<!-- For humanity to continue to exist, it must cast away that which denies humanity, that which constrains it to a dreamless stasis and tears apart those basic aspects of human potential, meaning and sense. The work done here solidifies these ideas and thrusts them forward, they. Claim the future, don't wait for it, because there are those selling it out right now.


Return to the future. I think what we need to do is to start dreaming much more aggressively, dream much bigger, and start dreaming in public with each other, harmoniously if we can, or have our dreams fight each other, but at least start unlocking the potential of human imagination and not immediately grounding every new idea in some sort of race to see whether we can invalidate it, give it enough of a room to grow.
What we're going to do in this program is effectively to declare war. War on stasis. War on group think. War on everything that has enervated our society, and we're going to do it because we have the ability now to compete with the networks that previously grew up to distribute whatever it was that was portrayed as sense-making.
Revitalize sense-making by describing things in their complexities ([https://theportal.group/35-audio-essay-superposition/ superpositions]) so that we can truly progress towards truth and agreement. But it's certain that if we stay here and we do not attempt to grow beyond the problems that we've previously created for ourselves in decades past, that the future is not going to be appealing or powerful enough to evade some of the fates that some people are seeing as being nearly inescapable.
What we need to do is to return to our own future. -->
