I don't have any answers but this is a solid follow-uo ask.
I don't think mankind really shares in the glory of what we are. And I think a lot of that is because the new world is unknowable, made by closed corporations & defined as intellectual property. An open society that can better apprehend what we are, what we're made of, that can participate & see & study & meddle, I think, would be a different humanity with a better character, a stronger connection to truth & meaning & competency, would find better balances, would better be able to love itself. We are aliens within this world we have made, this world where we are denied knowlesge of all manly things.
