RE: Don’t Call Me a Commie or Utopianist Baby!

Besides the cynicism this was very well written. I think what people should realise is you are not alone and many feel the same way as you. I have always thought about the human nature and our history, and one thing is clear, this shit has always been around. However in the past you could just stay home and you would not hear the bs and conspiracy theorists and the like. Now they come into your home via broadband and in technicolour ...

We need more filters. Hard if world leaders and news leaders are the ones polluting our heads with rubbish though.

PS. What is wrong with a utopian mind set. It gives one hope, however far fetched.

I am glad that you can understand my cynicism and I'm happy that I am not alone. I expect some attackers here who represent the irony of this post.

We need more filters indeed. You have my 5 cents.

What is wrong with a utopian mind set. It gives one hope

Hope I can handle. Provided we don't get fixated on what utopia looks like. I think that utopians are never actually attainable or stable and humans lack the crystal ball necessary to predict the future to keep them that way. So, yes, hope is great, but I never want that dream to come true.
