"Signs of the times" of a dominant civilization (Marco Emanuele)

Crystallization of thought, elimination of  possible alternatives in our history, homogenisation of the aspirations, extensive presence of certain models of life in our time. These are, for me, the "signs of the times" of a dominant civilization; this practice needs a linear thought, a thought that does not lead us to knowledge but that leave us "prisoners" of informations that does not allow us to understand the dynamic truth of reality. Thus, for example, we do not reflect on the complexities that surround us, reducing human processes in media phenomena without life. What we see every day seems almost inevitable; the tragedies of entire peoples as byproducts of the undisputable choice of a "not global" globalization.
