Not everywhere, so that quiet resistance is perceptible from some corners. However, in view of solidified roped parties, entrenched structures and rusted connections, a separation is unlikely. The audible cries are rather the result of the oppressive narrowness where people step on each other's feet, not from insight before necessary changes or even from the idea of being able to step out on separate paths and adopt other forms of behaviour.

This would be the salvation of all of us and the last free selectable emergency exit. Probably we will fail again because we lack all the necessary ingredients for a new world order: Vision, bravery, courage, will and especially inner greatness. We would first have to admit mistakes, which is almost impossible. Then previous entanglements would have to be cut off, which in view of the expected annoyances would soften possible intentions in advance. To reproach the old companions with short-sightedness would also be counterproductive and hinder any plans.

However, the real reason for all hesitation is deeply rooted in us: fear. Conversely, we lack his counterpart to take the decisive first step: courage.

What still sounds feasible and motivating for the individual – no courage without fear – is often more difficult at a national level. Even the extended version – what does my courage enable me to do, even though I am afraid – can hardly be realized in view of the large number of people in charge. There is the same bias in everyone, which then adds up accordingly. What remains unnoticed is our inner herd instinct, which leads us to expect a chain reaction of like-minded people, whereby initial uncertainties should quickly lose their terror.

If our history of development has been driven and marked by pioneering spirit, we do not seem to have lost it, but we have reduced it to improving comfort and convenience. In our eyes, we have made the world our own and set ourselves up, so why should we change the conditions in a big way and risk possible disadvantages? We are sufficiently busy with everyday skirmishes and shortcomings. We need most of our energy anyway to fight with elbows for attention and our place.

A new association of willing ones would not be a small village club, but would have an effective punch from the beginning. Crawling constantly in front of the USA is now completely incomprehensible. With swollen eyes from fat and disintegrated muscles in his head, the self-declared world leader no longer recognizes that a deadly gullet is opening up in front of him. Why the much larger Europe is faithfully and stupidly dallying behind him is not only questionable, but has long since become unintelligible to the inhabitants. If populations of other European countries had as much guts in their asses as the French, tangible changes would probably be possible. Europe would possibly develop the courage to lead a new alliance.

There are many things the world does not need. Least of all pathologically psychopathic warmongers whose arrogance is surpassed by stupidity.

There is little the world needs to make the world a better place. First, an impulse to open the door to new ways. Our ancestors turned their fear into courage. We haven't lost that ability, just buried it under fries and chip bags.

Simply dismissing it as power horniness no longer does justice to developments. Rather, progress and behavior drift apart. The more high-tech the former becomes, the more primitive the latter becomes. Instincts long believed to have been overcome are pushing their way from the depths of our evolution to the front row. Values and ways of dealing that have been painstakingly built up and have been described as human in their origin are mercilessly chased away.

Especially now, when calls for more equality and care are growing louder, they seem to be inciting fears of loss. If loss and fear can be emotionally challenging on their own, their connection quickly becomes unbearable. Countermeasures are activated like reflexes. Every possession must be defended with all means. Lawfulness is not at issue here because, according to our claim, everything always belongs to us for our well-being. Those who threaten this will be fought. Even if it is the neighbor with whom we have always got along well. There are no friends in the battle for the benefices, only enemies.

Worldwide falling barriers displease the mighty more and more. First they force globalization on us and now they are surprised to find out what hard bandages are in use here and that their own players are increasingly falling behind. In the war of profits no prisoners are made, but destroyed, which places itself in the way. It is easy to see how the forces are distributed around the world. But instead of looking for progressive solutions, lower instincts are given in and the claws are extended.

Only those who position themselves as opponents are immune to this activation. Whoever stands up for an open and peaceful world is an outright enemy. Who thinks beyond that of future generations and acts accordingly prudently, thus betraying his own taking of advantage, must reckon with serious complications for his life. The more cosmopolitan people become noticeable, the more nervous the other side becomes and strengthens its defensive measures. While the former take care of everyone, the latter only takes care of themselves.

How easy it is to ignite supposedly comfortable structures is shown by the already existing majority. Government princes no longer have to formulate complicated demands, but only press the right buttons. Discrimination, control, suppression and demarcation are a simple language that everyone understands. Of course, this always means only one point of view: from one's own point of view – everything for me, nothing for the others. This also applies to each other, which is why people are divided everywhere.

Globally, a dangerous course has been embarked upon, the effects of which are pushing back unmistakable signs. Fascinated, we hunt technical developments from climax to climax without understanding the underlying danger. Arrogant, we cling to the dogma of being able to control everything. We continue to let ourselves be dictated by the maxim that the economy must grow indefinitely without questioning this. Obvious untruths are believed when they support the threats previously put forward.

Dictatorship and slavery are on the rise, even if it is carefully avoided calling them so. It is only a matter of standing on the supposedly right side.

The political powers are stirring up this fight for distribution, only to be careful not to fall under their own wheels. So that they do not sink, they sharpen their knives. Because, of course, they do not dirty their own hands, they stir up their people and spread destructive hatred over them. Form and dosage do not matter, the main thing is that it has an effect.

The success of this development lies in the success of its cause: peaceful prosperity eats its children. Man is overwhelmed with the complexity he has created himself and yearns for simplified structures. Instigated by himself, he becomes a victim of his own holiness. However, the interrelations exceed all those who are able to think beyond their heads. Violence is then based on the frustration of not being able to deal with one's own inner conflicts.

The simple fact that we are all equal and that our basic needs are identical makes totalitarian desires for domination impossible and is therefore successfully expelled.

