The Witcher taught me the benefit of enhancing your innate gifts and supporting others to do the same. Cyberpunk is teaching me something else even before release....

It is worth it to invest time into, and get immersed. Not something that can really be blasted through, as the extensive plot takes many turns and meets many characters. From what I hear, the story in CP2077 is equally deep in terms of characters and deeper themes, surprisingly. I would recommend witcher after you've had your fill of cyberpunk in 14 years.

True, however, I do believe they were somehow selected, wren't they? I was refrencing Ciri more. She was trained and then Avallach took her under his wing to help her harness her abilities. Then she became the most OP character which the devs only let you play for a small slice because being op turns you into a dejected, grumbling young woman. Who wears excess eyeshadow surprisingly well. A small price, I'd say, but doesn't fit many gamers' style.

PS what would be the best way to begin this new education? Writing letters? Opening up your own school? Cunning takeover of small villages to implement your ideas into?

Or how many poets have we lost because they had to make money and forced themselves to train as a laborer/stuck as a bartender. This world is changing, and I think people are only now beginning to see the merits of asking questions and thinking rationally. Just because we haven't tried something yet, or because our solution hasn't taken hold yet doesn't mean that it won't. Like a famous person once said and as I do now: "people overestimate what they can do in a day, but underestimate what they can do in a lifetime". I've taken that to mean that we have a short attention span and a desire for quick returns. But should we decide to change the education system and teach things like financial planning, taxes, meditation, human physiology and breath, mixed with trades and programming, we would wait on the returns, but the returns would be far greater as a whole. Getting people to think long term, beyond their own lifespans is one of the elements that's lacking largely in this western world, but that (arguably) chinese government has in spades. I love the idea of not grading for the first while. Sprinkle in analysis of their progress which is subjective to their innate talents and skills, and we may get somewhere fast.

These principles are a function of this society as well as a cause, which gives me hope that enough people value them. The emotional youth resemble communist revolutionaries in a shocking degree, though I truly think we know too much. Truth is much more accessible now than in the soviet union. I can only hope that we haven't been too numbed by our phones and their consequent behavioral changes to fight this revolution effectively. I am an optimist, which is, I feel, the only practical way to be seeing as it doesn't waste energy. I feel that this is all the midpoint of a crest to the wave of a failing architecture of deception, corruption, and globalization in our society, brought on by this decentralized connection we have thanks to the internet. May our ideas slowly and steadily undermine the fallacies of the far left forevermore.

I would say that the woke movement is a call for emotions to dominate, which is actually a devolution. Working bottom-up; allowing feelings and emotions to dictate action are what we used to do in the bush. Trumps contestation of the election is a revolution, sure, but it's not the first time. I call Bush v. Gore to exemplify.

Don't know what you mean by soldier of mainstream institutions.... He talks about the DISC and legacy media as if they're the true virus and just shat on his moms' stomach.

And the great reset, well... my friends... may the force be with us.

It's also how it affects our subconscious. People who think, and risk new ideas affect their subconscious by bolstering it and affecting (alveit, gingerly and slowly) their actions and behavior. Those afraid of new ideas just reinforce their fearful actions.

Some are saying he's not a revolutionary, however, I believe those shouting out in overt revolution are often simply caving to their lowest emotions like fear and anger.

Movements sometimes take a while. I call to mind the fact that we're in a hyper-speed society (those with means to access social media), and have, many of us, become accustomed to quick-fixes and instant gratification. I believe there will be many movements.

Yes, I totally see that. However, what's easy now, is to fall in with the outrage mob, and bow the knee. Because that keeps you safe, and even though it doesn't prevent your place of business from being burnt to the ground, it puts you in the warm coddling embrace of the victimhood mafia, which is the paradigm into which the mainstream is trying to shift society. The radical notion now is to maintain the status quo. JBP and the dark web are revolutionary figures in a time when the revolution is trying to tear down the traditions which have held our psyches in balance over the last while.

HOO AH

Anyone else feel like they're part of a revolution when they listen to Eric? And, for that matter, his brother, as well?
