beliefs, thoughts, etc...
I am a believer of radical inclusiveness: I think that the social environment is the root cause of most antisocial behaviour, and that anarchic and loving environments, when coupled with free and extensive education will naturally lead to better and more successful societies (less power abuses, advancements in technology and culture available to all).
To make this possible we have to leave behind such antiquate concepts as social classes, mere-competion based economy and sectarian or specialistic education. We should try to include everyone and everyone's culture.
A revolutionary ontology
I have chosen to use this little space on my user page to expound my ontology for bringing about a peaceful, anarchic revolution of society. This is a materialistic ontology, in that it relies only on direct experience and rational thought, but can be expanded with meta-physical or spiritual aspects. I have tried to make the definitions as simple to understand as possible, please let me know if you understand them or if you find this useful or disagree with my approach.
Anarchy: the ideal society in which individual freedom and dignity is maximized, by maintaining an equal distribution of responsibility and power. It will be based on a new social contract
Awareness or Consciousness: is the result of the memory of one's past actions and of their effects (this was tricky!).
Collective consciousness or shared consciousness: is the result of the memory of society's action in the past and of their effects (history)
Empathy: is the ability to communicate pre-rationally. No shared consciousness, no revolution is possible without mutual empathy. There are many potential barriers to empathy (language, nationality, prejudice)
Individual: is any actual or potential member of society. Every individual that agrees with the new social contract can partecipate to anarchy, regardless of gender/beliefs/age/origins etc.
Intelligence: is the ability to solve problems. It is activated and stimulated by motivation and made possible by consciousness
Collective intelligence: is the ability of a society to solve problems external or internal to it
Motivation: the motivators of human actions are material gain (the satisfaction of a physical need), social gain (the satisfaction of others's expectations), spiritual gain (the satisfaction of one's own beliefs)
New social contract: is the social contract for every citizen on Earth, once anarchy is enstablished. The primitive social contract was a pact of mutual non-aggression, the new social contract is a pact of mutual protection and mutual responsibility
Revolution: is a radical, large-scale change in society. All major revolutions have been associated with technological advances
Socialism: is the mode of society in which commodities are produced and exchanged according to people's needs, abolishing the scarcity of capitalism. Socialism is made possible not by the enforcement of a State, but by the collective, conscious effort of the community
