Aren't we all already trapped in our own comfort zone, at least the generations that have been shaped by the "Western ideas of the world"? Who wants to imagine a world without the internet and smartphones? Too many already "play" with Alexa and pay without cash because it's so cool and convenient. Too many no longer dare to walk around a new city without google maps. All thinking is being outsourced. Too much trust in technology and progress - too little reflection on what technology and progress have really caused.
Where right becomes wrong, resistance becomes a duty
Revolt against
the "green revolution (Alliance for a
Green Revolution in Africa)"
10. July 2020, 18:22h, SZ, Sueddeutsche
Zeitung:
"Farmers
forced to abandon their mixed crops,
nutrient-rich crops crowded out,
smallholders ending up in debt: An
investigation published on Friday
delivers a damning verdict on the Bill
and Melinda Gates-funded developmental
agricultural alliance in Africa. The
study concludes that the alliance has
failed to achieve its own goals and that
its corporate-driven approach is
ineffective in ending hunger....Among
the biggest donors are the Bill and
Melinda Gates Foundation and the
Rockefeller Foundation. The development
organisation promised great things: by
2020, the private-public initiative,
with which German development aid also
cooperates, should halve food insecurity
in 20 African countries and double the
income and productivity of 30 million
small farmers. This was to be achieved
through a "green revolution": with
licensed seeds, synthetic fertilisers
and pesticides, and integration into
global supply chains."

From (wheat)starch to wheat to war: Civilisation

It is said that cultures are what has grown historically. This is where their strength, their distinctiveness, and also their injustice comes from. When cultures become reflexive, civilisation emerges.
Civilisation - that is pacification and taming of cultures.
The task of "civilising" the subjugated peoples played a central role in the legitimising discourse on the colonialism of the great European powers.
This strategy of their own territorial expansion continues to be carried through.
Sovereignity and territorial integrity ...
But it ended up that we are all the
storm, we cause it - with all our little
daily desires.
With our desperate
attempts to get out of our personal
unhappiness. Still we want more, we
always want something else. Even today,
we can be made to feel that we need this
or that. Advertising, manipulation is
everywhere and the greed for everything
is unbroken...br>
We have to
free ourselves from this. Basically, we
have to resist ourselves. That is the
challenge. Being happy and satisfied is
not something you achieve through
hyperconsumption.
As the Invisible
Committee wrote at the end of 2017:
"The destructive force of the
revolutionary process can do nothing
without that charge of quiet positivity
inherent in any happy existence."
So
the individual is addressed - it's about
the question of happiness and new ways
of living that enable the individual to
escape the system. Refusal and silence
instead of noisy proclamations. There
will be no overthrow of the existing
order without a commitment to a
desirable life.
We have known
this for almost two generations now. And
it was seen coming, but successfully
suppressed again and again.
And now
it's here: the super disaster. The
shelves are empty, the supply has come
to a standstill, even though there is
still a bit of production left. But
resources are running out, the soil is
drying out, the insects and bees are
gone.
Nevertheless, you get even
more happily shopping and consuming
people on board.
But
hyperconsumption is collapsing because
it is eating itself up.
And now they
are desperately looking for someone to
blame. Time to think of fetish....
