Meanwhile
as some humans advanced, the societies evolved, they got more complex and the
complexities were sought to be synergized with the emerging realities and to reflect
humanitarian concerns. These evolved societies strived to represent the
humanity. Globalization was essentially humanitarian expression to bring
humanity into one frame before it was hijacked by market opportunists to extend
their exploitative and crude frame. Globalized world is now a reality thanks to
technological innovation that has reduced distance and made differences
redundant. In this evolved world the differences that is appreciated is the one
that brings the synergy of uniqueness as human. Democracy was an attempt in
this direction before it was scuttled by entrenched feudal forces and reduced
to joke but still remains attuned to human reality provided individuals evolves
and are able to tap the potential of education and opportunities to work a
better self. European Union was such expression in limited scale, and
considering the history of this region it was a tremendously appreciable
effort. These intentions were also in tune with emerging challenges of
globalized world that is essentially a byproduct of technological
innovations.
The globalized world presents
challenges that needs collaboration at the global level. Climate change,
extinction events, pandemics, terrorism so on needs a globalized response.
Whatever frame that nurtures divisions, segregations and false narrations of
identities will fall by the side when the reality strikes. Vested interests
have been nurturing deviant dehumanizing values to control common people and
extract opportunities from the misery. The rise of xenophobia has much to do
with pushing these opportunistic market values in the garb of globalization
thus alienating common people from their unique attributes, local connections
and contexts. Dehumanized frustrated people are easy fodder for nationalistic
narrations and primal connections. The rise of religious fundamentalism has
much to do with nurturing the anachronism of religions as identity by high end
manipulators under the garb of moral angst with absolutely no skin in the game.
While the common people’s aspiration and insecurities were persistently
undermined. These constructed exaggerations on which some clever people were
settling their redemption has been jolted in recent times by climate related
challenges and increasing desperation among people. These though were sought to
be undermined by working on high end angst binary. Wherein people’s insecurities
where posited as rising threat to minority (which ofcourse was identified and
firmly hinged on vicious religions at the expense of genuine minorities
including divergent ideas). Nationalism was sought to be fought with feudal
references and norms while market incursions within the comfort of hedonist luxury.
Everything was sought to be dealt with control over narration and connection to
deep state. Carbon footprint were ignored and climate change sought to be
sidelined before they no longer could as things had start to become obvious.
Anachronistic nonsenses were packed as benign religions that constantly
degraded humanity, giving confidence to dangerous zombies while persistently
undermining emerging threats. Science was positioned as binary to religion in
this clever conception rather than natural evolution of thinking mind. An
inquisitive logical critical mind could easily see through the juvenilities of religion
that is striving to gain the space of spiritual inquiry within its stultifying dehumanizing
segregatory frame. It was but natural for reality to strike. It strikes through
natural disasters. The intensity and frequency of which have increased in
recent times. But these too were cunningly factored in and juxtaposed as grand wrath of god and were judiciously isolated
from reality (of climate crisis) and placed under religious frame to seek
atonement. Punishment and wrath are constant references in religions meant to
keep the zombies under check. Ego driven religions have special use of huge
natural disasters and calamities, the imagery of deluge and floods, devastating fires so on perversely satisfies the narration
of wrath of god onto common people. Afterall only our god can create such grand disasters. Hence he has to be
omnipotent, in a deft move followers too share this claim of omnipotence over
others as also ego driven insular megalomaniacal insights that put them firmly
over common people. That is why threat by microorganism is baffling to their little
mind, and is such a humbling experience. This cannot be really fit into the grand
nature of things. It is such an embarrassment to megalomaniacal driven
conceptions of religions.
When reality strikes it grabs the
balls to squeeze out the hallucination. Exaggerated self-worth and manipulation
has no space. Nations are lines on the map while religions are nothing more
than sinister virtual games that has no sense of reality. Its strips dictators
to bare and force them to share the information. Corona virus wouldn’t have
spread if China was democratic and valued human rights same is the case with theocratic
megalomaniacs controlling Iran who were in denial mode. USA could have initiated
much better response if it were not for market driven manipulation that seeks
to obfuscate reality and connection of people to their surroundings. Human beings are part of nature that is
sustained by earth’s system that took millions of years to evolve. In geological
terms humans are just blip. We live in wider connection with world in this
fragile space. It is quite apt that it needed only a microorganism, a virus, to
show us our place in grand scheme of things. It is the great de-bullshitting
event of our times. It is humbling.
