The modern world is divided
"The whole modern world has divided itself into Conservatives and Progressives. The business of Progressives is to go on making mistakes. The business of the Conservatives is to prevent the mistakes from being corrected." G. K. Chesterton, Illustrated London News, April 19, 1924
Yea, I went there.
Though, I prefer Lewis's proposal that liberal and conservative is more or less arbitrary as both sides are being manipulated by certain focal points in such a way that either will believe anything without realizing what is going on, and thus the real power manipulates from both sides, leading towards one end.

But, as it turned out the REAL power behind THAT power, in that instance at last, were demons. What arch_enemy proposed seemed to kinda be the plan, other than they'd first just have people kill each other off, and they were planning to just kill off or enslave the majority of people, regardless of whether they opposed them (in fact, they planned to make everyone not oppose them).

Re: The modern world is divided
the REAL POWER lies in YOU. The government has just learned to manipulate you, but you don't really have to take any of their shit.
That being said, don't go all "fuck society" and shit because you feel like you've been fucked over. That's why you don't get anywhere.
Play by the rules and get rich.

Re: The modern world is divided
Honestly I think we are all equally stupid and shitty and any grand notion of master manipulators or shadow governments is giving humanity way too much credit.

I think you are giving them far too little thought, or maybe you forgot for a minute all the shit they try pull over your eyes and tell you it's wool.

Re: The modern world is divided
I like the division of progressive and conservative, rather than just liberal and conservative. It makes for a stronger statement of halves. I had a thought the other day about conservatives, and how I'm not fundamentally opposed to their ideologies in any way. Not wanting things to change is based on fear, which is (supposed to be) a rational response. I actually have great respects for what conservatives (are supposed to) do, which is (perhaps unknowingly) keep us safe from ideas and ideals that would lead us to ruin - to look at what works and what might change because of new introductions - essentially the critical eye to the blind ambition of progressives.
This is not the way these two sides play out, but I like to think that's how it's supposed to work.

Re: The modern world is divided
Ah you cowerdly motherfuckers. I'm a super progressive(futerist).
It's painfully obvious we need to make robots and science and technology do all our work for us and produce all needed resoucres for the economy while getting rid of the concept of money and dishing out resources equally to the entire society.
Improvemnts will be made through advancements in technology, If theres sort of resource that is lacking or if humanity gets entitled and they all want to live like rich assholes, We make the technology provide our every whim for everyone.
Basically, a transfer from the current situation of enslavement of most of humanity for the whims of a few very powerful humans, to enslavement of epic technology for the whims of all humans.
Any other economic system is broken and corrupt.
