I guess that humankind will eventually consume itself to oblivion.
This is a presumption based on observation.
The entire economy is primarily based on consumerism. Issues like global warming and depleting natural resources are being researched and examined in university labs, but they are of little interest to the public or the industries that are primarily focused on enticing people to consume more than ever before.

The open invitation to follow the “success trend” is an irresistible impetus for commercial exploitation. People reach out to the readily available resources of OpenAI for their economic needs and wants.
And because repetitive processes have given legitimacy to exponential growth in the past, the current circular supply chain follows the very same pattern. People reach out to the readily available resources for their economic needs and wants, and there are no boundaries to the ruthless exploitation. The question is, will wisdom prevent the vicious cycle of hyperinflation from recurring?

Try this one, and see if it resonates with some of today’s socio-political situations.
Socrates lived through a period of change in the Athenian empire, from its height to its decline following its defeat by Sparta. Three key figures urged the Athenian public tribunal to investigate Socrates, accusing him of corrupting the religion of the people and the youth of Athens. The Athenians, who still believed in their patron deities, saw the defeat as the result of Athena, the goddess of Athens, wanting to punish the city for its religious decline. Socrates' questioning and discussion of philosophy were considered treasonous. The Athenian Senate voted to sentence Socrates to death. Before the ex*****on, Plato approached him with a plan to escape.
Socrates' response to Plato was: “I can die, but I cannot let democracy die to save my life.”
He ended his life by drinking poison.

A project can only come to fruition when you have strong feelings for it. Not when you do it only to get it done. As the project develops, the mitigating circumstances change, and previous decisions need to be reconsidered. Welcome to the constant uncertainty. No matter where you are or what you do, rethinking is an essential part of making progress. Rethinking is not reserved for people with a high IQ score, nor for those deemed as intellectually gifted. Rethinking should be done by everyone, anywhere, and under any circumstances. You have to set yourself free from the notion of being right all the time, and abandon the obsession of “winning” at all costs. These mental obstacles are blocking you from developing new ideas.

Amicable social coexistence hinges on an acceptable socioeconomic balance.
When the economic conditions become dire for most people, leaders need to find a way out of the disorder that a tittering economy is leaving behind.
Distinguished leaders taught us how to apply effective measures, to manage the three dependencies that every entity depends on: 1. The dependency on the overarching governance. 2. The dependency on collaborators 3. The dependency on people and organizations outside the immediate entity’s structure.
The program, "How to Build Your Business in an Unstable Economy," introduces practical methods for what to do and how to get it done that are applicable in every category.
Every critical change we make goes through a remorse and reprimand thinking process. In some cases, the pressure of these introversions is too much to bear.

I am done following this charade.
So, which charade are you going to follow now?
Confusion about what is happening and a lack of preferences drive us to follow trends. I don’t even know if I like it. But so many people are getting it, so there must be something about it. At least it will add prestige and recognition.
After I tried it, I still don’t know if I like it. I guess everything needs getting used to.

Physicists are trying to explain everything, and so am I, only in a different way.
When a surge of intellectual exploration occurs, it inspires scientists, philosophers, artisans, and naturalists to seek alternative
solutions to prevalent problems.

Propaganda. A collective call to action for a cause.
The existence of propaganda suggests that large-scale operations can only occur with the consent of a significant number of people. Propaganda has always been a tool to convince people of a depicted righteousness. No matter how carefully worded, propaganda is a mind-manipulating tool, designed to persuade people to believe in a presumptive reality. Propaganda aims at achieving a consensus without demanding personal responsibility for the outcome. While the consent will not be unanimous, it usually generates enough support to follow the call.
It seems that economic instability, combined with the expanded communication capabilities, exacerbates the usage of propaganda. When the geopolitical situation gets worse, and people feel the economic pinch, they are more likely to follow the propaganda call. Marketers have long discovered the virtue of propagating popularity.
We need the affirmation of righteousness by joining the decisions made by a large majority or by iconic personalities. This points to the prevailing insecurity. Being part of a consensus is self-reassuring. Moreover, being recognized and mentioned as a follower of a cause has the effect of reassurance that boosts self-esteem. It does not occur to us that in the process, we lose credibility. There is a space in our brain that yearns for the comfort of belonging. And when that space is filled with reassurance, it makes any validation obsolete. We can observe this propagandistic effect on a communal gathering in street demonstrations, where people of all walks of life would proudly hold up a placard with a statement they barely understand. Taking part in a protest for a good cause motivates us to place a selfie on social media to proudly show our allegiance. How can we know for sure that what we are following is indeed a good cause? The absence of critical thinking and the absence of responsibility for the outcomes of that cause is enough to proudly reiterate the slogan of propaganda. But what happens in the mind of a Hamas jihadist operative when he realizes that the only way to survive is to surrender?
Propaganda functions on the principle that "being wrong together is better than being right on our own."
Critical thinking promotes coming up with a solution to a problem, which involves not just having new ideas, but potentially revising previously held beliefs.

When was the last time you licked a stamp?
The last time I took a licking was during the pandemic. Mindsets shifted due to uncertainties about virtually everything. In retrospect, it was the mental kick in the “you know what” that most of us needed to find alternative ways to cope with the imminent changes. It helps to identify, construct, and evaluate arguments, detect inconsistencies and common mistakes in reasoning that solve problems systematically, and importantly, identify and reflect on the justification of my beliefs and values. Critical thinking enables us to reevaluate what we should let go of and what we should do instead. Critical thinking enables us to reevaluate what we should let go of and what we should do instead. The means to preempt and prepare you for the impact of the next socio-economic mayhem.
