The world is being turned into a dystopia of extreme inequality by those determined to blackmail 8 billion humans into destitution. The collusion between power and wealth has new precision tools, an upgraded game plan, and a new vision for an oppressive society none of us will be able to opt out of. So far, … Continue reading Don’t Eat The Rich! Abolish Them For Good
Humans would like to believe that they represent the forefront of evolution, but there are other forms of life on Earth, both natural and artificial, that supersede them. The most terrifying life form on the planet right now is our economic system: a logistical network originally developed by humans to serve humans, but which now … Continue reading Is This Where The Human Evolution Journey Ends?
All power corrupts, brain power being no exception. As it enlarged over millions of years, the human brain eventually became big enough to constitute a formidable weapon of mass destruction. Humans became an existential threat to the planet, now that nothing could stand in their way. The tremendous competitive advantages of our large brain led … Continue reading A Brief History Of The Human Brain: How We Got It All Wrong
Everything humans have achieved to this day was precariously built on the great myth of growth: the belief that this civilisation can continue to dig its own hole without ever falling in. Perpetuating the myth of growth meant keeping citizens hostage to the Ponzi scheme of ecological fraud: by forcibly making us stakeholders to this scheme, we had everything … Continue reading Truth In The Time Of Collapse
The belief that a small group of individuals forming a “government” can be trusted to represent the best interests of its people has been one of the most disastrous leaps of faith our civilisation ever took. Some may argue that as our societies grew, we had no choice but to form administrative superstructures that could … Continue reading Governments: Did We Ever Really Need Them?

Every society we create sooner or later faces the challenge of keeping up with an escalating demand for resources. Although there is an immense drive to acquire more, there is never any strategy to conserve or manage what is already there. Degrowth may be omnipresent in nature, but it has never been accomplished in a human … Continue reading History Will Not Repeat Itself
The war humanity is waging on all other species has already killed much of the ecosystem. The superorganism is dying. Rather than celebrating our shared chemical and genetic lineage, we have been in war with other life forms since the beginning of time. Our track record is one of genocide and extinction, because this is … Continue reading A Civilisation Built on Conflict and Supremacy
People revolt only when they feel sufficiently oppressed to be prepared to risk everything. But this critical threshold will never be reached when society has been collectively bought out by this economic system long ago. We are stakeholders and participants in everything wrong with the world today: exploitation, natural destruction, climate breakdown. This dystopian society … Continue reading The Missed Revolution
As tens of millions of Americans begin to fall below the poverty line, their leader plans to annex Gaza, Canada, Greenland, and Mars. This has all the signs of late-stage Empire tantrums: the economic desperation becomes so immense that the only way for the Empire to continue, and distract its impoverished citizens, is to annex … Continue reading Empire vs. People and Planet
