World War ???

 So I'm thinking about the current state of affairs.. and how my therapist said that I'm a cynic because I'm a Gen X-er... I don't buy that.. I'm not discounting my questionable mental state, but I firmly believe now that I'm on the proverbial other side of the mental coin... I've got my depression more or less under control.. I'm not under any delusion that I am in 100% control.. If anything I know that the chaos that is life and evolution will say otherwise.

This has me thinking a lot about what I see as a dystopian present.. I've touched on my rough idea of a timeline on how we got to here already. This current existence on planet Earth in this reality that we know and experience is built on chaos or what we could perceive as a type of chaos. I'm wanting to use the word but there is nuance to it so leave it that for now.

As evolution is best suited to those who are most adaptable as it is currently understood today. The earlier concept of survival of the fittest is still accurate but it does require a bit of knowledge and understanding of the word "fittest" aka nuance. The word was specific to a time and place in Earth's history that doesn't quite hold up to the same meaning, colloquial understanding as if you asked someone today what they thought it may mean. Capitalism, the Earth's society, and the global powers that are driving us to extinction.

3 main topics are outlined in philosophy (all of phil?) as not being able to be sufficiently answered.

Knowledge and how it should be utilized.

Governence

Personal Conduct

All of these are answered in my ignorant opinion of putting humanity first... in the sense that we are one people, on one planet, with well being for all. All who are able will work according to their needs, technology must be thought up in the same manner, the benefit to the species with the least/zero impact to the planet. The technology is futuristic... to be able to scrub a planet clean?!

Though however it would require humanity to not obliterate themselves before getting to a self aware critical thinking level that is not currently present within humanity. The physiology of capitalism, the components that draw out the worst components of humanity, greed, hoarding, gluttony, cruelty, madness and the list could go on. I'm barely able to keep this thought in line so there will be SQUIRREL moments as other thoughts come barging in as well...

Capitalism isn't just an economic system, it is also behavior modifying with more negatives coming from it than positives. In fact I'm almost of the mind to say that if logic and reason are to be fully explored then one could very well find a almost utopia. Though this also seems to be to be a situation where as long as capitalism is the means by which the disbursement of goods/services is what we have it will only continue down a long path of self destruction. As the gap of the oppressors/oppressed grows, income inequality, property, dehumanization of peoples because they are trapped in cultures and customs and countries that are trapped in a unconscious & purposefully built enslavement of the population through capitalism (consumerism by extension), polarization of ideas/customs/traditions based on ignorance that provides the 1% a life of luxury. It's fucking convoluted... by we are anxiety driven creatures of habit chasing dopamine fixes throughout the day.... human biology, behavior, physiology, neuroscience.. all point to what we do as a species and more or less why we do it.

There's more to animal shows that the cute factor... the juxtaposition of our shared experiences and similarities on this planet. Asking the questions about life, especially the difficult ones about what it means to be human. This is where we come up with that adage/quip about asking the opinions of others. Very rarely will there ever be a consensus. So my question is... so is this a sort of miscommunication? Gap in knowledge scenario? Where is the disconnect that makes people make decisions that may not have humanity in the best interest?

Why humanities best interest?

I am not an island unto myself. I can build bridges bigger and better through COOPERATION and UNDERSTANDING. Science based effectively taught education, critical thinking skills, self awareness training, practical experience. These are the key components to building a better humanity. I actually think I have some stuff to highlight on all of these...

Understand that if you strip out the CRITICAL THINKING component it will be missing a key harmony to the melody. In fact this is the base melody, with it intentionally being open to be built upon unless there is something that contradicts the base melody in any way... (99.99% - no absolutes in thought)

Effective science based education...

There needs to be a fundamental shift in how we approach the building of our society going forward, we need to have a punctuated equilibrium moment in the collective understanding of critical thinking skills and self awareness. Until humanity meets this criteria we will stay the course in the capitalistic society. There's programming there that humanity has to try and overcome but that possibility of that is well outside my mathematical knowledge. Education needs to be communal experienced based, relative to the whole, regionally, and specifically. Everyone has a general specific baseline course, that includes a regional baseline course, followed by a detailed course for the whole.

