Ideology

NO MORE F*CKING EXCUSES: the age of planetary intelligence

I haven’t posted here for a while as I’m busy with my doctoral studies (writing, reading, composing, practice-based research) and other music and sonic art projects. More info on these in the coming new year.

But a couple of unfiltered thoughts, based on the recent developments in the world and communications I’ve received.

We live on an incredibly intelligent planet. Life on Earth is a cosmic wonder in scientific, artistic and simply existential and evolutionary sense. There is no need for any artificial, human-invented ideologies: nationalism, religions, beliefs, left-right politics, capitalism, etc.

SO WHY THEN ALL THIS IMBECILITY IN POLITICS, ECONOMICS, SOCIAL AND CULTURAL CONSTRUCTIONS ???

There is so much intelligence on this planet. In sciences, arts, humanities, communities, in the actual living planet and its rich diversity of life. We live amid unprecedented planetary-level creativity, potential and intelligence. This is a rare planet of innovation, care, empathy, cooperation and collaboration, creativity, experimentation, discovery, harmonius disagreement, joy, wonder, freedom, love, deeply meaningful existence – conscious intelligence.

Yet culturallly, politically and socially, we lack centuries (if not millenia) behind! We destroy the planet for the sake of some badly outdated, man-made economic system designed to serve the greed of a few men instead of the well-being of all; we persecute and oppress people based on some badly outdated, man-made religious systems; we argue about some badly outdated, man-made left-right politics; we entertain ourselves to death with some throwaway consumer waste-culture; we waste the incredible potential and intelligence of all life (human and more-than-human agencies) on some badly outdated, arbitrary societal designs.

IT IS TIME FOR THIS PLANET TO FUCKIN’ WAKE AND GROW UP.

Enough of nationalism, beliefs, tribalism, hate, racism, genocide (hey Israel!!), oppression, persecution, waste, extraction, ecocide, destruction, greed, profits, narcissism, borders, walls, divisions, consumerism…this fucking incredible fucking imbecility polluting this incredibly beautiful, rich, intelligent, unique wonder that is the planet Earth.

It is high time that our political, economic, cultural and societal thinking elevates itself to the level of intelligence that the rest of the world – science, arts, the non-human life – already enjoys. We are planetary species with abundant planetary intelligence – NO MORE FUCKING EXCUSES.

Palestinian Genocide (by Israel)

One of the most horrendous atrocities of our time is the continuing occupation of Gaza and the inhuman treatment of its citizens by Israel.

Israel is operating not as a democracy or a civilized nation but as a criminal, apartheid terror regime, and its government should be prosecuted for its genocide of Palestinians.

These are not any extreme words and views, but a common human sense; sensible reaction to Israel’s actions.

For there really is no sensible nor factual arguments for Israel’s actions, only those of subjective extremist beliefs based on an ideology.

To justify the occupation and illegal settlements, the imprisoning and killing of innocent civilians including children and women, and so forth and so forth, by Palestinians having shot rockets, exploded bombs, throwing stones and demonstrating peacefully…well how on earth do you expect people under oppression, illegal imprisonment, slow genocide, and with their land stolen etc. etc. react? Should they just politely and silently accept their unnecessary situation, without resistance? How would YOU react if your land was stolen from you and you were separated from your family and friends, and sent into a concentration camp with no freedom nor future? Wouldn’t you object?

To claim an ownership to a “homeland” is one of most ridiculous and juvenile things one can ever hear. [oh dear humanity, will you please grow up] There is no such a thing as ‘homeland’ or ‘ownership’ – these are all just man-made inventions, forms of ideological extremism. Life is an accidental emergence in this particular universe, and we are all made of specks of dust scattered around this universe, living on another, slightly larger speck of dust we call Earth. We are all made of the same matter, and we happen to inhabit the same solid rock in this particular solar system. Earth is our home, our shared home. There are no homelands or sacred lands or nations or borders – just a rock planet with billions of species. What matters is how we share this space, not who owns what.

We have the potential – skills, willpower, consciousness – to live as an enlightened, cooperative, sustainable species on this tiny orb filled with the wonder of life. But for some reason we continue to let the juvenile, imbecile, unimportant and totally unnecessary whimsies of some ephemeral ideologies dictate our survival and future potential on this unimaginably gorgeous planet.
