“The future will emerge from the thoughts and actions”

I guess it will be mainly “actions”, unfortunately…

People are protesting against what they feel is incorrect or unjust.

What can make the people to join a « correct » Project ?

Only higher knowledge and/or pre-digested views disseminated by mass-media press can do that.

We know what the average knowledge level is and will be in the next future.

What about the press ?

« What is it that we believe is important, relevant, hidden, perhaps, or even in plain sight and ignored by conventional journalistic wisdom or governmental wisdom? » (…) « And when lying is combined with secrecy, there is usually a pretty good roadmap in front of us. Yes, follow the money, but follow, also, the lies. » ( Carl Bernstein — WHCA 29 avril 2017 )

« The press, especially the so-called mainstream media, comes under regular attack, particularly during presidential campaigns » (…) « most Americans disapprove of and distrust the media. » « Obviously, our reporting needs to get both facts and tone right. » (…) « any relaxation by the press will be extremely costly to democracy. » (Bob Woodward — WHCA 29 avril 2017)

But, how can the mainstream media reporters follow the ethical principles of the people they inform, when these reporters are hired by people whose objective clearly are others ?

The only way out I imagine will follow a long period of frustrations…

First, the people will elect anyone that promises what they would like.

Then, when economical difficulties will become even harder, the people will want to throw away the « system », without knowing with what to replace it.

That is why Global Warming will pursue its course. As I often say : Global Collapse is our Destiny. We ought to be more humble, and learn from the First People, who managed to survive during hundreds of thousands of years…
