THE BEADY EYE ASKS: WILL WE EVER BE SATISFIED?

( Three minute read)

This is the question if we could answer it with a positive yes would bring peace to the world we live in.

The answer appears however to be No . It’s not possible to satisfy man

Why?

Because we suffer from greed. We must have more of everything.

One million, two million, one country, another country, one woman many women one oil well many oil wells etc etc

Some people say we have greed gene. But thats not how genetics works

Resource acquisition is built into us by our ancestors. The ones with the most resources survive.

We have unlimited wants but limited means of getting them .

In this world we have very few examples of one nation helping another to lift its self up. If there is an example it usually two societies of a similar nature, not a richer society lifting a poor society.

As a species we remain to divide.

Money and power begets Money and power.

Climate change might change more than the climate by making us realise that there is no future in I am all right Jack society.

Highly unlikely when one looks at the history of our species. Killing is the easer option.

Will we ever be satisfied- yes when we’re all dead.

THE BEADY EYE SAYS THE VIRUS OF STUPIDITY WITH DONALD DUMP, SOCIAL MEDIA, POPULARISM, ADVERTISING, THE METAVERSE/ GAMING, STUPIDITY IS NOW WELL ESTABLISHED WITH IN OUR SOCIETIES

Yes we survived Covid, two world wars, the Spanish Flu, the Cold War, but will we survive the current pandemic of stupidity.

Yes Stupidity

It contaminated every place, every collective decision, every trade deal, war .

Just look at the state of our world and tell me that I am wrong.

Eg. Climate change. Current Wars.

Never mind allowing Israel commit a genocide while our world organisations hum and haw what to do if anything and thats not mentioned Mr Putin or the king of stupidity Mr Dump.

The stupidity that is effecting the modern world is not accidental it’s driven by the internet, social media, advertising and short term thinking of our elected politicians.

All of which with our education system that are totally outdated are set to get ten times worse while AI turns us into do digital citizens.

I suppose we have always been dumb, our historical History bears witness to just stupid we can get.

While the above is true we now looking at a generation of glazed two eyes teenagers looking at their mobile phones while the real world passes them by.

To get passed the glazed eyes and numbed imaginations, and atrophied reason of a generation of Dow Dow television addicts and victims of media saturation..

If we are to live in a world where there are no eyes to see the truth, no ears to hear it no minds open enough to recognise and receive it.

What then I ask, were going to need climate change in more ways than one.

We in the mist of the biggest change in human history with Artificial Intelligence’s unable to grasp’ its implications ( see previous blogs)

Well we lucky because climate change is going to get rid of all the with pea brains.

Or for that matter we are well on the way to running out of fresh water which has no substitutes.

We are the pivot generation and the future of human civilisation will be what we make it.

THE BEADY EYE SAYS. IF WE REALLY WANT TO REDUCE POVERTY AND INEQUALITY – POVERTY IS GETTING WORSE, WE NEED TO ADOPTED A BASIC LIVING WAGE.

Just like climate change , this is an area where we have built an industry around the problem rather than a cure.

The results of Aid given to non rich countries shows that this kind of aids has little or no impact in tackling the growing inequality gap or poverty for that matter.

With the coming loss of thousands of jobs to AI,

Now is the time to introduce a Basic Living

Wage.

Direct Aid ensure dignity.

It acts as a stimulant to weak economy and encourage imagination.

Now we all know the arguments against a Basic Wage. Inflation! Just think what Donal Trump tariffs are doing.

It’s time to get rid of social welfare and equip people with the means to look after themselves.

To manage their own medical /educational and daily needs.

We try all other routes so on the pre-text that the establishment of a BASIC WAGE has been try with small groups and found to have positive results why not explore it.

We can say poverty in all the languages under the sun and have done so since time memorial till AID foundation are blue in the face.

There is nothing to be lost to let people find their own footing within society,

Affect centuries of giving Aid that had not turned into happiness but into corruption.

This is not Wealth distribution. This is equipping individuals with the means to improve their lives.

Let’s be creative.

Happiest comes from self respect and self respect is obtained through pride.

There is often quite appalling disparity in social conditions and a hostility born of fear between against the privileged and the deprived, the exploiters and the exploited.

The privilege always use any surpluses to either improve or protect their position.

We can only try to reverse that position with taxes., or with what is called the triangle down capitalism, which we knew has not worked and will never work.

I know that there have been places where a basic wage has been tried, with some considerable success.

Let’s give back some pride.

THE BEADY EYE SAYS THE WAY WE THINK ABOUT DEATH SHAPE OUR LIVES

We are creatures that know we are going to die . This has a fundamental effect on us and the ways we live or place value on things.

What makes life valuable.? Death.

However to think clearly about death we been to think clearly about life. We are incapable of doing this, although death is a universal experience, no one can experience.

