“The reasonable man attempts to adapt himself to the world. The unreasonable man attempts to make the world adapt to HIM. Therefore, all progress depends upon the unreasonable man”.
What if the unreasonable man is part of BLM, ANTIFA, or the Brotherhood only interested in violence and domination. There will be no progress... only decay.
So many unanswered valid questions- is wiping out natural habitats and destroying beautiful land and seascapes really “progress”? Or is it industrial and/or commercial greed? Somewhere, someone or some thing loses out because we have a car, computer, electricity, running water, homes, apartments, shoes, etc...These Eienstein geniuses take all the natural growth (trees, plants, shrubbery) off a hillside to build homes and condos only to have stability problems requiring more artificial assistance. Hint all you smarty-pants architects and licensed contractors: tree roots hold dirt clods in place. Tree roots removed loosen dirt and clods. Rain make dirt mushy. Loose mushy dirt falls off hillside quickly. Houses on hillside no stand no more. DUH!

lookn2share: CS: Change is glorified...and a little change can and is positive. Too much change has literally destroyed our humanity. Think about the incessant EVIL the Internet, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Google, Instagram, Video gaming, (which has and continues to disable our kids, which promotes obesity, and so on). The old saying..."If it ain't broke, don't fix it". My point is, the world was a better place before all these entities 'changed' things for the worse. These things have made us lazier, much less active, destroyed the family, destroyed motivation, destroyed reasoning, transformed hate and so much more. The negatives Far out way the positives! Our existence was much less chaotic and rationality was a thing before all these "advancements". For those who say change is necessary, FU! Doing good is necessary! What all these changes have done is an atrocity!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's not really change, too much of it or too little that's the problem....it's the changes that are being made based on opinions where those opinions are formed without all the facts and sometimes, even when all the facts are to hand...they can often be untrue... so fundamentally it's lack of the truth that's at the root of all the discord...and the resulting chaos...
Look at all the bickering that goes on here.. ..Why is that? It's usually lack of agreement about what's actually true. If everyone had the full set of true facts it'd be hard for them to disagree ..They may not then be equipped to decided how to move forward (change) because they don't know what the truths would be associated with that change..., so a system where all the scenarios of that change are presented and discussed would work a lot better...in fact, any changes that needed to be made would present themselves..

This here place is not just a herd of cattle going in one direction. Bickering has always been here. It’s part of the eco system. Now you take it away completely and this place may well sink. It can’t all be reasonable well thought out arguments. It takes a skilled communicator to defuse or even steer a conversation and keep it on track with nut crackers on here
If people want to talk gibberish let them roll with it.
Same as yourself,
“When the facts change, I’ll change my mind”. An argument in itself.
