the upcoming "PROGRESS versus the PLANET" conflagration...


I think MODERNITY BITES !, that it is literally killing us and this planet.

 The apogee of MODERNITY was expected to be WWII. And from 1939 to 1942 that was indeed the case.

 But starting in late 1942, I think we can see that NATURE BITES BACK.

High Modernity may have started the war convinced that Nature had been conquered and was about to be soon replaced by human Synthetic Autarky and that only human Tiger tanks and human Typhoon planes were to be feared. But by the end, more and more people had lost their naive faith in Scientism and were beginning to accept that humanity was thoroughly entangled with both the Nature of plants, animals & microbes as well as the Nature of so called “lesser” humanity. By 1965, the world was definitely entering the Age of Entanglement. Billions still believed - at least in part -with the promises of High Modernity but intellectually & emotionally, it was no longer dominant...
