Srsly. So far, we're not doing so good with this healing thing. The part that involves enough of the populace to be sustainable...votable...whatever.
So, how do we fix it? I know; already diaried. But we still haven't fixed it, or gotten even close. So I figure we need to keep talking about it.
What's broken? Who is different? How? How much does that matter?
What are the best questions to ask? How do you talk to people who have really different mindsets?
Where do you start; where do you end? How do you frame it?
We live in a country where large groups of people have very different ideas about what is going on, and what is in their best interests, from each other.
It's not just Democrats vs. teabaggers...it's really much more complicated than that. Down in the general interstate region where I live, there are large Chicano groups who would probably like to become political groups that could run their own lives, with regards to their own best interests.
That's likely just one example.
This sounds like meta, but really it's not. Meta is about us, usually. This is about everybody, everywhere.
How do we effectuate the healing? What part can Kossacks play in it?
I know, I know. Old discussion. But we have to keep having this discussion. If people don't want to have this discussion on my blog post, they will wind up wanting to have it on the blog posts of other bloggers here. Because it is the most important discussion to have.
Sure, you can talk about the environment, and how we need to have fewer humans. Ain't gonna work.
We need to work on the humans, first and foremost. Because we ARE the most highly evolved species on the planet, and it's up to us whether we trash everybody else, or get it together and bring it all back home.
I don't mean to say anyone should not work on preserving any other species (including beneficial bacteria). I would never do that bad work of discouraging anyone from working on preserving any life form.
I'm just sayin...we have to fix us, as fast as we can; and trust ourselves to continue on the help and the healing.
We have to trust our own species.
It's kind of the hardest thing in the world, since we have done so much damage.
But I don't think there is any other way out, or any other moral or ethical thing to do.
We must trust ourselves, love ourselves, and test ourselves. We ARE the dominant species on the planet. Wow! What an amazing accomplishment!
So, we should just roll, peoples. All of you. Trust yourselves, and just roll. Find your new friends. They are there.
