"...make up your own mind."
In the final analysis, we must consider our perceptions in the light of our beliefs, and I have learned that I must wrassle my hubris in order to refrain from insisting my views are the ultimate truth. I know they cannot be, because I am fooled.
The EU is interesting, and may well transform cosmology and the technology humanity develops going forward. Sadly, I reckon humanity is about to regress technologically due to the imposition of totalitarian tyranny and repression of factual information necessary to malignant overlords to succeed in that endeavor.
I have a tight attention budget due to these constraints and exigent circumstances that threaten my life, community, and the felicity of my people. I dare not focus on fascinating cosmology while faced with the necessity of survival, particularly as I am a glacially slow thinker and mathematically incompetent to become expert at physics.
It's not sexy, but I need to learn to grow potatoes.
I appreciate your kind consideration and provision of useful information that I hope I can wrap my head around, sooner than later.
