Living in South Africa throughout 2009 working for an NGO organization working towards World Equality with focus on an Equal Money System (equalmoney.org) Currently participating from Denmark, being active in the debate about Global Equality, specifically through the internet, using social sites, blogs and vlogs to lift the veil of comfort and delusion that is covering our westernized eyes. One of my main points of interest is how the self-delusion of the West, is creating and continuing to allow Suffering in the rest of the World. This should be Common Sense, for example based on the fact that there statistically is enough food in the world to feed everyone and yet two billion people are still starving and existing in severe poverty. (I am currently writing an article about refugees and migration and have previously written several other articles about the money-system and inequality.) The basic principle is that we are all Equal, by the very fact that we are all Equally Here, consisting of the same fabric, Living on the same Earth - yet we are living as though inequality is an acceptable consequence of the development of the world, using the money-system as justification and manifestation of this allowed inequality and in the process destroying the planet and ourselves along with it. The point is that we are all Equally Responsible (as we have all participated and accepted the money-systems that is supporting inequality), yet some have more power to change the situation than others - specifically those of us born with access to money and education. But we have diluted ourselves into separate bubbles, where each fight for their own survival - abdicating self-responsibility to governments and corporations or fighting 'the system' instead of standing Equal to it - Therefore a Solution is required where what is Best for All (not as an Utopian or totalitarian ideology, but based on practical, physical, livable facts) stands as the governing principle, where each take Self-Responsibility for their participation in this World.
Cultural Elite or Imperialist Justifications
We are the cultural and political elite of this world. We believe our society is the pinnacle of evolutionary development (what is better than “democracy” after all), we believe our products and services and capitalist ethics form the basis of our emerging technological utopia, in short we believe we are God’s gift to this earth, developing the lands and bringing culture and prosperity to the unwashed spiritual and scientific heathens. But is that really so? Not according to this commentator who points out that behind our subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) airs of intellectual, spiritual, cultural, and scientific superiority lies a brutal and greedy imperialist reality. Exaggeration or brutal truth? You be the judge. Imperlialism in Action
