Humanity is not going to make it. We could if we wanted to . . . buuuuttt . . . we’re not willing to lift our butts long enough to pull it off. Unrestrained greed, self-interest, & little that resembles logic are the main factors driving human animosity towards others, whether they be one’s brother, neighbor, or distant international foe. Putting the emphasis on our differences rather than on our commonalities & mutual needs is a primary driver for sending us over the edge into the chaotic void we are witnessing.

The stupendous rate of technological advances since the Middle Ages, especially in the past century, has certainly brought humanity closer together, but in so doing without reducing our gargantuan numbers & increasing complex global problems, it has made it possible, & probably inevitable, that someone somewhere will eventually flip so far out that his extent of power will take us all down with him. Putin, Trump, or any one of numerous other megalomaniacs armed with nukes or other critical power, such as burning down the Amazon, seem to be itching to do so.

I’ve been growing increasingly hopeless since Reagan undid what progress had been made in the U$$$$$ over the preceding decades in race relations, dealing with injustices & social & economic inequity, keeping the economy healthy & vibrant, & satisfying workers’ needs & safety requirements. Cowboy Reagan called Russia the “Evil Empire” but neglected to consider that he headed the Other Evil Empire which, in his ignorant hands, began to quickly dissolve. He fanned corporate greed for wealth & power with a poor understanding of “freedom”. I say “Russia”, although officially it was “The Soviet Union”, but that was just a euphemism to mask its oppressive occupation of Eastern Europe & Central Asia. The 3rd Evil Empire, China, was just hatching since Nixon had kicked in the door.

Racism in the U$, kicked back into gear by Reagan, was unleashed by Trump & is so out of control that much of the coming chaos…
