New World Orders
[loud, mind-tearing shriek sunders through the night] - how to end the world?
What is the world? What to turn away from, to not be as Lot's wife as it were?
Maybe it wasn't meant to last. Maybe, what Jesus meant already played out - while now, all in all,
the more comprehensive term for "it" is Babylon. I guess ... that's "fair enough".
Is it?
So - to be sure, we would first want to hold sacred ground. I thought a ceremony would be in
place to link them to the ring and thus expand institutionalized authority. But I want to assume
that the clustering and hierarchies that emerge from different circumstances go beyond what can
be easily codified. So, thinking of it, the focus would be on a finite body that can be produced
in small and replicated into higher forms as growth demands it so.
I would however outside of that also believe in Priests electing their own representatives, as it
were - so - not sure what to really go for, but ... there are sparks of ideas ... .
But whatever. So, there's piety. It's - a good place overall. Ultimately it be beyond me to disparage
those who chose piety - but yea, what is it? I mean, maybe it is to do with the "Love God with all
thine Heart" thing.
But so, I don't want to comment on that and want ... to leave it to the winds or how to put it.
But beyond that ... what's there?
I mean - we may think of "the world" like this:
Step 1: We forbid something.
Step 2: We wait for fertile ground to feature that thing.
Step 3: We see problems unfold.
Step 4: We get angry.
And so on.
So one would argue, that the problems emerged because of the thing; And others that they emerged
because of the prohibition. In all that we're free to define and dismiss what either one could
call a problem - so technically we have none because they cancel out in the noise somehow.
Then there's those fucknuggets that say that there is certainly a problem, and use that awareness
to peddle bullshit that leads down the path of conspiracy theories and political extremism.
We may here accuse one another all the way we like. But we may also look for a place of consolidation.
It will ultimately be the duty of the strong to maintain the order within this place - and to assist
the appointed judges in their duties. So, the critical question remains: What is a Judge?
A Judge is a function. In the Oracle Cards of mine it'd be represented by the Pivot per chance. On
the one hand it's up to the strong to decide whom they'll follow, if anyone. There may be some
politics to that - but the final shape of all of it should resemble an alliance. Alliances would
ensure that each entity can manage its own self as an independent unit, maintaining a degree of
flexibility.
It also maintains distance between issues while creating a decentralized focus. Well, this decentralized
focus ultimately does turn into a centralized organ - and it should function like a heart. It like ...
pulls and pushes engagement, creating and relieving public pressures - it becomes an organ of expression
and of reflection. So, as things connect and the public eye can set a stage, those invited to it are then
exposed to its demands also. One demand should be, that individuals speak for themselves. We might even
choose to tribalize into cultural arrangements. Uhm ... what am I ...?
I mean ...
From what suggestions exist, people have to come to a bottom line that links up with the rest. Each
link is important - and so here the bridge between individual units that form in isolation.
If we can extend from there - what is the world?
Tat perhaps, we would bring from the old into the new world?
Well - why not. We shouldn't burn down the past!
That's ... not a way to treat history. We can however ... slowly carry it away, brick by brick, and
decide what goes on which pile.
My vision doesn't really hinge much on the tat of today. But the concept of having personal belongings
is I believe essential to our identity building, character formation and entanglements with society.
In some fictional future the trend could be to minimize that to basically hand-baggage, travelling light
in a virtually borderless society with a rich spread of colonies and biospheres. Clothing could be second
handed - tracking one's route ahead of time, preparing for accommodations and preferences.
An alternate slice would focus on the building of child-friendly collectives. Those would be attractive
for young parents while allowing for some transit of generations and configurations.
And yea. That is a 'naive' picture when assuming a population density measured in skyscrapers. The network
that would in one instance easily stretch a region is here condensed across a couple of floors perhaps.
Sortof. I mean, the more logical measure would be the individual stages the daily routine involves. Add
some amount of friends plus minus associated locations. So, the world is structured differently.
Individuality more easily turns into a part of the noise.
It would thus make sense to start speaking in fractions and potentials. So, how each, or we collectively,
would shape our lives is ... whatever. We'd be looking for our spirituality as we need it - find ways to
share that somehow - and best I can do is to hope that something like this might emerge. Sure sure.
Ultimately all we would need is to know whom to point to, to point to a place and say "here" - while
someone else was asking for [thing]. There is ... let's call it "civilization creep". Growth driven
by replication to meet a need. Without taking decisive actions to mold this creep, it'll turn into
chaos I would assume. It's like a Game Over screen - one that might be inevitable; Such that running for
Mayor is akin to Russian Roulette. And it'll take some kind of common identity to create the space for
... what is it that we're talking about?
I dream of a world in which we find equilibrium, let's call it.
People worry about racial replacement stuff, but ... all it does is fuel national identities that should
be considered a worry of the past. We could point fingers at who's to blame for dropping replacement
rates - and the answer might just be that nature has become tired of its dominance. And who are we to
worry? Aren't there more pressing issues? If we're going to fight over it, who or what is going to remain?
Hmm ... should I? Might I? I think I could - technically. I mean, if people can't come to a peaceful solution,
I suppose I even have to ... uh, so - the concern at hand is my claim to hold Jerusalem and with it the Biblical
Territory of Israel. I will not ask people to leave - as it should be a sanctuary. If violence needs to be
directed, let it be against those that disrespect its sanctity.
If you feel like you have a debt to pay, serve me. Serve the Sanctuary.
And yes - I guess that puts me into a position to also point towards China and say "Shut it!". I mean, I could do
so from anywhere - but as Israel the whole National superiority thing falls back on me. And yea, I'm inherently
mixed - fantasy diaspora - Asian/PoC+Caucasian ... whatever. So, sure. Israel should work fine in that light.
Can I then have a Palace? I mean ... I think I may have need for such a thing. It might also help me, uh, stretch
out and ... recollect myself. Thinking of it ... it starts to look like one of those obsessions that overcome me.
It's like an "Oooh, shiny!" - and yea. Well.
I mean, that'd be my new retirement plan. So far I didn't really have one.
But uhm, I'ma gon' zip it now.