It is the most significant fact about existence. It effects the very Structure of human culture

I have just experienced a triple bypass and let me tell you it you survive it’s the next thing to experience death.

Why do we fear death?

When there’s no you how can death be bad for you.

When we exist death does not exist and like wise when we’re dead. That said we now confront a new world where there’s no rest not even death,

Artificial intelligence robots will not die there once switch on they run indefinitely, unless we design a code when activated cut the source of power.

When powers shift from organically decisions to Artificial Ai decisions we are in trouble( because we have no laws that AI corporations have to obey)

You might think I won’t be around to see robots with legal personnel identification.

You be wrong.

Corporations all ready have independent legal rights , so why not a robot that can make decisions on its own , For example where to invest its resources, its money etc.

No one can die you death for you.

It’s profoundly yours.

By taking ownership you become free of others, you become devise about yourself and all illusion that surround you disappear.

Deaths shape life’s journey pathway.

You become your authentic self,

This is the gift of a bypass. A rebirth not to be wasted.

THE BEADY EYE ASKS WHY DO WE HAVE SO MANY-LANGUAGES IN THE WORLD WHEN ONE OR TWO WOULD HAVE DONE THE JOB?

( Four minute read)

Before languages, we had visual theft for thousands of years. We watched other make axis. Then we went home and remembered what we had seen but we could not describe to anyone else how to do it.

Along came HOMO SAPINS.

With a grunt here and a grunt there about 135,000 years ago ( up till then it was gesturing that rule the roost) in the Stone Age developed language.

The truth however is no one quite knows how or exactly when the human brain developed language.

To day we have around 70000 different languages. Which was the first? Most likely Arabic.

No is also a very popular word in languages.

Chinese and Spanish were spot long before English.

“ Huh “ is the only word that is common to all languages . It’s the sound we make when we’re are confused.

Amen is one of those words that causes debate . “ May it be so “

The question is does the language we speak shape the way we think?

I would say yes the way one talks about the world must shape our thoughts which come first,.Thec words we chose describe our reality, our perceptions a direct image of our minds.

But language is not needed for though only to put those thought into a description that can be understood.

We have to speak and reason in the language of our own time., otherwise it makes no sense.

With AI we will probably turn languages into bound listeners. If we stop noticing each other we definitely be back to HUh.

The digital destruction of children is a crisis we will have to face with language to stop it happening.

THE BEADY EYE SAYS CAPITALISM HAS TO CHANGE IN ORDER TO STOP CLIMATE CHANGE AND CURRENT WARS

( Six minute read)

Just ask yourself after you taken a look at the current state of our planet.

I use the phrase our world caughtlessly for it will not be our planet for much longer rather a planet we share with Artificial Intelligence.

Knowledge is going to be the new driver of Capitalism.

This knowledge is what’s called data which we give away for free to multi universal clongmerets called platforms .

There was a time when globalised companies enriched more than a few people. That is with AI is becoming less and less the norm. Indeed individual is now the mantra – I am alright Jack the theme of the world of industry. Finances, scratch my back and I will do a deal.

Where is all of this going to end up is anyone guess.

It won’t be long before we are going to have to admit that we are losing control of AI ( as if we ever had any control in the first place)

But all of this is worthless, it’s not going to stop the coming wars or the war we should all be fighting CLIMATE CHANGE.

Unless the 8 billion of us confront the climate crisis it won’t matter who rich or not or who is at war with whom.

At the moment we seem to have a crop of asshoels in power with little understanding of where the world is going or any understanding that its needs every one of fully attention to reverse a future not worth living.

The great secret of capitalism is not the above it is how it how it has spread inequality.

We’re now faced with disaster capitalism, with countries unable to pay their nationals debts there will be not enough money to pay every day expenses never mind contributing to tackling climate change.

This is why this blog has suggested that toll roads and toll bridges should have a 0.5% climate commission add to their tickets.

This would provide a perpetual fund to give non repayable grants to projects against global warming.

THE BEADY ASKS AFTER ALL THESE CENTURIES WHY ARE WE STILL ARGUING ABOUT THE SAME GOD?

Tags

( Eight minutes read)

The answer is power.

The head Druids of most religions carries power.

However it would be fair to say that the people of God no matter what religion do not listen to church leaders any more. The future will be more about managing oneself in a contradictory world.

The arguments are worn threadbare by centuries of sterile debate.

You would think by now that women should be given the right to be ordained priests in the Catholic Religion. That catholic bachelor lonely priest should be able to marry. This is the bane of the Catholic Church which is out of touch with not just its faithful but modern day life.,

Which by the way are not made in heaven but by two people on earth.

It’s the theological stances that the catholic religion take on things like gay marriage, contraception that are its root problem.

For me there is orthodoxy but it must have a larger dose of orthopaedix because more and more of us are making our own arrangements in search of simplicities.

And that simplicity is found in the warmth of love but sleep which is the brother of death mask the complexity of living a loving life.

