BREXIT & HUMANITY YOUTH
Further more the immediate consequences going around the world now, the United Kingdom leave from the European Union sets a stage for various situations to be considered, situations that, in fact, happen in many places on Earth. The first of them would be Populism getting hold of government power, a phenomenon that is fed by a number of variables.
The thing with Populism - understood as unprepared, vain figures who claim to "defend People" - is that those who impersonate it believe to know, learn by heart, or even lie about what should be done, but have little idea of how to do it, the way to handle it or its consequences. Populists - whether they come from left or right - head for power as the panacea that will give solution to every problem (when it comes from the left) or will fill their ego and shortsighted interests (when it comes from the right). In both cases, there are more careless, empty words than accurate, good knowledge. The next variable that goes hand in hand with Populism is a lethal formula set at its roots: ignorance+need. Placing in third or fourth line of priorities the task of preparing a nation´s People is, in fact, a policy that feeds Populism at its basis that are always in need. By inertia, it also keeps in power other forms of ignorance and the old well known self-serving drive. It is this vicious circle running on Earth now for centuries what keeps privileges for some while leaving behind an ignorant+in need majority that can be fuel at will. A vicious circle, which builds the wall that keeps sensible, wise minds always struggling at the edges of power. Wise minds are fighting not only with Populist figures but also with the lack of understanding that sustain them.
At present times, however, two new variables make impossible to do what a UK conservative representative stated on TV these days: go back to how it was 50 years earlier. As it is set, Humanity can only go forwards (to the future) never backwards (to the past). It is not philosophy, it is science. One of the two new variables that have surfaced is the global awareness of a single common thread, and the consequent need to care for the planet, a concept that has no room in populist’s minds because theirs are furnished only with their own belongings. Nevertheless, sensible, wise minds have already launched action on this matter, an action led by an obvious, efficient tool: team work, working together, an efficient tool that Populists and those behind them in the shadows want to break for one single reason: the strength of their basis is made of division and lack of understanding. This lethal formula has created all along history highly inequitable state of society in the world and the notion that it "will always" be. Not this time.
Now, ruthless, insensible, unwise, selfish rule will lead Humanity to a disaster that, as it is set and should it happen, cannot go backwards, cannot be unmade. The only way with it is to prevent it. This is a fact that many people on Earth have already understood, and here is where the second wonderful new variable surfaces: Humanity Youth. Of all information given these days about Brexit, the saddest of all is British youth being put down, dragged to division and isolation by an irresponsible political move figured out by adults taking a short step in power. Elections in America also have the youth as a vital engine aware of the need for further change. Humanity Youth: it is about their vision, it is about their need, it is about their drive, it is about their life! It is their RIGHT. When in a few years from now Populists are retired enjoying the wealth they managed to acquire, Humanity Youth will be struggling with the mess they left behind. So, here also, the only way with it is to prevent it, and the Millennium minds are to find the way. It is a new Millennium and it is theirs.
A time for breaking frontiers of thought, for creativity and innovation not towards individual gain but towards COLLECTIVE SALVATION. Humanity Youth, its fresh, brilliant mind, must find a way through in order to get their vision into power. A way that is never violent, history has it clear, violence only speeds any nation´s doom. New, practical, frontiers-breaker, creative ways that forge the path for their new awareness to prevail in a globalized, connected World. Understanding at the basis is a must. Keep up Humanity Youth!! Keep up! It is your time, it is your life. And know that all around there are many, many ready to help you. After all, your are Humanity sons and daughters, our children and your are loved.
