I'll use up one of my three lives to say that - like a cat - I wont put my full weight on what you are hoping to be true. But I can and do leave the future open and hope for a shared waking from a false sense of life to a true by any means - or simply - just because!
I look for healing and correction, not vengeance. That may sound soft and vengeance may seem strong - but only by addressing what is truly here can he find our right place or response to it. Raging at shadows that can never really be eradicated nor need be is futility and vanity in one.
My sense of the old paradigm winding up is of a diminishing turf and thus turf wars. Which could escalate to open wars. I don't see the 'elitists' as being willing to face the consequences of an entanglement in lies and corruption that goes way back and down deep. But at the same time, there is no other path to peace than setting or debts, releasing and finding release. Destruction of our world or our consciousness of it is not an answer, so much as a refusal set in our own terms as some form of 'See what you made me do!'
So I have said that I don't see the globally orchestrated lockdown as a blunder - although many are hapless and easily led. Or already bought, trained and fed.
However at root I see we all make mistakes that became a basis for fear, self isolating and attempt to mask over and control our reality against exposure that damns us. Shakespeare and other Tragicomedies illuminate our archetypal patterns. We cannot be free while trying to escape a mask we made ourself and then suffered at the hand of fate or others.
The willingness to truly address corruption would HAVE to set a new economic and social model. But I do not see those who are active in such corrupt thinking as the ones to set the framing or terms of the new. Nor would it BE new. Nor would it be workable within a new context that they simply cannot control, any more than a boat can control the tides.
There is no going back - and never has been. But the 'normal' is what we are conditioned to expect, to see and to do. Discipline of awakened purpose are 'self-conditioning' in the sense of making new choices to set a new habit in place of an old that has been transformed to the level of choice by owing it. If we do not accept and live our responsibilities - someone else will take over.
Perhaps life is not a destination to survive in or perfect, but a journey of awakening potentials that opens perspective of a presence that we forget, mask over, and believe irrevocably lost.
Zach does touch on this at the end.