We all know that the newly elected Pope is an American. His papacy therefore will be be summed up in one word and that is Trustworthiness.

With the likes of DONALD TRUMP who would you trust.

One needs a lie detector for the USA president while the pope is infallible,he cannot tell a lie.

With the arrival of the internet, the smart phone, and social media no one gives a fuck, we entering an age of indifference.

Another words were all to busy living our lives to start thinking we need to save our souls. Wars and AI, with a new discovery daily leaves little time for praying.

History is no longer the domain of scholars ferreting in dusty libraries.

Let’s hope this new pope is not an imperialist.

The trouble these days is how to believe, top down or bottom up.

Last to speak is the one I would listen to.

We are entering a new age of evolution with AI.

Unfortunately the same flawed logic exists to day as when pope innocent 111 was around who claimed sovereign dominion of life and death over all Christian .

He might have been right as no organic man is ever going to leave the this planet and establish a space colony.

There will have to be a marriage between us and AI.

Once that happens all religions idols and ideologies will go out the window. Each generation makes its own accommodation with the paradox of the next generation.

However there’s one thing for sure the faithful are no longer illiterate and uncritical and the dispensation of faith with the exercise of power, were the prerogatives only of the literate, they have no place in a world governed by thobgnical power

Why?

Because the problems of modern life which is becoming more and more centralism with AI is if the cogs of creation slip it has nothing to do with us. If you got a wolf by the ears. You can’t hang on and you can’t let go.

The world time now telescoped itself with social media from one crisis to another in a blink of an eye.

Ai its self could become a religion of free will becoming dangerous due to isolation with an impact on what is true and dignity.

THE BEADY EYE SAYS WE ARE NO LONGER LOOKING AT EITHER CLIMATE CHANGE OR GLOBAL WARMING.,WHAT WE WILL BE SHORTLY LOOKING AT IS CLIMATE BRAKING DOWN.

( Five minute read)

Open Letter to the delegates attending the forthcoming climate conference in Brazil.

It’s no longer good enough to accept climate change.

We either do something about it or suffer the consequences.

This is not an emergency that will come to an end, this is a long term crisis, that is going to cost trillions to resolve.

With somewhere in the region of 50, 000 delegates the conference its self will leave a carbon footprint.

But that’s not the point of this article.

It’s been ten years we have been having climate conferences that resulted in setting a global warming target 1.5 % rise which has already been broken.

We got to be aware this crisis will not be solved by governments who are strapped by the economy for cash they will see an opportunity to make money by turning the climate into a product.

The main problem is securing the money in order to do anything constructive about it.

Countries that did not have the benefits or of the Industrial Revolution are rightly saying we did not contribute to the crisis so why should we have to pay.

There is only one road to go down which would be fair on non developed countries and would at the same time not increase tax on hard pressed taxpayers.

That is ( and we have the technology to do it) place a 0.5% Climate commission on all toll roads, toll bridges .

These funds to be granted to climate projects, like cover roof of housing, factories , supermarkets, football stadiums , you name it with solar panels. Up grading the grit to except green generated power etc.

Has anyone got a better idea.

Let’s hear it.

THE BEADY EYE ASKS IS IT TIME TO SAY ADIDOS TO AMERICA AND LET THE GANGSTER HIGH AND DRY WHILE HE LINES HIS OWN POCKETS?

If you’re were to be asked a year or two ago could you imagine the United States being run by a convicted felon

It would be fair to say that 99.9% would have answered in the negative.

I suppose the only true answer is that like the morons that vote for Brexit the USA has its fair share of them to vote for a MORON called DONALD TRUMP.

If asked the question how in god’s name did such a man Donald Trump get into power never mind politics.

Now on a salary of over 500.000$ a year. Plus 50,000 expensive, 100,000 travel and 19,000 entertainment expenses.

Plus a pension for 250,000$ for life and a wife pension of 20,000$

It is estimated that Mr Dump is worth around 5.1 billion.

On top off that he has an expense account re running the White House.

He employs around 22,000 people. Has around 300 agents protecting him

Not bad for a man currently lining his own pockets with trade deals not worth the paper they are writing on.

The White House runs on 81 staff out of which 40 earn 180,000$ with the rest are on $ 20.000.

To become a president of the USA is to spend billions on Media so the Morans believe you, just like Brigit in the UK that had its fair share of morons believe that after fifty years of being in the eurozone it was right thing to do and turn your back on the biggest market in Europe, every country has them.

If you don’t believe me the department of homeland security has spent 51 million $ this year thanking DONALD DUMP for securing the borders.

He is spending 20 billion on Argentina.

The future of civilisation is what we can make it.

Not Donald Trump. We must all come together to tackle Climate Change that use to take decades to change buy is now happening in front of our eyes.

No matter how much money Donald Trump puts in your pocket it will not pay for what’s coming with climate change.
