Thank You, Cyd. the early part about not believing this "narrow" approach, but believing the materialistic approach, prompted the thought that most people believe in infinite economic growth on a finite planet, which I believe has already peaked, is in a bumpy plateau, and will soon decline hard, like this coming year.

We are controlled in this life, as societies, by what Plato called "the noble lie", or now, "control narratives".

I am sorry to say that WW-3 looks like the only control-narrative big enough and flexible enough for the elites/owners to use this time, but I'd happily be wrong. We can't know yet. They have clever people working for them. Peak oil-plus-condensates in November 2018 looked like the August-September 2019 "Repo Crisis", followed by COVID lockdowns in a "lockstep" world in March 2020.

Yesterday I watched an excellent talk by Russell Brand on this very topic--breaking the spell he called it. I am hopeful that the power regimes and elites are in the process of being overthrown. Let's see how 2025 shakes out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2la0N1pfJkU&list=LL
