| | | As a species, likely, enough humans would survive a nuclear war - to be able, in time, to start everything from the beginning. But still - the world as it is today is quite remarkable. Also, we may be on the verge of some remarkable accomplishments and breakthroughs. We may even be on the verge to coming to our senses - which… just may make it possible to avoid annihilation.
A day or two ago I saw some publication about a new device - a pair of eyeglasses, which uses speech recognition in order to create subtitles of whatever the other person is saying. For those hearing impaired, it’s a great invention. I think it would be pretty easy to add an ability to translate - and the user would get instant translation of what is being said..just imagine - never a need to learn another language… :)
That’s just one example. There are multitudes of them. The future promises to be different and interesting.
To dump all this, and to lose 90-99% of the humans - with the rest trying to survive under pretty horrible conditions - would be a ridiculous price to pay for pursuing idiocies like global hegemony vs. multipolar world. I’d say, over 99% of humans either don’t know what any of this means - or don’t care. So, basically, those things are being imposed by a tiny minority of aholes. |
