not the answer and we all can say "we are not going to take this anymore" and together forge a world beautiful beyond our imagination. This is not merely a hypothesis, but a truth just beyond the horizon. Will shapes fate.

All the best and, as it were, Godspeed

tl;dr. I want to see the planet mostly empty again. I don't care if there's suffering on the journey. Fuck you.

I have already done so way back and there is truly no need for anyone to do so anymore, as we are de facto in a post-scarcity scenario, if only we as a society allowed it to come to fruition and stopped being greedy.

The game is over, as I am fond of saying. The bankers won. They are in control of the Pikes Peak batholith and the multi-trillion-dollar granite tunnel system—a highly symbolic 40 miles west of Denver, Colorado in the Front Range. But they are in control of much more than the end-time survival apparatus. They control not only the military and government of the United States of America but through the power of major corporations and the corruptibility of businessmen and government officials, fiat currency manipulation by the WiΩards of Fiat Currency at the Federal Reserve System, a small army of propagandists and “hackers” (this is a technically incorrect use of the term) who are fighting to maintain control of the Frankenstein monster they created called the Internet (in a war I fear they are going to lose), and even the Republican form of government they created which inevitably—and I would argue by design—fosters centralized control and assures only a handful of “elected” officials must be compromised to control an entire country, they control the entire Western world.

>post scarcity
I don't think this is a good thing. The systems required to enable this are probably too technologically advanced for humans to safely coexist with... life shouldn't be needlessly hard but it certainly shouldn't be too easy.

>stop being greedy
Would a post-scarcity lifestyle prevent greed?

Those in power like their unfair slice of the pie.
They get underlings to kill each other for a slightly bigger piece.
Unless you have a way to control people the way they do, you cannot win.
I myself am cursed with part of the dark tetrad, these people in power do not care for their fellow man except in how they can use them.

What do you propose as a solution, or way through this? Or are you doom posting?

I think this is being way too defeatist. Truly, we live in a wondersome "simulation/game/play" and we choose our path every day. We are much more powerful than we think or are lead to beLIEve.

checked, fellow duckposter
I agree that we need to change our minds and ethics first before we can move into a realm of post-scarcity effectively. "Representative demoCRAZY" leads to personal abdication of responsibility and a disempowerment of the invidvidual, which only strengthens sociopathic cults in power.

It truly is a complex and lengthy conundrum. In a practical sense, I reckon everyone individually would do well to find out for themselves what their path is in this life and follow it, even if it may seem strange or scary.
This may allow each of us to come closer to living out our own full potential, level up our skill tree in the best way, so to speak.

Further, any sociological system requires participants and complex systems are neither inherently stable nor predictable. I think a deeper comprehension of everyone individually working out their own path and how it can fit in with a more just and joyful society is a powerful catalyst. The knowledge is there, the will can be cultivated.
All the best, my friend.