The baseline courses are set up the regional logistics/admin/infrastructural/reference based understanding. This is built specifically so that anyone who would transfer would be able to integrate in a more smooth manner. The transition aspects is the on the job training to the regional specifics, all the above mentioned would be general knowledge and the individual would only need to orientate themselves to the specifics. 

The communal aspects means that there are multiple families engaged with with kids from birth till age 8, doing familial education studies, general self awareness studies, critical thinking studies, science based education that has personal experience included. Math is applied in practical applications age appropriate.  These communal education centers are full cycle focused. 

Full Cycle Focused - Full cycle is the concept of all the experiences a person goes through in the year as an individual, but also taking into account seasonal time, how people have cyclical physiological events, and the commonalities that people have during these cycles (0-2, terrible two's, toddler to preschool, et al.) and not just the changes that happen to us over time but how our experiences shape us. How one event can push us in a direction for years or decades or a lifetime. 

We are an anxious species... anxiety drives us.. which is fear.. which steams from uncertainty and doubt about our day to day situations and future... we are dopamine chasers...

critical thinking and self awareness are not self taught by most.. in fact I'd say there is a smaller percentage of self aware people from what I keep reading. There are key critical studies that the general public is absolutely clueless about and if they knew theses skills they would see the charade that our society is.. or so I can hope.. see an optimistic outlook.

I have more and I can probably keep going on this but I'm going to take a bit of a break here in a bit..

so the WW? title... with the lack of self awareness and fear of a polis having actual knowledge or their reality the current boom bust capitalistic society is going to get worse... why do i say this...

Well i see the reality that we live in a spectrum.. abstractly that is, everything else can be governed by physics. Though however how the fuck you govern that.. let alone how is an abstract concept allowed? Again a bit high.. but I digress.. fuck I'm hungry again..

The spectrum... dichotomies.. either or... this or that.. yes or no.. black or white...

Everything that is based on thought that pertains to life in how we conduct ourselves and the knowledge in how we comprehend this world. All that is our reality and what we perceive.

Take property... the haves and have not's... freedom.. slavery.. equality.. peace.. harmony.. love.. joy.. happiness..

These concepts.. and the entirety of human thought, aside from mathematical proofs and the such I'm assuming... which is weird considering..

so everyone has an opinion to a degree based on two polar opposites of a topic. So something either is or is not, and people argue over to what degree of the spectrum of the topic.. 

 

primarily what it means to be human is what I see in the news everyday. Everyday I see country after country say these people human but not these people.

Why... because the all mighty dollar says there is not a ROI on the lower rungs aside from it's a write off so keep it on the books. Our pursuit of the all  mighty dollar is what is driving us over a cliff. And until education/critical thinking/ self awareness/experienced based as stated above... we'll continue down this hell hole cycle of boom and bust.. each time it gets worst.. but when your collective society doesn't have a fucking clue what ad hominem means. There's a biiiiiiiiiiiig hurdle to get over and I don't see it happening anytime soon.

Additionally the dystopian thing was here, it beat out egalitarian a long time ago. Colonialism happened, feeding the larval stage of capitalism, til you had the colonies established and trade routes connecting the globe. Industrialism brought forth a juvenile, and it grew and grew with each World War... The next WW will push us into a full stop fantasied dystopian future.

These people wrote these books because they could even see the changes in society and what was happening, but who the fuck would believe anyone who writes a book that says we are all burning and you fuckers are the cause. It's a cycle.. and that's what I see the universe working in.. they are all around us.. the day.. the night.. the seasons.. the years.. birth.. death.. and everything in between needs a bit of balance .. you need the tools.. the critical thinking tools.. the education.. the self awareness.. the experience...

But we will fight and fight.. all we are doing is kicking the can down the road till we reach maximum overload.. duh.. we aren't building together we are building our own individual stock piles.. we are building apart.. we are not a cohesive people.. and anything we build we be torn down by a future generation.. there is only so much space but we don't use it properly.. we have plenty but we spoil and burn and pollute where we grow our food and don't even get me started on the pollution of the Earth..

As long as countries exist as long as distinctions of humans exist we will never be one people... Do I have to be Japanese to want to enjoy and carry on a beneficial Japanese tradition. Not all traditions are beneficial, we tend to get emotionally attached to traditions and this is how polarization can be birthed... a new cultural topic is birthed and you have fans and detractors.. some things are of different topics.. religion included...
