The work that I do leads me to survey roughly 1k-2k headlines a day, looking for useful content seeds, as I think of them.
I also have on my Facebook page more than 100 local news facebook pages running through my feed. I highly recommennd all of you do this.
You will see narratives spit out with sameness and with near-same timing. It’s fascinating to behold.
I have been surveying western philosophical thought pretty intensely the last 4 years, and eastern philosophical/religious thought the last 2 years (still far behind here than my western thought understanding).
I have a fair sense of world and prehistory up to current year.
I have a LOT of 10,000 mile high survey views of the current news of the world, history, and major philosophical thought, east and west (still have yet to learn African and Pre-Columbian American mythology, thought to gain a truly ecumenical survey view).
I believe this gives me a unique perspective on what’s going on the world right now.
I say all this to build some standing in the words I speak (though not disinviting critique) with you, whoever might be reading this.
The key fight behind all the other false dramas these engineers at the top keep spinning through their tight control of the means of social and cultural production is over Intellectual Property versus Individual Sustainable Flourishing.
We have the technology to build defendable citadels that can provide for most of the essential needs and, in network with other like-designed citadels, could quickly, with minimal population sizes (perhaps as low as 5K), provide a fully sustainbly flourishing community where each individual, by nature of the citadels themselves, are incentivized to want one another to win when value is exchanged between them.
We have the technology to incentivize consensual exchange.
What will stop this is only this- if technology is protected by Intellectual Property Rights. The Citadelians (mostly, but not exclusively, billionaires, and not all billionaires are Citadelians) understand that technology is not on their side. It favors small-scale sovereignty. It favors defense, overwhelmingly. The cost of coercion to hold an unwilling land has gotten to prohibitively high numbers.
They know this. So they need to scare us, divide us, shock and awe us, traumatize us to keep us from talking too much among ourselves, to figure out that we already have the power here and now to neutralize tyranny by building our own citdals, so that the poorest of the poor in our community is yet a citadelian when facing the threat of tyranny.
The woketarian shrillitarian meltdown addicts are nothing more than mouthpieces of mostly white citadelians, delighted in the trauma these concern trolls are inflicting on everyone around them, in the name of helping the poor creatures that can’t do it themselves….wannabe Christs sacrificing their former family and friends so that they can keep on sinning, but still feel righteous about it.
The MAGA Tards and their Trump Trump Trump are mouthpieces of the former citadelians who didn’t go so deep, so fast, so hard into entangling themselves in China (not that they didn’t entangle, everyone entangled with China).
What you are seeing right now, the alleged Freedom and Bill of Rights champions and the alleged End Hate and End Racism Cultists, are two satellite countries, one representing the ascendant Citadelian Empire and the other representing the former Citadelian Empire (with both sides including some nouveau riche wannabe generational citdaleians still auditioning for the part).
You Leftists and you conservatives are but pawns in a war between billionaires in which both sides agree on one thing, we want, in the end, to be the exclusive holders of the ‘right’ to manufacture technology to assure that the version the poors gets (we are all poors to Citadelians if we are not Citadelians) is limited in function and tied to a subscription plan.
The poor rank and files of both these shrill sides are mostly the product of being made by the faction they chose than being stewards of their own beliefs, stewards of their own preferences.
In truth, if you strip away the morality claims of both sides, we poors have far more in common with one another than not, and there is an ineffable gulf between us and the Citadelian class.
We have the technology, we have even ancient customs, that can enable leftists to live next to magas with no fear of threat from the other, for both understand that the other is a citadel in and of themselves. The cost of coercion is too high. People who don’t like each other can yet share value with one another with no fear to hinder consensual exchange, even if the communities might not exchange as much value with one another as they do with more like-minded communities.
We can create resources where we live at scales never even dreamed of before. We have opportunities in 3D printing, new developments in vertical farming, the development of power foods like microgreens, we have ever-more-difficult-to-crack encryption technologies, plant engineering that can enable us to grow more and more raw materials by creating plants that can produce them (like certain chemicals, etc).
We have the ability to augment our expertise with AI services that can provide quick, naturally expressed and understandable expert advice in multiple disciplines, including medicine and technology development itself.
Microdrones 3D printed and armed with munitions of various kinds able to be cranked out in defense of a community.
The ability to create local digital, secured currency, and labor exchanges, and more ways to exchange value with like-minded, and geographically-proximal individuals and communities.
The future is either subscription services that artificially maintain the gap between the Citdaelians and the poors or hundreds of thousands of citdaels scattered throughout these lands, and most in places where currently no one is living (or very few).
The old cities will be demolished and redesigned to be honeycombs of citdaels that can create sustainably flourishing communities.
The choice is ours, here and now, and I am doing what I can to make my family sustainably flourishing, and hoping to find people in my city willing to do the same. I am working with other people on other projects as well, like-minded people.
The movement to become sustainbly flourishing is growing, but we still need way more people, of course.
Walk away from the fake drama and the dependence on the systems that keep terrorizing their own customers, employees, and citizens. Let them have their world. We have the technology to not need it.
Those who choose to stay, let them suffer what comes from such authoritarian systems. Those who wish to leave but cannot, as we sustainbly flourish ourselves we seek to rescue as many who are willing, but not able, as we can.
If you’ve read this far, comment down below if you are ready to sustainably flourish, or if you already are and how you are doing that.
