Evolved thinking needed to solve human problems
Militantly begging the authorities to “do something” about the widespread mess the species finds itself in is as ineffective as scapegoating them or happily acquiescing to the blue-sky tokenism they always offer up as “solutions”.
This mutually convenient dance between the governors and the governed has been with us since the beginnings of our so-called sapience and shows no sign of abating anytime soon.
Let us be clear, we will not solve the problems of our world with the same psychology that created them.
An evolved and radical adaptation of our thinking is urgently needed, but highly unlikely…
