RE: AGORISM As A Way To Celebrate Love, Beauty + Freedom 🌺
Thanks for the great post! I love the last image too. Something that I've been thinking a lot about lately is an "ah ha" moment I had after watching an inspirational video about Elon Musk. He didn't mention the idea directly, but the idea is specialization. As humans we have limited time, and no one can specialize in all the different specializations required. Elon Musk was specifically talking about scientists to make space travel possible. It's a daunting task.
That concept though applies to all other things in life, and humans must work together, as your image suggested, or we cannot specialize and advance our technology in good and efficient ways. Without specialization, we lose technology. Humans have to work together to make specialization really shine too. You may be the specialist on calculating launch angles, but I'm the specialist on heat shielding.
Private enterprise, free from government controls, makes those things possible. The funny meme out there of course is an image of a cell phone, computer, and the space shuttle. The shuttle went unchanged for 20 years while the other two greatly advanced. There's no mystery as to why either. Now enter Space X, and see the huge advancements they've made. It's amazing... really amazing.
With the freedom they have and the ability for so many smart people to get together as different specialists, they are making the unthinkable reality. That would not be possible without agorism and free markets and individual liberty either. :)
Wow, such rich thoughts! Thanks for sharing them, @finnian. :-)
I agree with this!
I also think humans need to re-acquaint ourselves with HOLISTIC thought. The prevalent mechanistic paradigm has EVERYTHING dis-assembled into scattered pieces and parts -- specializations -- as if Life was not deeply connected on every level... seen and unseen, understood and yet grasped.
