@umbrarchist.bsky.social It is rare to hear anyone seriously ask "What is the purpose of the Economy", even though it is vital to all humans & life.
My own alternative might be for it to enable #sustainable #diversityrich #mutualwellbeing based on #openknowledge (as against a fixed ideology).
If one of humanity's biggest challenges is to shift societies more towards #mutualwellbeing thinking (based on #diversityrich #openknowledge, not fixed ideologies), where can one start?
Perhaps by calling for the deeper adoption of the #GoldenRule in #Education, #Politics, #Economics & #Culture?
In my search for ways for us to move towards #diversityrich #mutualwellbeing based on #openknowledge this👇looks very interesting...
Such 'distraction' as mentioned below 👇is one of the manipulative tools of the 'Power-Over-Others' systems we historically and still live within.
To escape such malignant control and minipulation we need to build #diversityrich #mutualwellbeing powered-together thinking and systems....
What does WOKE mean to you?
To seek to:
A) Reposition a social victim group as a victor?
B) Challenge accepted social power heirarchies?
C) Encourage the awakening of broader and deeper social understanding and seek to advance #diversityrich #mutualwellbeing?
D) Something else?
How long before humans realise we have been playing with our #consciousness like adolescents, not realising the potential it gives us for conscious evolution to a new paradigm enabling quality of life for everyone through pursuing #diversityrich #openknowledge #mutualwellbeing?
#DeepQuestioning offers us the potential of comprehending the many flaws within current governance systems and reshaping them to take us towards enabling everyone to live a good quality of life through seeking #mutualwellbeing based on #DiversityRich #openknowledge

Just to mention that the choice doesn't have to be 'Capitalism OR Communism'
The choice can be 'stay shackled to out of date damaging & divisive ideologies' OR 'Seek #DiversityRich #MutualWellbeing based on #OpenKnowledge'

Which is likely to better:
Ethics & Values based on relatively fixed knowledge/epistemology derived from limited perspectives, experience & evaluation,
OR
Ethics and Values based on #openknowledge derived from #diversityrich perspectives, experience & evaluation?
#Ethics #Values
Is it more ethical to develop understandings and make decisions by drawing on a #diversityrich range of perspectives, thinking-models and values, utilising the concepts of #openknowledge, or to do so by drawing on a narrower (even single) platform of knowledge, thought-models and #values?
#ethics?
Is Debating a poor way of forming an opinion?
Would it be better to consider this question☝️ through a Debate or through a Diversity-Rich, Systems-Thinking, Deliberative Discourse?
#DiversityRich
#OpenKnowledge
#SystemsThinking
#DeliberativeDiscourse
Very concerning that rather than seek to find ways to enable the UN #SustainableDevelopmentGoals to be improved in words & deeds to help enable every nation to move closer towards #sustainable #diversityrich #mutualwellbeing, some country representatives appear to reject & undermine the endeavour
#Politics continues to be infected by the narcissistic & psychopathic thinking you see today that was embedded in the deep past.
Can that change?
Yes, but it needs us to seek out & engage with the many positive visions of humanity based on #diversityrich #mutualwellbeing that are quietly growing.
Will you look away from the dark attractors of shallow & narrow thinking and perceptions of self, which dominate mainstream society?
Will you seek out the light attractors of #OpenKnowledge & #DiversityRich #MutualWellbing to take us towards humanity's more beautiful transcendent potential?
Any political party willing to say this?
We are trapped in systems of #politics [serving power] & #economics [serving money] for which sustainable mutual wellbeing is an afterthought.
We will carefully start to change that with policies to put #diversityrich #sustainable #mutualwellbeing first.
In the search for ways to enable societies to move towards #sustainable #diversityrich #qualityoflifeforall an important consideration is cultural change. So this 👇on cultural evolution looks of interest...
#culturalevolution #culturalchange #politics #education
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultura...
Anything other than #DeepDemocracy is no more than a grade of Autocracy, and while #education systems fail to engender critical systems thinking and put winning competitions ahead of enabling #diversityrich #mutualwellbeing we will stay living in shadowy caves under the direction of the self-deluded
Isn't it time to talk about the harm caused by laws enacted that do not meet this rule:
"A state is required to make decisions, and ensure there is the infrastructure, to enable the society move towards #Sustainable, #DiversityRich, #MutualWellbeing & #QualityofLifeforAll based on #OpenKnowledge"?
