It's what we do with it - that matters.

Old systems are fading away.  It's not a prediction, a sentiment, or concept - it's a fact.

And with that comes clarity.  For example, it has become increasingly obvious how, why, when, and where power shifts hands, how systems of oppression and blatant exploitation have come to be viewed as prosocial - without critical and honest systems of analysis being applied.  

Feeding old systems is counter productive and should be avoided at all costs, including providing conscious energy in the form of protest, unless the elucidation of their means and modes can help prevent, inhibit, and even remedy further exploitation.

What we do with the failing systems matters.

Therefore, a focus on generating new pathways of potential that truly align with current conscious thought and morality is what is called for.  Unfortunately, in many cases, this focus is made extremely (and often pointlessly) difficult, by the ever-cascading deleterious effects of runaway egos clinging to a world that supported, excused, and even celebrated their privilege-based-merit, and ability to sit outside of the effects of normalized corruption and exploitation.

Entropy is natural, and yet, an enormous amount of well-off middle-aged white men, who wear unearned entitlement as though it were imparted by God Himself, fight it like its their last living breath.

Perhaps that's because they (the profoundly privileged) have developed an inability to see alternate pathways of potential.  Perhaps it's because they know they cannot possibly fill (or even fathom) new roles made necessary by crumbling infrastructures - infrastructures designed and held in place for millennia, that do nothing more than prop up white male ego and complacency.

What is certain, is the frontier is wide open, because for the first time in history the hunted, the exploited, the abused, maligned, and silenced have come equipped with eyes made collectively wide, through shared suffering.  They have armed themselves with the weapon we call storytelling, by stripping it away from those who have hoarded it and employed it as a form of enslavement.

The storytellers are waking.

This is their time.

This is OUR time.
