Capitalism and "fiat-based-currencies" are reaching its end. we're leaning towards techno-feudalism in a very dystopic version of the series "black mirror".
And revolutions? sure the idea sounds charming, inspiring, romantic. But yknow, behind every revolution there are always "groups" profitting from it.
when we realize capitalism is slavery and so is the antagonist. we've fallen into the trap
(Can you imagine yourself in a flawed interpretation of "equality"? that means, if someone here is exceptionally good with computers, but doesn't have the social skills, aptitude at communication, while there's someone who's great at writing, some play piano some play guitar... others are born deaf... an "egalitarian view, would level us to what? To what "standard" should we be treated as "equals"?
e;g you know how to program in 7 different languages , you either are with the state, or are an abomination to society's balance, "no one should be better than the other" this happened a lot during the 20s (i mean the 1920s;; but it seens we're having a flashback)
Equals amongst ourselves. no one would be allowed to "be in a position that strays from such pattern" what pattern? you're right , there's none. except the one imposed by "the powers that be" - a paradox. for, "what exceptional characteristics make a leader? the "people"?
Ever wonder why communist regimes are strictly atheist? if mankind can't be/achieve what conceptually is believed to be "godly or divine, let alone above than human"... than there shouldn't be any god. it would be unequal" - (as a matter of fact i do think an unaware selfish demiurge who cares not whether people submit to, worship, pray, commit sacrifices to, and fills the unexplainable gaps of existance its not the happiest perception - BUT KEPT society in check
Another thing that kept society in check is the totalitarian oppresion imposed (by the powers who be) there were so much paranoia that even state officials were eager to accuse each other to keep away from "conspiracionists" willing to do the same - Its like neighbor ratting out on neighbor wanting some kind of benefit or at least to be spared from suspicions
Its the same thing since some individuals in mankind started to think "they're illuminated" or have a special role. Romans used "bread and circus" to keep their people in check, and military might to subjulgate or intimidate others.
This goes back to the bronze ages (when the assyrians started inscribing on tablets, developing correspondence seals, even translating already ancient summerian tablets (there are 3 and a half today i think)
Society is failed experiment. The Revolution was/is an experiment, now its happening on this hemisphere.. at some point it would happen.
Unfortunately looks like we are set on a collision course with each other. The idea of "going through schooling, choosing a career, get married having kids blahblahblah" then the variations: "Find shortcuts, amass a large amount of wealth, and have an empty life, then maybe get bored and turn philantropic... "buy the competition" - capitalism consumes itself
when humans lived in constant danger of being eaten by animals, killed or enslaved by other hostile humans, having to hunt and etc i don't think there was "a concept on happiness".. only sufficed needs. At some point, someone "illuminated" probably figured it'd be better to INFLUENCE others into chasing rainbows (happiness, your dream job, idealistic relationships) while convincing that "things must be done in order to maintain the whole thing afloat, now we get into the (un)interesting point : Usury.
Up to this day many islamic countries ban usury * what banks do lend money at an interest rate. so we are born "indebted to a fabricated system that keeps us "working" for "illuminated people". while chasing dreams paying taxes and that is great for those who exert influence, it keeps us busy, rather than expecting the right moment to backstab and seize "such position" so powerful as vulnerable.
So, from time to time, "revolution" similar to the jewish/christian deluge (came and swept away all the "debauchery bigotry, abuse and excess caused by ourselves, to tip the scales of the balance) This cycle has been going on for some thousands of years what is left if not idealistic subjective concepts? It is only natural someone sober decides all this non-sense is not mandatory. and gets on the spacebus to another plan hoping for something better, cause we weren't made for this.
