The Future of Humanity

Reinventing Humanity.

Where are we heading? What is a common purpose of collective scientific efforts of today? Maddening obsession of stretching comfort beyond rational needs has sent the notion of men as a higher being into the oblivion. Humans are not advancing morally or intellectually. There is an illusion of progress which is inexorably drowning men into the swamp of despair. Hordes of marionettes that are dictated by the silent and invisible puppeteer are walking away from essence of human potential. Hopelessly happy; drowning in the ocean of pills and delusions whilst myriad of subconscious psychological messages and propagandas are deforming his mind from the inside. It dulls the instinct for thought leaving us vulnerable to manipulation and misuse. The more advanced the technology is; the more control smaller groups of people have over the population. As the level of required comfort raises so does our vulnerability and dependence. Luxurious comfort is an artificial need for things beyond our genetically predestinated urges. This comfort grows as technology grows making us more and more fragile, dependent, distant, cold, emotionless, dull, automatized and prone to misuse. This misuse is based on conscious and subconscious processes that are fueled by the greed and unsustainable lust for power. How long will it be before human race turns into an electronically stimulated biological robots programmed to subjugate to every transmitted command? Robotized society is driven by the insatiable urge for massive control.

Limited scope of egoism, blind to the long-term effects of its counterproductive reign of silent hegemony, has grown malign roots in the process of transcending human being; letting insatiable hunger for absolute control feast on the weaknesses men has carelessly allowed to survive. It confuses the identity of the human being. Humans are elevated with the progress of thought, the one thing that always separated men from animal. Philosophers are the mythical wanderers of the future; but the higher form of the human being is being torn apart by the mindless claws of the wired colossus in the era of metal and bone.
Obviousness of my words is pale and distant, inevitably marching forward.
What it takes for a self-wounded animal to stand on its feet? - To wake up and realize itself? - To readjust its paths? Self-realization and vast amount of collective will be fuelling ubiquitous insurgency of the body and the mind. Power, ordinary man holds in his hands is in incalculable proportions. Nothing overshadows it. The great crisis is coming with the new generations of rebels. Non-appearance of it welcomes the silent and inexorable end of men; the intellectual forfeit.

Desperate times justify extreme measures, and sometimes they necessitate them. We must call on the inner spirit of anarchy and prevent the infectious disease of unsustainable will for power from depriving men of its identity. The mechanical man is the pinnacle of the devolution of the human race. He instinctively subordinates common men and monotonizes his customs, norms, mentality, attitudes, behavior; creating an illusion of freedom in the form of parallel mindset, depriving him of diversity in any significant form. As such, he should be deconstructed and rehumanized.
