This has me really thinking at the moment about the current state of affairs.
The absolute shit show that humanity is.
I personally think and feel that humanity is a failed experiment in the course of evolution and is nothing more than a cancerous parasite. Given the fact that the worst of us seems to dominate the current state of humanity since the dawn of humanity. Riddled throughout humanity's minimal time on this planet is nothing but one overwhelming example after another of their failed actions, especially with regards to humanity's numerous attempts to rectify the calamitous actions of humanity, only to be thwarted again by humanity. The Sisyphean concert of life via evolution' chaotic song. Where even those deemed to be stars are but a speck of dust.
I'm aware of my failings and more failures are to be discovered whilst I still breathe. I do believe that mutual cooperation is humanities best path, but that seems nigh impossible given that we have been ruled by the spectrum of the most depraved of humanity. I feel that science and history show this to be true given that the systems in place have always benefited a minority, sacrificing the majority, but theses seems to scream at the forces beyond our control does it not. The forces of nature, of chaos, of evolution, of our primal drives, and most especially of our own ignorance towards these things. I know I have limited skills towards anything of a single purpose. Let alone the minimal experience in the hobbies and passions that do drive me. I know enough to be dangerous vs helpful. I think my latest vehicular maintenance activities scream at that. Seriously I took for granted my abilities and my ego and hubris got the better of me, once again financially and emotionally.
This conflict of reality ever present that drives our anxiety, the escapes we as a species go to to avoid thinking of it at all. One' existence, this existential workout of either letting go or fighting to hold on to the illusions we are presented. All while being blind to what matters and what doesn't. Yet is that not also an illusion, this socially constructed reality of what matters and what doesn't?
Science presents the data, we have to interpret it, we have to give it meaning, but only if we determine what matters and why? You have to understand things that are more than, most likely never have been taught to us, or explained to us in a non bias manner.
Though we all have a bias, it's only through analysis that we determine how it effects us.
This is where we have to have a spectrum way of thinking. How one thing effects another through the totality of reality via the forces of nature that govern us. What is reality? Who are we? What drives/motivates us to do what we do? What is the big picture?
So what does this have to do with SPoF. Humanities greed will be our downfall, humanities cowardice is it's shame. Through ineptitude and inaction we've sold ourselves out to a minority for an illusion. An illusion of power and greed, via audacious ego trips both of the ethereal and historical moments.
