If it’s inaccessible to the poor then it’s neither radical nor revolutionary

💯 and why right-wing slogans like MAGA and Brexit's 'take back control' point to the past - it doesn't require them to actually create a future vision. and also why art, music and joy are so important rn. this tendency to think analysing information or getting more data will save us is missing out developing imagination and creativity to allow people to have the capacity to hold a different future and not passively accept what's dictated by tech companies. 🎀

You really need to look into what China is doing. While the west is eating itself for profits, China is actually building future.

I can strongly recommend "utopia for realists" by Rutger bregman. He faces exactly that topic that we lost to dream about a better future. Really amazing book ✨

It may sound defeatist. But I think a larger problem is that despite the increase in social awareness, introspection and critical analysis without cognitive dissonance is still at an all time low. People may not like the way things are, but they’re unwillingly to change the things that ‘feel’ like comfort. We need to find a way to incite initative and curiosity for what the future holds. Otherwise, we’re going to be another era that falls into ruin. Only problem is we have very few relatable examples of an equal, equitable, and the potential for a utopian future. Consumerism has really got us in a chokehold, I fear.

“futurism” as an aesthetic is also just an idea from like 60s / 70s Hollywood thinking about the 21st century as a concept - flying cars, living in space etc…now we’re in 2025 and that’s clearly not the reality it’s irrelevant - we’re post-futurism

We need to get back to analog. We own NOTHING anymore yet we pay higher & higher prices for everything. Just think about music. If they take away Spotify or the internet- we got nothing.

that's why young people today are not excited about "the future" because it has stopped meaning political change and now just means buying more junk

all rooted back to consumerism & this technofeudalist era we’re in. we have no codes, ethics, principles & posture as if, that’s why it’s hard to practice futurist ideals centred around people & society outside the context of big tech.

Great post - and the only future we’re told about in movies/books etc are dystopian or nihilistic. We need stories about a bright future where we’ve left neoliberalism behind, plant planet, carless = careless (no hydrocarbons) and rewild, nurture nature. We can, we must. Keep it up. 💪👍❤️

Great video and great comments section! But also, how on earth do you manage to make such an in depth analysis while just casually walking down the road? I can barely hold my ideas in my brain whilst sitting in a chair!!

museum of the home in hoxton has a room called “home of the future” and it has products made by innovation design students. it really encapsulated everything you’re talking about

that reminds me of this YouTube video about how tech is being used to make us feel like we're progressing when in reality we are still operating with archaic structures (colonialism, yt supremacy etc)
