"Our leaders have abandoned us. We are careering into destruction because the leaders of the world are battling for resources, battling to finish off what’s left. While we, powerless, uninvolved civilians, watch like zombies their killings and their plundering on tv, they ignore the consequences of their actions and inaction. [...] We need to build something new from the bottom up. But what?"

Well said. I am with you up to this point. But it will be difficult for anybody to agree on the next steps ... we need to find a way to organize so that we can make progress without having to agree on everything on the way ... some call it decentralized governance ... but I am not sure anybody really understands what is meant by this or how it could work out in practice.

I understand what is meant by it and built solutions around this. Like a paper and cork board solution that any city can implement on a wall (called the Pangaia World Game). It gamifies social participation and creates its own currency system. That alone was a major achievement: to understand how money is supposed to work. The real issue is who's going to be left after all the fall-out from a failed planetary shift?

Yes it looks worse then bad. Especially with War on Terror US & UK participating in the Palestinian genocide.

But how does your promotion of radical withdrawal of trust differ from strongman Putinism and Trumpism?

If we don’t get on top of things soon as in yesterday, it’s going to be 5°C in 10 years. The permafrost there’s nothing. It contains 400 PPM CO2 in equivalent meathane.

There's no one there, friend. Remember the biggest enemy is always yourself. The plan to fix it all is here, though, from prophecy. Find me.
