RE: The Collapse Of A Civilisation With Such Promise. Disconnection And Division All In The Name Of Equality. Maybe There's A Better Way, Huh? PART TWO An Inconvenient Conclusion.
I couldn't disagree with a word you've said. Yes, we should leave aside all the 'ists' and 'isms' and agree that all lives matter, but I think we're further from there than we've ever been. As you mentioned, all civilisations eventually destroy themselves. Everything is a cycle.
A Christian friend of mine believes we are living in the end times. While I'm not a person of faith I have to agree that we are witnessing increasing social and political breakdown, while the financial system is tottering on the brink.
In addition to the debauched decadence and degradation of acceptable societal norms, we have a political system so polarised that violence against your opponent has become an almost acceptable form of debate. Then you have the repo crisis threatening to bring the entire financial system toppling down.
Add to that this Corona Virus thing which is likely to send economies into freefall, closing supply chains and perhaps allowing TPTB to impose repressive legislation in the name of public safety. We live in interesting times indeed.
Thank YOU so very much for this I was delighted to receive your thoughts on this piece. As I'm sure you remember I often crave genuine engagement and enjoy providing it to others when the chance arrives and time allows.
I do wish we wouldn't 'burn it all down' quite so fast as I would relish the opportunity to witness just how life could be if the many took on the mindset of the few and lived the way I am certain we were meant to.
You are right of-course the global financial house of cards has been swaying in the wind for quite some time and I suspect (as you mentioned) the corona-virus may just increase that wind to gale force in it's intensity and ferocity, what then of man's greed for currency?
HAHA Yes indeed, as if they ever needed an opportunity to suppress liberty any further, but when they do have what they see as justifiable means to do so, how they delight in such Orwellian chicanery!
Thank YOU so much for taking the time to share your insights and opinions on the "interesting times" in which we find ourselves. Take great care of you and yours from me and mine, have a fabulous Sunday and an even better week to follow. 🙂
