Hell on earth - is there any hope?

Not sure exactly how accurate this is, but I read somewhere that if all arable land was divided equally between every person on the planet, we would each get half an acre.

Wouldn’t that be cool?

But sadly it is quickly reducing. Not so much because of population growth, but thanks to our unaccountable economic system and its need for constant growth, which is destroying that land via extremely destructive (and inefficient) agricultural practices; (in order to produce unhealthy, poisoned food that we are then manipulated into consuming, so that big food corporations can profit and the economic growth continues, whilst making us sicker and sicker - though we are kept alive with more and more drugs from the profit-needing pharmaceutical corporations, 'Big Pharma').

Incredibly destructive, bloody imperial interventionism/economic terrorism is waged to advance that economic system and to destroy alternative systems that threaten it.

Ugh. How did we manage to create such hell on earth?

I say ‘we’, but really it’s a very small number of people who did this and who perpetuate it. The neoliberal capitalist system rewards and empowers the worst of us, who then manipulate enough of the rest of us into keeping them empowered.

Hopefully we are becoming less easily manipulated. And hopefully we are waking up to the propagated, and dangerous, narrative of individualism; and realising instead that we are all connected; that we are all one; that one person's happiness and fulfillment is dependent on everyone else's, and on the health of the natural environment.

Hopefully those powerful few are becoming mindful as to what they're doing to the planet and using their power to enact massive system change as a result.

But I can’t help feeling that if this was going to happen, it would have happened by now, and we’d have had the change we need long ago - to create a system that works in harmony with nature; to put people and planet before corporate profit.

Instead, the elites are building bunkers, as they get ever richer from the burning of the planet. And we continue to reject the change we need, at the ballot box.

Our only hope is that enough of us can wake up and see through the constant manipulation. All we can do is continue trying to inform, unite, resist and revolt. Protests all around the world right now should give us some hope. We need a new system, now! We need revolution!
