#Civilization players: if you played both #Civ6 and#Civ7, which one would you keep if you could only keep one?
(Played Civ6 extensively, trying to wonder if Civ7 is worth buying yet)

Oh, and how?

Yeah, 54% of American adults read at the grade 6 level or lower.

This affects critical thinking, moral philosophy, and media analysis skills.

Thanks Reagan.

Wisdom in Space

Today in America -- the child of European imperialism -- a new revolution is rising. It is the revolution of our time. It is the only revolution that involves radical, moral, and practical opposition to the spirit of nationalism. It is the only revolution that, to that opposition, joins culture, economic and technological power, and a total affirmation of liberty for all in the place of archaic prohibitions. It therefore offers the only escape for mankind today; the acceptance of technological civilization as a means and not as an end, and -- since we cannot be saved either by the destruction of civilization or by its continuation -- the development of the ability to reshape that civilization without annihilating it.
-- Jean-Francois Revel

Capitalism has never been a death cult, but a murder cult.

Now it's ramped up with ignorance and fear and the #dunningkrugereffect

In a school in #province of #Alberta, #Canada an assignment was given in which Mustafa Kemal #Atatürk, the founder of the Republic of Turkey, was on the #dictator list.

The school principal acted #irresponsibly and #indifferently despite the #warning of the parents....

A complete proof of true hypocrisy and ignorance of those who call themselves #developed societies...

Shame on you #civilization...

What you call civilization is only a monster with only one tooth left.....

Tech pioneer #JaronLanier argues for a different way to think about #ai One thing I worry about is AI accelerating a trend that digital tech in general — and #socialmedia in particular — has already started, which is to pull us away from the physical world and encourage us to constantly perform versions of ourselves in the virtual world (#avatars). We need a business model for #civilization that isn’t self-destructive.

Avoiding the United States is not just a matter of patriotic principle; it’s a matter of simple safety. Canadians were willing to risk American gun culture, and more. But this American government does not recognize fundamental rights, and you are no longer protected by the law if you set foot in that country. Canada should join other nations in issuing stern travel advisories.

Toronto Star · Bruce Arthur: There’s a terrifying reason to avoid Trump’s AmericaBy Bruce Arthur

Cause information and knowledge are growing exponentially, #schools try to cram facts into the minds of students. The result is that there is less and less room for #understanding, for reflection on the world and the #meaning of life, for an understanding of #nature and #society, for #humanistic #values, for ethics...
Doing so, we are destroying our #culture and #civilization, because culture is nourished by understanding and wisdom, and civilization without understanding becomes uncontrollable.
