(2,557 posts)We DO need a major paradigm shift. We need a society that is not based on violence and the few having power over the many.
Men are not superior leaders...if that was so, then why are we in such a mess? Men have had the leadership reins for several thousand years. I think the evidence speaks for itself, there isn't any need to spin it or broad brush anyone, as my accuser tried to imply. Bluster and ego...that is exactly what it is.
The problem is that the few who wield the power and have the money to buy influence are able to brainwash too many of the rest of us that they will be complete losers if we ever achieve real social justice, etc. It is too bad that those being brainwashed never stop to think about who REALLY benefits when they support agendas to return us to the (mythical) 1950's, or the Dark Ages feudal society they seem to long for. The brainwashed people fail to see how they would benefit in a just and peaceful society.
