My thoughts...
My thoughts... as we witness turbulence at the cusp of cataclysmic changes of planetary significance between now and 2030
- What all should we be saying Goodbye to ?
- The world is in an unprecedented flux. Institutions are collapsing, polarities are rising, inter-group hatred is exploding violently, climate change adversities are increasing..Is planning now futile?
- Have we entered a phase of de-globalisation where the national, regional and local introduce centrifugal forces stronger than centripetality of universal multilateralism?
- Commitments must be made, promises kept, injustices fought, the needy helped, family and friends cherished, communities strengthened, traumas healed, and a certain amount of evil tolerated until it becomes possible to confront it, eliminate it, mitigate it…through exercise of countervailing power
- What can be done about the assaults on dignity, privacy and humanity of persons like you and me from the growing surveillance by governments abusing stealthpower, and artificial juridical persons with wealthpower exercising more power than natural persons whose authority, privacy, security and well-being are greatly threatened and already considerably eroded ?
- What truths and facts as we know them until now will be found to be mere myths by 2030? (Quite many of my own personal cherished beliefs have required to be defenestrated in 2026)
- Dinosaurs, the Dodo and many more species went extinct. Cockroaches survived. Ants, termites, have survived. How may we understand swarm intelligence better?
- I seem to have more questions than answers.
