I wonder if what we're seeing and experiencing in the world is the end point of the hero story. Like, where its played out over and over to the point where we have to come up with (or embrace) the idea of the network, the community. The group rather than the individual.
@lilyunsub I hope that people learn faster before we hit the tipping point.
the realist in me has severe doubts in our ability to do that unfortunately .
@JGNWYRK society changes when its forced to, thats kind of the point we are at tho ❤️
@lilyunsub that implies intelligence. I'm not convinced that our current slate of world leaders could find their way out of a wet paper bag if you gave them a map, and a nudge in the correct direction.
@lilyunsub its the cult of greed and Me.
fair point. I need to convince my depression of that now. 🙄
@JGNWYRK eventually people will realise that doing whats best for the group IS the best thing for the individual.
@JGNWYRK but that also leans in to the society that believes in leaders, the hero story. Rather than a collective, a community. Cos they can't/won't fix anything, broken systems got us here in the first place. The cult of the individual. Reinforced by isolation.
