Dude becomes a deity, and breaks the cyclical nature of societal decay

2019-09-16 12:51:55 UTC  

Ill put it like this, i think everyone wants to create a paradise for their people in the end

2019-09-16 12:52:09 UTC  

in your view what causes societal decay?

2019-09-16 12:52:16 UTC  

Success

2019-09-16 12:52:26 UTC  

A country grows, exerts its power

2019-09-16 12:52:36 UTC  

It becomes strong and bloated

2019-09-16 12:52:53 UTC  

There are no enemies to keep it on its feet, no outside issue to stimulate change

2019-09-16 12:53:01 UTC  

So all that's left is the occasional reformer

2019-09-16 12:53:29 UTC  

And with its wealth and cradle of power it falls to corruption, or becomes weak in the face of another power due to arrogance

2019-09-16 12:53:31 UTC  

And falls

2019-09-16 12:53:54 UTC  

Such is the cycle of every civilisation

2019-09-16 12:54:02 UTC  

All have gone through it all go through it

2019-09-16 12:54:02 UTC  

GG @Mairon, you just advanced to level 3!

2019-09-16 12:54:12 UTC  

Well except those that get crushed beneath another

2019-09-16 12:54:53 UTC  

This cycle of decay limits greater progress and creates conflict

2019-09-16 12:55:19 UTC  

Out of the ashes of a collapsing civilisation, new ones form, and it puts back development

2019-09-16 12:56:05 UTC  

In ancient Egypt there was a concept called Ma'at it had no real translation, but it's sorta a mix between, divine order, and tranquility, Egypt lasted thousands of years

2019-09-16 12:56:45 UTC  

I want Ma'at for all of humanity, for all time, so that no child ever be plagued by the unjust loss of parents, so that none starve, or needlessly suffer

2019-09-16 12:57:37 UTC  

Tfw i just ranted the fuck out of this channel

2019-09-16 12:57:48 UTC  

Rip LCU

2019-09-16 12:59:05 UTC  

maybe no one starved but people didn't really have that great of lives, slavory was rampant in Egypt

2019-09-16 12:59:53 UTC  

Ma'at was only conceptual in Egypt, and for the ancient Mediterranean they had quite fair lives

2019-09-16 12:59:59 UTC  

Egypt to me was a starting point

2019-09-16 13:00:03 UTC  

Not the destination

also if you think we're in a decay period right now how do you explain technology constantly improving with ever more inovation?

Because we haven't reached collapse yet, we are still in what could be considered the golden era of our civilisations

2019-09-16 13:01:38 UTC  

On the start to decline

2019-09-16 13:01:52 UTC  

There will be more conflict to come, more innovation

2019-09-16 13:02:15 UTC  

What we know will come to fall, but I won't even pretend to have any clue when

2019-09-16 13:02:44 UTC  

very intersting you see it that way, other political ideologies such as neo reactionaries and the alt right would say we're very near collaspse right now, basicaly teatering on the edge
