Goodness must drown the noise of infamy.
The world is smaller now. It is more interconnected. Information travels faster and, in theory, it should be easier to assess and access. The world should be wiser and safer now.
Ironically, the world feels more dangerous now, at least from here. Not only has it become more cynical and absurd, it has also become harder to understand. We understand a phenomena as long as we can ascertain its properties and qualities. We need to be sure that we have is what it is or is said to be. Nothing seems to be what it is anymore. Nothing can be taken at face value. No truth can be fully determined now; not with so many infamous networks tuning their armies of human and digital robots towards the creation of a dystopic reality.
This reality starts as virtual, but eventually becomes a physical one. This reality is backed up by networks of allies who can attest to your dissociation if you dare to question the veracity of their fabrications. Your perception of the world is now mediated by networks of infamy.
Truth may be difficult to assess now more than ever; however, now more than ever, evil is easier to spot. It does not come in specific colors, shapes, or languages. It just smells like extreme. It swaggers right and left and it always supports injustice. The new world calls for new networks made of old-school balance. There is still goodness in this strange world, but it needs to be interconnected. Goodness needs to resonate with a sounder echo. It needs to drown the noise of infamy.
