'I was thinking of translating ted.captionhub.com/projects/d96777af2d talk by Clover Hogan . (Is she Paul's relative?:)
So she says all the leaders took on the responsibility and became leaders. Hm I think she speaks about leaders from 1000 yrs ago. So Clover Hogan asks what story is in the way of our taking on the responsibility. Find it and challenge. Reimagine your hobby and put its new iteration into service of promotion against climate change. If you are overwhelmed with the interconnectedness of the crises, visualise, what it would look like if you focus on a single problem [from all the fucked up environmental complex]. Imagine healing lobotomy to be able to focus on just one tiny facet disregarding the heavy global. You will became a soldier technologist same as the ones who caused this shite, but on the good side. Now trying something else. Hmmm I ponder the borders and states and ownership.. all this is connected to ambition-competition circle which is powered by comparison. Ambition under competition is focused. Not sensitive not kind. It begets jealousy and walls. The blind focus is in the core of the process of modern power, it is a norm of our technological civilisation, fertilised by gods' blessings to be fruitful, spread and populate all the corners. There is almost no state that is not build on this ambition. A habit-pattern that all men breathe like fish breathe water. It leads to exploitation (smearing environment with externalities and little regard). China buys mines and woods pretending local can survive. Bitcoin rises and the ambitious revere and follow. I reckon that the majority of modern leaders took up the challenge of having silver spoon. Tough stuff. Nepotism is a norm, it is a tradition, an instinct of liking fluffy puppy, not a lizard. In most of societies there is no shame nor guilt connected to nepotism: only if gone wrong like when the nephew refuses the post or embezzles too much... Today's society is in its global form too sick [GDP growth religion], too sinful, too consuming, addicted to signaling in media. Veneration of grabbing, competition and the now. TED = Plague trying to uproot itself just to postpone the doom and exploit the future even more thoroughly. The leaders we have are the mirror of the addicted majority [in democracy or not] - locust. 'Eat Now more TV now. More locust now. Locust are holy esp in market support mode. Can there be an ambition for a] fighting the populating or b] having the clairvoyant sensitivity open? Who would like to fight population must hurry up before the droughts and viruses take all the credit. Who would struggle to reach the 3rd eye may not probably go far either. Despair or denial? I ll flip a coin. The coin says escape, ship away to other worlds... denial then... perhaps.
