The Discussion and Debate Kickoff
Imagine being a newborn baby with no knowledge of what life is like; only that you will (likely) live your entire life on this planet we call Earth. How would you want life to be? What would you create, build, engineer, design, explore, or how would you spend your time? How would you want your mother or father or daughter or son or friend or neighbour or stranger to be spending their time? How would you help them live, if you cared to?
We need to start somewhere. So, why not start with how we currently divide it? Why is it divided the way it is, what's the use of such divisions or more importantly, how do these divisions improve our lives? Can we do better? If not, why not, and if so, what do we envision? What can we envision, especially if we can allow our mind to roam free of its preconceived notions?
Come, join the largest debate to ever take place in our first, global, modern-day Agora!
Our vote today can be our very own voice. It is time we all learn to express ourselves and have a dialogue with others, no matter how uncomfortable. We no longer need to vote for someone to speak on our behalf. We can all speak for ourselves. If we do not feel that this is the case, we all have access to tools that can develop this ability and can support one another to learn enough to have some minimum commonality in sense, reasoning and logic.
The only alternative is to continue fighting under false pretenses, assumptions, misinformation, misguidance, greed and all the other nonsense we continue to accept as a status quo, when there is absolutely no reason to do so. If, we consider ourselves civilized. If, we consider ourselves intelligent.
No one is more intelligent than the starving or uneducated or simply "different" child or adult on the other side of the planet. We are a product of our environment, the same way "they" are. We all have a similar capacity for intelligence. Let's use this capacity to rewrite how the world works. Nothing is stopping us, except ourselves - and our misguided beliefs, fed to us through generations of masterful propaganda.
