I am trying to describe the situation, based on the analysis made by the
ancient Greeks from similar situations, in their form, to those we are
living. I believe that we must innovate, without forgetting everything
that has been advanced in the past. Even as an efficient method of
social evolution.

What looks like a democracy is not. It has another name. And I consider
the best way to solve problems is trying to understand. That is why I
present a term, Ochlocracy, that best fits the reality we are living.

I would have to talk to you about many things. Of tribalism, for
example. That currents of thought can be generated to dominate people.

Borders, divisions, nomenclatures, demarcations are attempts to simplify
the enormous complexity, and to generalize, mainly, because we don't
have time to meet all the people that exist.

Even of the psychology of human behavior, of what is known as the
paradigm of the minimum group, where if two groups are established based
on trivial and arbitrary criteria, such as those awarded by chance to
throw a coin in the air, people will tend to favor members of their own
group over those of the opposite group. Soccer teams are a good example
of this. And course, state-nations.

The herd mentality is predictable, for better or worse. And we must keep
it in mind if what we seek in a global social implication.

Do you mean what is happening right now?.

Or you are so simple to think that it will be Greta Thunberg who will
guide us in solving our problems with the speech about that we are all
guilty?.

I will ask for an invitation to go to the UN to say what I think. I
guess with an innocent, angelic look, I might get it. Purity is the
perfect puppet for elites. I hope you understand the irony.

Certainly, the English Wikipedia article is not as well developed as in
other languages:

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oclocracia

Have you ever wondered how there can be right-wing workers? Or gay
Christians ?. Have you ever wondered why are there so many
contradictions in social groups and people? Have you ever wondered why
there are such extremely stupid and intolerant people around you?

It is an induced process to take away the identity of the individual,
package it, give it another more childish sense and thus be able to use
it against true dissent. The mass exerts a type of passive and constant
repression to those who know in Plato's cave.

Maybe knowing it helps those who on some occasion feel something similar
to being able to carry it better.

To play!. And you should do it too, as soon as possible. And all the
people who still feel something for the injustices. Because I assure you
that what will be extinguished will be humanity, not the planet.

For example, here is an interesting game... And maybe, It get to your city:

It's okay. Although it is a great frontier. I hope that people who
follow us will understand. The effort to bring thought closer is another
way of loving. ;-)
