I think that Judaism has the same problem that any thick civilization has in a world in which, as you say, context is stripped away.

US & British Colonial Empire based on maintaining war, using Technology, Credit, and Military
- the recipe for centuries depends upon a western colonial monopoly on Technology, Credit and Military superiorities:
Quote:
the way uh the British Empire and then you know the the American Empire have been able to keep the world at war has been by having a monopoly on financial credit on advanced technologies and on advanced weaponry and this has been extremely important to them because you know like if you have those three monopolies then it makes perfect sense for you to keep everybody at war and to keep the world in chaos because you know to wage war one against the other you know Azeran against Armenia and and Turks against the Kurds and Iran against Iraq and Iran against Saudi Arabia and you know everybody against everybody um to be able to prevail in war they have to come to you for the weaponry and for the technology and they have to come to you for credit and so you lend money to the one side you lend money to the other side you sell weapons to the one side you sell weapons to the other side and then when they can’t pay you back then you say like well okay you have some oil underground there so you know why don’t you open your oil resources to our corporations and our banks are going to finance that and so all your wealth is going to be flowing towards our financial centers and so this has been the recipe for the for for for centuries now so now if the if the western monopoly on all those three elements of power are are being eroded I think this is this is making it possible to for for the world to transcend this these centuries of total and non-stop warfare you know we didn’t have non-stop warfare in Europe and the United States but the global south has been constantly and deliberately mired in warfare because the Western colonial powers had the interest in keeping them um insecure uh at war poor and dependent on them and so you know they never built infrastructure for them they never built educational institutions for them ports any of this.

Gus Walz melted hearts at the DNC, putting neurodiversity in the spotlight
