Who wants their government to be led by people who’s assets are hidden, who’s financial transactions are conducted anonymously offshore?

Ordinary people are paying taxes, rich people are not. So this is inequality and this is leading up to popularism.

Today offshore is the way elites and multinational cooprrations conduct affairs, tax evasion is the way business is done.

This kind of cheating reuqires a sophisticated infarstrcuture of higly eucated people who think it’s their right to help others to cheat societies.

There is no experience you have a had that you are not at the absolute center of the world that you experience is in front of you.

Other people’s thoughts and feelings have to be communicated to you, but yours are right there.

That loneliness is not a function of solitude

That sometimes human beings have to just sit in one place and, like, hurt

That there is such a thing as raw, unalloyed, agenda-less kindness

Don’t have enough time to watch the film noir masterpiece BladeRunner 2049 , still curious as to how our future is being shaped, and where it’s headed?

I think these two films together perfectly sum up how people don’t think about changing the world they live in, and how the world they live in treats them.

The rate of technological evolution is increasing exponentially, devices which we couldn’t imagine existing 20 years ago are now a mainstream part of life. Consumer product development is only one area of advancement though, and it’s hardly the cutting edge.

All technological innovations of the past 50 years have been driven primarily by military need, this includes but is not limited to the Internet , Encryption , Drones , Artificial Intelligence , and most obviously Weapons .
