Q
If there were a transcendental historical moment in your lifetime, like the abolition of slavery or the enfranchisement of all men and women in a democracy, except whatever that would be for the 21st century (Singularity Bots vs. Post-neurosurgically augmented humans, the abolition of poverty, the overthrow of corporate/banking economic tyrannies in favour of economic democracy and bottom-up community management, or whatever), would you be an active participant?

I think we’re participants of whatever historical moment we happen to occupy, regardless of our desire. As for what I think the 21st Century holds in store for us, I kindly direct you to Cormac McCarthy and James Howard Kunstler.
