Yes, I am ... ( 4 days ago by ElysiumFilms)
Yes, I am advocating an elite rule. There is nothing conspiratorial about it. As a matter of fact, nearly every philosopher in history has discredited democracy.
The only bonus is ... ( 4 days ago by sd06ds)
The only bonus is that lower class people are easy to control especially when they're extremely religious and/or uneducated. However the catch is that you have to have the right person leading. That's the hard decision to make. If you look at the middle east you have whole scores of people being led like sheep by religious leaders in self destructive patterns. Same with the religious right in the states. We need a consensus of world leaders to advocate a global change.
Most leaders today ... ( 4 days ago by ElysiumFilms)
Most leaders today are puppets for some interest whether it is the interests of foreign countries, lobbies, or particular people.
Look back at a more innocent and natural time for leadership if you want proper examples. This would be prior to 1900 at the very least.
I'd agree with you ... ( 4 days ago by sd06ds)
I'd agree with you on leaders being puppets, however the puppeteers are usually major corporations. I think our biggest hope for the survival of the world is that nuclear war is not good for business. Major companies want globalisation to occur so they can make more money, so the lobby groups will support this position. I don't see another major war on the horizon, the only real factor now is pollution and extremism. These are the major risks. If we get a religious zealot with a nuke, watch out
If you believe in ... ( 4 days ago by ElysiumFilms)
If you believe in such things then you also believe that these groups control the media and thus your perception of life. The "religious zealot" statement confirms that they have influenced your thoughts well. It does not matter if something is nuked or just blown up, it can benefit them if they want it to.
I know a limited ... ( 4 days ago by sd06ds)
I know a limited nuclear war could happen, but a global nuclear war that would destroy human civilization probably won't. It's not in the interest of the countries who could do it. Limited warfare is profitable for them, a global nuclear one isn't. I don't think that if we make it to the next level we would recognize the new order of things, however it would be better than the alternative of anarchy.
Yes, I agree that ... ( 4 days ago by ElysiumFilms)
Yes, I agree that only limited nuclear warfare is beneficial - perhaps as a precedent for a new policy, war, or such.
Lol i wouldn't say ... ( 4 days ago by sd06ds)
Lol i wouldn't say beneficial in the true sense of the word, but it could help them achieve their means. It's sad that we're so cynical. I have faith in humanity to improve itself in the future, I hope my trust isn't misplaced.
I have no faith! :- ... ( 4 days ago by ElysiumFilms)
I have no faith! :-)
When this age ends a new age will come. The transition always results in loss of human life.

I don't agree in a coupleof points.
1st he says that the culture of our civilization would be blue jeans, then he says the terrorists would be intolerants etc...
I could disagree more, our worldhas already many civilizations, he is the intolerant that pretends to eliminate all those civilizations to create one (english speaking). If there is a path to 0-1 CIVS then it has not been properly described by Mr.Kaku. The ones pretending defend their culture are terrorists in this description.
yeah, on the ... ( 2 days ago by Stagolee22)
yeah, on the surface it seems like that, but he's sort of right. As an American, I lived in Europe for a while. All the students I met spoke English, and there were several American/English cultural institutions in place there, e.g. movies, music, media, companies. There will not be one monolithic culture,but more like an over-culture, which everyone has contact with, then smaller unique sub-cultures of regions. Compare your state's culture with the broader American one. It's the same concept.

Terrorism is not ... ( 1 day ago by sd06ds)
Terrorism is not the way you defend your culture. Culture is not something to be preserved at all costs either. It evolves and changes over time. Trying to make it stay the same ignores all the natural laws and will result in nothing but trouble. Culture is constantly changing and embracing that change is the only way forward, trying to hold on to the past will merely result in you being left behind.

Listen. This is a person who got very far reading and regurgitating. I used to respect this man but what he says in this video is Garbage. This is not our future. Hollywood is not the reason our consciousness evolved past animal nature. We are on the verge of the next evolution of mind. This guy, should write fiction for our entertainment. Oregon trail is more truthful than this gentleman.
