I hope things will change but do they? Did imperialism end? Did empires end? Did colonization really end? Slavery? No, it just changed forms, a shackle in new colours. Even if the west was the fall tomorrow the middle east became somehow the new dominant region, with the trauma they faced, would they be any better (hypothetically) I worry for our species as I feel like we're bomb ourselves before we reach true mastery of this earth or use that mastery to enforce an even wider and more ruthless class system

same here; i'm started reading theory (partially) in the hopes of finding something that suggests that we won't bomb or climate change ourselves out of existence.

I have a book for you my friend, it's called humankind. While these wars are making me lose hope again, this relative cutting age history book (cutting age as in new research used in book rather than decade old and often outdated research ) that argues and shows the beauty of our species. I need to read it again, because I'll be honest I'm losing hope again in humanity Humankind: A Hopeful History https://g.co/kgs/BrbMWsC
