3.27.25 - The One Above Truth and Objectivity pt 3

"We do not need money. At the root of it all, its always money. Whether its war, famine, an outbreak, a new president, it doesnt matter it all goes back to how much money can I get from this? Art? Money. Living? I need money. Money. Money."

                                                                    - Afaloz

I want to explore this statement from part 1. As I mentioned I am going to be reading these alot to make sure I grasp my own line of thinking but to also expand on it. Sometimes even the expansion will have an expansion, sometimes I will make something contradictory to the initial post. Its all fugahzee.

Money. How does this work without money? 

I find that money truly is the root of all annoyance. Whether you are rich or poor, its a problem for you and me. Rich people have to worry about being eaten by poor people because of this imaginary value we gave a portion of a tree to.

Do you guys realize that 1 tree is essentially 1 bitcoin? That each satoshi is a dollar? 

If we place the value on energy creation, this changes, if we place the value on scarcity this changes but we if we look at the root of what this is. 1 object broken down to smaller objects humans add value to each object and smaller version of object disseminate to other humans.

Thats how dumb money is, we all know its pretend, none of us have grown up. 

We hamstring so much of human society on this one thing in the hopes that we will be the ones to own the most of it. 

We can all lie and say, I only want enough for me, this is untrue in all accounts. 

This is me bitching and complaining. Lets re-assess. 

What is money good for? Its used to value objects in a fast pace so we dont have to critically think about the objects that are in flux. 

We can state that  1 chicken egg is 25 cents and all agree that is somewhat fair. If we remove money then we are forced to critically think about every interaction and this is inefficient in any given metric.

So it adds efficiency at a base level. 

Yet we have devolved this basic understanding via greed. Our materialist programming has caused numerous issues in all accounts, whether you are rich or poor, this is an issue for you. 

So in our utopian society, what would replace money and how would we go about replacing money?

It couldn't happen overnight, it couldn't happen in a decade, this would take 100s of years. I wouldn't go  as far as to state 1000s of years but certainly at least 100~300 years.

What I envision is that to even get people under one roof, you would first need to build the roof. This would require, I shit you not, the wealthiest people and the banks to join together and propose this idea.

What the fuck?

Yup. 

This idea or this philosophy would need to take root at the establishments of capitalism. People who adhere to this philosophy would need to take hold and infiltrate the heart of capitalism. They would need to become the future billionaires and trillionaires, as you cannot defeat capitalism with some idealist thought. You need to defeat capitalism with capitalism.

You must become the captain of the ship to steer it in the direction you deem fit.

This is already prevalent in the geopolitical stratosphere. Those in power did so via capitalism, they gain the favor of the greedy and steered them into their vision. Whether you are Donald, Vlad or Xi or maybe even someone elected such as Carney, Emmanuel or anyone else. You get elected via the promise of money in one way or another. Either giving it to the poor, the country or the party, money always wins.

This is simply the truth that we all live in. We are in a society based on the value of currency which has its value made up by the thoughts and prayers of the mass.

We cannot wish this away, we cannot hope for capitalism to commit suicide. We must embody the current dogma while harboring our own dogmatic views. 

This is no different to kompromat it just has a better end-goal and not so much on blackmail and pee tapes. 

A little preachy there. Lets re-assess.

Why can capitalism only be brought down by capitalism?

Its the inherent flaw of the system. Greed blinds and consumes you.

You state: This relies too much on the goodwill of the rich to kick start a utopian society when individuals have shown that they are more so inline to increasing their wealth than increasing the prosperity of those around them. 

You might be right but we cannot exist as humans and not rely on others. I have thought about having an AI be our savior but it cannot be AI it must be our own choice as humans to better ourselves or it is all yet another facade. We must embrace  each other for a society such as this without money to even function, if greed is at the helm then we are all servants of greed.

My hopes is that one day, our future leaders will understand the need for humanity. 

This is why we must first work on ourselves as individuals before we even think about the larger world. If we work on ourselves, our future has a better starting point and their future will flourish and so on. 

To start a society such as this and to work within the confines of capitalism in the beginning then we must have money and strong leadership. 

These titans of capitalism must wish to unite the various nations of their global trade. To be able to build multiple structures that houses millions and billions of people will be a titanic feat. To be able to destroy past locations and to move people and to house, feed, nourish people would require trillions and a heart. 

Yes many will not go, nations will not sign up for this but if we get a small majority that has the capital to start and show case it then we can move forward with humanity and get to the point of not needing money.

