Political Statement
The absence of functioning educational establishments cause an under-educated population to turn to archaic forms of ethno-nationalism.
Ethno-nationalism, along with religious fundamentalism and the unequal distribution of wealth, will cause a collapse of modern society unless we reform our current system. In order to stop this, the thinkers of today must make a coalition against oppression and establish a more honorable, just, and equitable society.
This is the coalition of Futurism.
The future is bright with the assistance of technology; all of what I write might as well be considered science fiction until we innovate.
But in order to innovate, one must think.
Unlike Marxists, I do not believe worth is the root of economic being (yet it certainly gives some a position of privilege that must be shared with the world) but instead that individual intellect is the only thing telling us apart from apes or truly any other animal.
Cogito Ergo Sum-I think, therefore I am--Rene Descartes

What makes human beings worth more than simple material factors is our ability to think,
our ability to solve complex problems,
our ability to both simultaneously love and hate,
and most of all our ability to dream and imagine.


One day once the majority of humans are evolved intellectually enough to understand and accept communism, then its a perfectly fine and dandy system, but until that day we must work with the duct taped together world order that we have, and avoid violent uprising and massive violent conflict at all cost as the nuclear umbrella of modern states would wipe out any and everyone who attempts to stand against the state.

When I died I had written that it was better to be feared than loved, if one couldn't have both--but that was advice for the Prince.

My advice to the republic is to hope and look for the horizon.

“soyez réalistes, demandez l'impossible”--Be realistic, demand the impossible.
