RE: IFC - S1 : R30 entry - Most Important Issue - iexplore's gift to the world
Great entry! I vibe with this a lot, and I think even I'm guilty of not knowing where some of the stuff I get comes from.. But I do try to become aware of things and not contribute to injustice when I can, which is one reason I went vegan. I think once you realize injustice, most people don't wanna be a part of it anymore.. But a lot of people are unconsciously contributing to massive injustice.. And I agree with your sentiments and the sentiments of that quote.. I think that is one of the most important issues out there.. Not just apathy, but ignorance as well. For how can you even be apathetic about something if you don't even know about it? Knowing is key. Thanks for the great entry!
Yes! Lets not be ignorant to our actions! I think we are all guilty. If we can make more people recognize this we might be able to put an end to corrupt corporate capitalism and have hope to transition to a conscious un-corrupt system.
I think the better you can target the source of things, or one of the sources and put it into words the better. One of my main missions in life is to try to help explain what I see in better and more effective ways and I think the "unconscious" aspect is a big part, so thanks for helping me with that. Though.. It's still pretty hard to get through to a lot of people who don't want to see the information, who sort of choose to remain ignorant of the greater world and deeper morality and things of such nature.. So.. A major struggle is still how to try to encourage people to care enough to learn about all of these things instead of playing video games or watching TV or just whatever the various kinds of ways people escape into pleasure modes. And I'm not saying any of that is bad, it's just out of proportion to the amount people try to help. They spend too much time hedonistically and not enough time altruistically and selflessly trying to help others in my opinion, to the point it essentially threatens the existence of our species and most life on the planet..
I think my "bread and circus" applies more this comment. :) I like your mission. It adds such great value to society. And it's a way to at least get the conversation started. If we keep "seeding" the truth we will open up more eyes then you think. People are stubborn, it's up to them to decided, but I think the conversation can't be ignored much longer.
It is like a big bread and circus.. The mental asylum of the Milky Way.
And yeah.. I think it's good to have far off dreams, but also realistic goals too. And I can realistically be happy with just trying to help share important or useful information. That makes me happy. But who knows, maybe in time a lot more will happen. :) Time will tell and I can still dream! :D
Also.. I tend to agree, with the internet more and more things are being discussed more and more and it's hard to avoid some of the issues for too much longer, the people in power can downplay and minimize and censor and hide a lot, but I mean.. In time.. Eventually we gotta make some crossroads. Well.. Hopefully anyways!!