I believe this way of going about it would allow for the short term greed to take over, to be the richest version of a person in their life time, overseeing the movement of a global human society is too enticing. They wouldn't have to live through where money becomes obsolete, that is a problem for the ones beyond them as they did their part.

To have their cake and eat it too, those are the individuals we need to champion this movement. 

So what would replace it and when?

I think recognition replaces money, expertise replaces money, values replaces money. When would this happen? Well when no one is hungry and the utopia would be able to allocate to the stragglers.

I dont envision 100% adoption. As of right now 1% of the population owns 50% of the wealth, is this true? I will never know.

So I envision that with 30% of human beings living in this system and being funded by 30% of the wealth or half of the 1%, this could get its baring. The replacement of money would only come when 97% of the world is under this system as there will only be inter sector trading at this point. There would only be jobs to attain resources outside of the colony and to distribute it. Most will choose not to work, most will want to create art of some sort or consume what others make.

Lets go back to how does this work without money.

The society without money is very far away. We have to tackle alot before we get there. Yet its always useful to imagine what the end state would look like.

So, how would this work?

We would need to remove many things tied with money and there would be alot of pain on both sides. When you read  this is sounds like it would only punish the rich but you are very wrong.

The basic premise is attaining housing, food and safety for everyone. This does not include distractions or a purpose it is mainly to ensure you are able to live. 

The functions that everyone has accustomed to would need to change in the short term, this short term could be a hundred years or so. 

Now this doesn't mean that those niceties would just vanish, the web would still exist but production of new shows and games and other niceties would dwindle in the short term.

Most resource allocation would go towards building housing and and producing food and rotating humans for work. Whether that's farming, construction, there would be a purpose for those in the short term. This purpose would soon disappear as we integrate AI, robotics and as more of the projects get finalized. 

That means in the short term, all resources expenditure need to funnel from one entity and one entity would oversee the whole operation such as an ant colony or mainland China. 

How would we decide who this is? Well it is already decided. It would be the collective .5% who own the funds to fund this  endeavor. Their heart and vision need  to align with the mass for this to work, to be able to pick a successor that is able to let go of the reigns once most needs are met. 

Think of the world becoming a giant factario, once everything is automated you would only need a few to ensure it remains in compliance and a few to ensure it is maintained. 

Now what is the difference between the totalitarian regime and a this utopia?

Seemingly nothing yet it would not produce a military to invade, it would not produce surplus for others to sell, it would not produce random buildings to gouge renters. Every thing would need to be purposeful, each building, each road. Anything and everything that is built and produce needs to be purposeful, not only to budget our resource but to ensure that we are leaving that materialist mindset. Eventually we can circle back to this once the basics are addressed but it should not be the focus of a moneyless society to attain more materialistic ideals, to replace money with infinite materials. We should be grounded and understand the impact of what we build.

Yet. The elephant. How do we stop nations that don't adhere to this from simply invading with their weapons? How do we stop nefarious actors in convincing that the utopia we are building is bad? How do you stop propaganda? 

With extreme transparency. Online and websites and communication doesn't just stop. It will keep expanding. So to combat propaganda you must attack with information.

Enough with the secret plans and grandiose vision that only certain individuals know.

The top must ensure 100% transparency. This means livestreaming their lives as the head of the utopia and ensuring each action they take is known by the whole world. That each direction and guidance is known before it is given to those that must act upon it. This will trigger the morality clause in every human that is not under the utopia. 

If they target this utopia that has no weapons and no standing army, then they side with their country that those human lives are worth less because of their ideals, knowingly exactly what those ideals are and knowing exactly why they choose to kill those with no power.

And if that is their option then let the whole world understand this, let each individual understand that they choose to side with chaos and war. That they do not want peace  and prosperity and this will show the world what humanity truly is and we will get the outcome we want regardless. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Very scattered, its getting harder to keep my thoughts in check even though this is only pt 3. We have a long road to go, to get this fleshed out and be presentable. 

I think its important to be transparent as the root of problems in any society when it comes to leadership is always the mass is in the dark and are expected to believe that the elite are in their favor. Their messaging could reflect this notion yet their actions dont adhere to it, then we are in a flux of constant agitation amongst ourselves with imaginary problems that are fabricated by those same individuals to mask their actions and their conflicting messaging. Its all very destructive and self-inflicting.

They believe they are helping themselves with these tactics but they are only concerned about the near term rather than what it will do to them and their ilk in the future.

We are their ilk. They had just forgotten.

That is why transparency is key. We must be unified in not only messaging but in action. We must stand by each other.
