I’m very scared, it feels like the world is about to fall apart. I will also remember a passage that I heard, and which does not seem to be a joke: you will own nothing, and will be happy! And it seems that this is gradually becoming a reality.
What scares you?
“There was such a potential for all of us to live brilliant, flourishing, fulfilling lives.”
No there wasn’t. That’s just part of the illusion they sell you. The entire thing is just a shakey extension into the sky built upon a foundation it continues to havest from to give the impression of growth. It was only great for a few of us and it could never last.
I do agree with your sentiment and feel like if humans weren’t the way we are we could still build a global paradise.
But that’s not the way humans operate.
