I am so tired of watching Aussie TV channels. No quality material and full of shitty content. For even news- 9news, 7news, ABC all kept going on about Taylor swift all day. No quality news reporting at all. Thanks to YouTube , my go to channel for news now is DW and France 24. European channels are the best in my opinion.

    More realities is better. Or ideally we would do away with the concept of reality altogether and just have unreal worlds.

    If you’re uncomfortable with people being in different realities you just have to practice planeswalking more. It’s not hard. Diversity is good actually. Letting Capital have absolute control over the means of reality is bad.

      Diversity is good individually, helps us form balanced opinions. But having radically polarised individuals, with diverse and different views is bad for social harmony.

        For the last 500 years, “harmony” meant everyone does things the way white people do it. It meant bringing the monarchy to Australia, binary gender to Thailand, slavery to America, christianity to Colombia, oil rigs to the middle east, and a lot of other bad stuff. I think it was better to have a lot of different consensus realities across the world, instead of one homophobic capitalist christian white supremacist consensus reality.

        The modern phenomenon of conspiracy theories and echo chambers is just a symptom of consensus reality breaking down as it fails to meet everyone’s needs, and they look elsewhere. It’s an unstable, dangerous state, brought on by unstable, dangerous consensus reality. It wouldn’t have got this bad if it weren’t for the genocide of indigenous realities.
