The people in power were shown a long time ago that it's the system that doesn't work, that it's due for a collapse and it will wreck the planet in so doing. They were given a choice, that the only way to avoid this was to accept radical changes in how our society works, adopt a sustainable, resource-based economy where everyone shared equally in that wealth. But what they didn't like about this option is that there would be no room for the rich and powerful, because money would be useless and politics would become obsolete. They'd have to give up everything they were raised to believe that they were entitled to.</p><p>So what did they do? Some stuck their head in the sand and tried to pretend that it wasn't true. Others, like FDR, tried to find a gentler, less radical solution, but he died before he could fully implement it. But then there were others, who realized that this was a shrinking/sinking hill and they wanted to make sure that sure that they were on top of it. So they doubled down on it. At first they tried to do this quietly, using propaganda and suffocating education to make it easier to do in the long run. Now, we're seeing the plan go full steam ahead. Why now I'm not sure, I can only speculate. But it does mean that we have less time than ever to choose a different path, that one we had so long ago, because the longer we wait the more costly it will be, and the less resources we'll have to pull it off. So there will come a point when we won't have the resources to make this choice anymore, and it'll be disaster for the entire human race, and the rest of the planet too.</p><p><a href="https://autistics.life/tags/technocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>technocracy</span></a> <a href="https://autistics.life/tags/technate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>technate</span></a></p>
