  1. This guy is right, but he has just touched the tip of the tip of the iceberg. The resultant of any action 100 years back or more just affected a small group of whoever/whatever, but today the networks, the affects, the system are so big that worldwide systems are affected. Pollution, radiation, ideas, weapons, germs, everything is so close to everything else in time and space that the planet is unstable. Think of our computers, just like Twitter, but the systems in place that governments and private industry are hacking that can being down whole economies. Human beings, we hairless apes do not know or have enough wisdom to manage a system such as this, and yet the forces push us to get more and more power, like capitalism in the game of Monopoly, we will soon have a few elite owners, and then it will be their fewer elite children who never had the privilege or experience of growing up in the world, just this synthetic mix of artificial lies we call models and ideas that we all accept without thinking, because there is nothing else to think about and the giant herd that we all run among will stampede right over us if we are not careful to do what everyone else does, and even then sometimes. This is a scary time, and no one but the very small few is thinking about it or talking about it, and no one is listening. But there sure are a lot of shouting down by people who are risking everyone else's lives with the confidence only the vastly ignorant can summon.
