Language & Its Interpretation
Language & its interpretation by its users frequently creates vocabulary choices that represent opposite values, feelings, beliefs & points of view depending upon the author/speaker & their intended contextual meaning. (CONTEXT)
These words, when applied to history within any society, achieve added significance as they become the foundational vocabulary & active voice of its so-called democratically elected lawgivers. A facetious outcome that begs the Truth of Fairness of the Market-driven Cartels that dictate how their Wealth is managed (abused) to retain their sustained control over the working poor. In society.
Fluddites realize that this reality has varying degrees of importance individually until it becomes the Language of our elected leaders & the non-government, multimedia AI distributors of the Truth for its citizens whereas the Fluddite, MAYBE approach with a “What if…” outcome challenges this contrived monopolistic messaging. Money Talk cannot afford an alternative voice where Language reaches an under-privileged Majority encircling the Pyramid of Power & Authority with a new, progressive alternative, not unlike the Medicine Wheel of generational changes in the fluxible future of our survival on Earth. continued

Then & Now: Revolution and Technology, Power & the Economy
Historically, in the 19th.c with the emergence of the Industrial Revolution an abrupt change occurred across the world & the gaps between the wealthy owners and the workers created an environment where exploitation, child labour, poor working conditions, extreme poverty, famine, disease, slavery, slum housing, debtors’ prisons & enforced capital punishment prevailed. Capitalism for the working poor meant hardship and penury.
It led to the redistribution of the population from the rural villages & farms to the new expanding industrial factories with inner-city slum-filled neighbourhoods for the factory working poor. A new class had emerged of poorly organized industrial workers, toiling in factories for six days & long hours weekly for a mere pittance if they ever reached adulthood. Vastly different from the local, agricultural communities with their farm workers harvesting the land & residing in the small villages & towns before new machine technology became an expanding Industrial Revolution where mass production replaced traditional occupations, such as textile workers, with quotas, exhausting hours & frequent life-threatening injuries. We do not need a reminder that these conditions were the new reality because Charles Dickens’ novels are still a part of our literary history that vividly describes the Truth that his characters represent. You might have seen the movie, a TV series or the musical adaptations of Oliver Twist, Scrooge, David Copperfield, or A Tale of Two Cities.
But just ask yourselves whether you, your family or close friends are live examples of the new Revolution that is challenging your survival!
MAYBE it is time to follow the Fluddite philosophy that encourages the creation of Communal Partnerships that you can respect & share with others. continued.
The Fluddite Community reminds its participants that regardless of our titles and backgrounds, we serve and demonstrate civility always. We leave our Ego at the door; we listen carefully & decide to share our ideas upon a level playing field.
“We are our possibilities everchanging, changed.”
An historically learned and updated philosophy that becomes a Circle of Possibilities which recognizes CHANGE, but still challenges the decisions (of the few) for us to live up to upon its creation. We are a community of FRIENDS best shown as a Circle of Partners who work within an organizational model as equals who use a cooperative MAYBE as our template to facilitate equality on a caring and sharing Planet. Again, we are reminded that the Medicine Wheel & the Dream Catcher are worthy symbols that my Fluddite Friends readily endorse and respect.
