Grand vision (or ideology as it’s also called) is a dead end of history - has been tried too many times, always failed spectacularly.
Instead we need small incremental lasting change - thinking we can transform life within a generation without repercussions, that’s just silly
- BriggyDwiggs42 2y agoWe actively live under an ideology, and the idea that we should only seek to change things in small incremental ways is a fixture of that ideology. I think that’s called liberalism but I’m not really sure. Either way, who said anything about grand visions being restricted to a short time window of implementation? Any grand vision I could remotely conceive of would have to take centuries at least, unless maybe you consider some benevolent AI dictator or something.