The greatest danger is hidden in the momentum that is absorbed and nourished by the frictions that are generated. Stopping this is becoming increasingly hopeless. Constructive counter-movements, such as #FridaysForFuture, unintentionally deepen the trenches. The necessary changes exceed the imagination of rooted and hardened ideologies. Implementation would mean hell, which is therefore prevented by all means. If one were to deny one's own small-mindedness, one would already lack the cognitive faculty to do so.

What is difficult to discern in the processes taking place are the weak points with the most comprehensive power: politicians inside. Through mud battles against their peers, they have eliminated any inhibitions and established a rude way of dealing with each other. This is precisely why populist screamers are most heard. In an absurd way, it nourishes a paradox: the call for a strong leadership hand.

Solutions would be obvious if one thought about the inherent reason instead of having it stolen. However, killing swings up to the ultimate satisfaction, to the maximum stimulus, as the peak of power, with which our peculiarity is nothing more than a lie, a self-deception: humanity.

Probably evolution will judge it. That it is accompanied by painful teachings may belong together inextricably.

We can be different. Unfortunately, we have not yet reached maturity for this.

Mistakes are allowed, even desirable for learning effects, as long as no irreparable damage is caused. Trying over studying, how the wisdom of last conclusion is trumped into us early on. In practice, weaknesses are revealed that can lead to successful developments.

However, a reinterpretation into facts bursting with errors is not simply a lie, but intended manipulation. Such psychological methods are used by those who want to trigger and stir up the power of negative emotions in unstable characters. Only for the satisfaction of selfish motives. To create discord in order to refresh oneself from the hatred aroused and to abuse its destructive powers for an end in itself. Like a too slow sprinter who gives his opponents legs to win.

The opinion of autocratic leaders about their stupid sheep was proven by the appearance of the Austrian Vice Chancellor. Not more than slaughter cattle for feeding themselves. But those who expected a loud outcry of indignation remained speechless about its absence. Affectionate bearing comes into its own with lower instincts and is cheered submissively.

Citizens are familiar with broken promises from politics. It is frightening that the frustration is now enough to let untruths numb the senses. If common sense is abandoned, regret ends where it becomes an escalating danger for the community. This ulcer must be dealt with decisively in order to contain its spread.

And because we cannot (want to) solve the self-created, smouldering conflicts in ourselves – for this we would have to acknowledge them – do we hold others responsible for them?

How pathetic. How pathetic. How narrow-minded.

Pant precious stupidly after the money, you don't understand range of humankind anyway.

Therefore, we ignore the vulnerability of the system and, above all, the effects that a disruption of the processes would cause. As if one would cover one's eyes in a crowd of people and believe that the others no longer see one because one no longer sees them oneself. Idiot? Of course, but that's what we do. Every day and with an increasing tendency.

If you put on a wetsuit, you can move well. If you get into a second one, you can certainly do that as well. On three and four? I don't know ... Five and six? I've never worn one before, so I can't judge it, but I suspect a very limited freedom of movement. We practice similar things with technical progress. We are only too happy to let ourselves be taken in by it, it promises a great deal of comfort. We refuse, however, to make any attempt to become aware of the connections between them. Our defence mechanisms are not directed against the dangerous, negative consequences they are actually there to protect, but against the warnings themselves.

It is a logical consequence, which is ignored again and thus activates a devastating spiral, that all basic programming in our heads gets mixed up and turns into fears, depressions and other illnesses, which are caused by irritations, such as cancer. But that's just a side note.

Without question, our achievements are remarkable and extremely pleasant. Which, of course, is a prerequisite for being taken completely out of hand. Corporations have long since taken over the dominion and we have surrendered to their machinations.

But it is not the technology or abstruseness of declaring data the most valuable commodity that should cause concern, but the associated fragility of the entire system. In neoliberal turbo-mode, we are maneuvering ourselves unchecked into a dead end, which we do not want to admit in the usual manner. All over the world fuses are already firing and when it comes to the first explosion is hardly interesting any more, but rather where. Because depending upon origin different effects result. Whereby it doesn't matter in the end, because the bottom line is a disaster in any case.

So far, we humans have let technology work for us. We have used machines to support us. Although we still insist that this is the case, we are lying into our own pockets. We have entered the bondage of the technology we have created. Stoically, we hold on to the misbelief of ruling and controlling everything, especially what we have created.

The network of built up dependencies is highly sensitive and accordingly vulnerable. Thoughtlessly we readily feed a construct that has long outgrown our hair.

A wrong click, a failing server, a disturbed node, a bank in turbulence, a branch falls, an economy behind, a war in tow, an end.

It's not about condemning and banishing technology, but about adjusting circumstances. The necessary insights and changes, however, are utopian hopes. Such an extensive reorientation of spiritual attitudes will not happen by reasonable means. It is hopeless to assume that we could muster so much decency. So in principle we would already be able to do that, but the spirits we called ...

We've given up humanity, even if no one admits it. Whether we have lost it or it has been stolen from us is irrelevant at first. Only through this loss are the current developments possible. The lack of courage, or at least the lack of courage, prevents us from perceiving reality. This is the only reason why we do not perceive the pretended deception as such, but submit ourselves to the homely whispering. The shaky structure itself promotes its instability. If self-preservation takes the lead instead of collective forces, the system collapses.

Social is no gimmick, no bonus, no icing on the cake, no extra and certainly not a punishment. It is the cause, the basis, the basic prerequisite for life. Why we let ourselves be wrapped up in fraudulent machinations, when we supposedly are so intelligent, should seriously burden us and make us think. Which brings me – once again – to the basic problem.
