equinox of might, light changing the scope, minds glow low to high
Dear Reader,
Today I had weird thoughts and got carried away with them...
it was related to some abstract values we have created as humans
values that bind us to a certain contract and we born into them
they became a norm of society and you are expected to follow them
even at birth or when you grew up you didn't sign up this contract
still it binds you
weird...as humanity we developed these abstract concepts
to suit our needs and in the end we find ourselves being suited to the needs of these abstract concepts
just like all the good ideas we find, later on somebody came up and abused it to their need
and after all this abuse that good idea doesn't benefit society instead it harms the society...
just think the examples we invented atomic power and later on somebody came up and made a killing machine out of it
and caused global fear that at any moment because of stupidity the planet could go kaboom...
when we discover things unfortunately we don't have the foresight of what it could lead...
we don't have the capacity to comprehend or understand what that discovery could cause generations later...
because our foresight is limited to 5-7 decades, not centuries or thousand years
do you think that people who discovered internal combustion engine could imagine their invention would cause an effect on the planets climate?
or just take the green paints used in the Victorian era
Scheele's Green, its a toxic decoction of copper and arsenic oxides
the chemist who discovered them made a lot of money
and made a fashion of this deadly green paint
however the toxicity of this paint which was used in the wallpapers, dyeing clothes and even candies
caused horrific deaths
so as humans we discover things we fuck up
than we try to find solutions to unfuck which we fucked up earlier
that is unfortunately the mode how we develop and progress
can you imagine what kind of fuck up we will find ourselves in after a couple of decades later
in this context I was thinking about the role of the "money" and "state" as inventions
of human collective mind,
and I was thinking whether one day humanity will find solutions
to unfuck these abstract concepts that they created earlier which started to become corrupt, toxic and very harmful to their own existence?
with the progress in technology I believe these concepts will become obsolete soon...
we already seen many examples of alternatives to the monetary system where
the control of the money is decentralized...
maybe this will also initiate a system that could decentralize governance as well..
we all know all it takes to one group of demagogues to take up control of the governance...
then they can use every kind of division, calamity and fear to reduce your rights....
and your free speech
so that even you see what is going on
you cannot awaken others..
harness of human soul bleak grey full of sorrow
a big ox giving a birth to death one dark horror, low
equinox of might, light changing the scope, minds glow low to high
lousy shackles cracking hellbox broken, fleeing hearts for a great nigh
