Greetings Crow! I am grateful Margaret Anna Alice helped us to connect. From the little bit I have seen on your substack and website, it does indeed seem we are birds of a feather (also my name comes from the Scottish Gawain, meaning "white hawk" or falcon).
I am honored by your re-publishing my article here and hope we can work together in the future to combine our efforts towards achieving common goals.
Keep up the great work inviting people to see the current structure of civilization for what it is and inviting them to take responsibility for their own lives.
Here is to a future where we take action to move past the era of followers and leaders, peasants and princes, worshipers and saviors, haves and have-nots, minions and tyrants, corporate producers and consumers and usher in the age of self governed, self reliant, creative, resilient and symbiotically connected human beings which collaborate of their own free will to leave this world a little more beautiful than it was before.
Thanks so much for being willing to let us repost your work! I look forward to gradually getting to know your work more. Also, if you feel like you have something that would be of particular interest to our audience, I invite you to bring it to my attention at thecrowisamessenger@riseup.net or nevermore_media@riseup.net.
Also, we have a group chat on Signal that you're welcome to join in you'd like to.
I am not currently on Signal but I appreciate the invite and if I do get the app i`ll take you up on that offer.
I saw that you posted a hip hop mixtape for paid subscribers and I cannot afford to do a paid sub right now but I would enjoy exchanging tunes some time. I was into the underground hip hop scene when I lived out in Whistler and Van city so I have quite the collection of rare tracks and would appreciate a new infusion of tracks from a like minded ally in my playlists.
I find it interesting re-watching startrek depictions such as TNG series looking back on it with what I know now. I see that while perhaps well intended (and containing some helpful sign posts in the stories about how we might embark on pathways to advance our species and better our civilization) it was also a show that re-enforced several detrimental (and fallacious) mentalities.
For one, the show depicted "Starfleet" and "The United Federation Of Planets" as a supposedly democratic society with a quasi-military organizational structure (with admirals and generals etc). In some ways, this seems to be basically an extension of the same Statist existence of most humans on Earth now, just on a grander scale, and without money being involved.
Then there is the whole built in anthropocentric portrayal of humanity being of some kind of central importance in the Galaxy (Earth having started the “Starfleet” and “Federation” that so many other technologically advanced intelligent species chose to be part of in the story). That is just flat out illogical (even based on the meager astrophysics data we had available in the 90-s). We are on a relatively young planet, orbiting a middle aged star way in the outskirts of the Milky Way. Based on the premise of the show (which was vaguely atheistic) the math indicates that humans would be (and are) the new kids on the block, and when we go out to explore we would inevitably encounter species millions of years ahead of us, which would have inevitably already formed their own “federations”. So having humans at the center of all the action in the Galaxy is just delusional ego flattery.
I also remember that the show glorified technology that uses Restriction Enzyme based / Recombinant DNA Gene splicing technology for growing food in their hydroponics bay. That is the same technology that was used to make all the garbage GMO Corn and Soy that is flooded onto the market today. (for more info on the inherent problems with gene splicing tech and what it produces : https://gavinmounsey.substack.com/p/the-story-of-ge-agriculture-traversing )
Re-watching it also makes me also want to contemplate what an interstellar civilization composed of voluntarists would look and act like.
Yes we can be that (you refer in the end) but you can start to disregard ALL the uman animals that live in cities with >=75.000 MMS/3i's... The level of dependency (on the sub-systems controlled by the SRF & Billionaires) and induced ignorance (via another sub-system) is beyond measure!
I've a newer version for one of those memes! https://postimg.cc/dh07bCVr (another divine link! Not the Baba Yaga)
As for the subject... WAR is an excellent source of PROFIT for a few thousands of americans and for millions of americans it's a pretty cool and well paid job/source of income.
No way in hell the modern moron slaves and Billionaires will let this opportunity go to waste or disappear! Besides, Peace is boring for the degenerate uman animal Thought, and brings no profits... Selling mutant White Doves isn't comparable.

Have a great night.
Catch you on the flip side.
It always has been, and always will be.
Ferengi rule of Acquisition 34: 34 War is good for business.
ahh a fellow trekkie, now your speaking my language! :)
What are your thoughts on that newer Picard Series as compared to the TNG era Startrek series?

Amazing article!
Subbed to this beautiful human (both inside and out)
