[Rettelse: Jeg hader når jeg en enkelt gang er for hurtig på aftrækkeren - indlægget er
ikke af James' Hughes, men i stedet af Justice De Thezier - beklager]
Jeg faldt over
et indlæg ovre på
James Hughes' Cyborg Democracy blog, og må egentlig erkende at verdenssituationen ser både bedre og dårligere ud end jeg havde regnet med:
"Amazing industrial, technological and electronic revolutions have potentialized humanity's forces of production and have raised it into the realm of abundance. The common good, measured by the capacity to redistribute material goods, is possible for the first time in the history of the world. Numbers presented in the
World Food Report, edited by the
Food and Agrilculture Organization of the United Nations, claim that world agriculture, in the current state of production, without genetically-modified organisms, would be able to feed 12 billion human beings!
But in this moment where humanity has access to the possibility of objectively resolving, at a universal scale, the problem of hunger, we are witnessing
imperialism, the highest stage of capitalism, organized by the appropriation of wealth into the hands of oligarchs while the quest for the common good is relegated to the fringes of utopia."
