Despite much effort to play people off against each other, attempts to cover up good sense with "events-based news management", + infowar of all sorts, the success of this campaign is in its problem-solving attitude to the "past". . . .
" OPENING A TACTFUL DISCUSSION " , as it put it, various tools for thinking about defusing situations were put forward, (examples ranging from the unscapegoating, supporting attitude to Sierra Leones "child soldiers", to the gritty, flawed yet encouraging progress of the N.I. peace process - under an odd series of attacks as it is - perhaps due to its "threat of a good example" factor itself !
Topics for further debate included the "ways of explaining each "side" to the other . . . . then ALSO explaining to them the people that might have played them off against each other, then the people manipulating THEM too . . . .+ the series of clumsy, fallible disasters that all too often masquerade themselves as "finesse", thus preventing the breaking free of "group unthink" that ALL of us need.
The use of a "science-faction" technique, to free up thinking, seemed very helpful. Rewriting the ends of popular books, etc.
"PERHAPS ITS THAT TIME OF THE PLANET" was a different pointer - referencing an imaginary graph of the accelerating effects of corruption on global society over time as tech. progress is added, (. . . . reaching an exponential around about . . . .?!?!) to create a sort of "bottleneck" / crossroads effect , when the aim of all sentience is to "use it or lose it" . . . . since perhaps we mightnt get a chance to "return to go" ( - even if "big bang" theory does posit that time travels both ways! ) - - - - + even if we did, the unneeded pain + distress caused by us refusing to listen to the lessons of history means the same factors might have people racketeering everybody over the precipice again + again +again . . . .
S0.... over to you!
