Ukraine should propose a better dream of peace if Ukrainians want to survive as a nation. For example. Russian Federation should be transformed into a confederation like the European Union. Ukraine should be transformed into a federation like the United States of America or the Federal Republic of Germany. Russia should invite a lot of immigrants from Mexico. Ukraine should invite a lot of immigrants from India. Russia should get rid of its nuclear weapons. Russia and Ukraine should become members of NATO. Something like that.

The personal policy of 60-70 percent of the human adults on Earth is fascism (paranoia, fatalism, blue stage in the Spiral Dinamics gradation) or even ultrafascism (sociopathy, red stage in the Spiral Dinamics gradation).

Historians spend too much time studying war conflicts but pay little attention to peaceful times. That's why they understand neither peaceful times nor wars.

C. M. Kosemen reminds me of Buddha, Plotinus, Shelling, Nikolai Berdyaev, John Williams, David Bowie and the many others wise smart heroes with a sincere (Turquoise in the Spiral Dinamics classification) personal policy. All that people are not existentialists (as for me), but I highly admire them nonetheless. And I love book "All Tomorrows" of Kosemen: one of the best sci-fi books I have ever read.

A philosophical (or existential) crisis is not a situation when I can`t answer a question that bothers me. It`s a situation when I can`t even formulate a question that bothers me. Something like a great unclosed gestalt.  

All revolutionary political events in human history happened before the death of Siddhartha Gautama: almost nothing in politics has changed during the last 25 centuries. The same hypocrites as Aristotle, the same cynics as Jesus Christ, the same paranoid fascists as usual astrologists, the same sociopathic ultrafascists as usual pedophiles. New cultures, new technologies, same policy, same suffering. But what if genetic engineering gives us better brains and endless youth? Will we become more conscious? Will we suffer less?

It`s impossible to be happy if I am unconscious: foolish and evil. It`s unlikely to be happy if I am ill, poor, and infamous.
