World Government Discussion
Posted: Sun Oct 11, 2009 8:10 am
ATTENTION: Why this is NOT a conspiracy theory discussion:
All the relevant NWO theories are based on the fact that this looming World Government will inheritly be totalitarian, opressive, exploitative and dystopian.
Let us here recognise the fact that this is not necessary so.
Fact is that it`s nowhere set in stone a more just economic system cannot ever be fathomed, or that the current one cannot be "softened up".
Fact is that there are several forms of valid democratic representation systems and into that ties the fact that a system you do not agree with is not thereby undemocratic due to just that.
Fact is also that there are allready continents united in what can be classified as a democratic unions by any reasonable and objective standard.
Fact is the track record of these unions has shown increased prosperity and liberty for their respective citizens as opposed to their previously divided state(s).
Now: No selfrespecting NWO conspiracy theorist would forget to mention Orwells 1984 as a reference to the grim future in store for us if we travell down this path.
Yet humorously, what is 1984 but a caricature of the world of national states brough down to 3 members? States of people indoctrinated into their "nationality", whith external enemies around it that facilitate/justify the ever eternal growth/recession cycle of their economies/societies.
It is a world that stopped one step short of world government.
Now through historycall analysis we can determine that human social and state stuctures have a tenency of gravitating together as the benefit of cooperation and coexistance outweighs furter tribe/city/kingdom/state/nation rivalry - And with advent of ever more elaborate means of destruction and codependance that rivalrly became completley cost in-effective.
There is a trend apparent which seems to suggest regional and global unification is the next logical and inevitable step in our social evolution as a species. And as darwins survival of the fittest is hardly applicaple in a world able to destroy itself, reasonable steps of cooperation and peacefull integration seems to be the only option left on the table.
We know from the sintesis of the "american nation" and to a degree "europeans" that such a feat is possible, given certain outside influences to speed it up, in as little as a few hundred years. Short of an alien invasion (lol), we`re likely looking at a longer process, yet one the is possible.
Now, looking back on our history, can we honestly say national countries are a facilitator and garant of prosperity for human kind and that the alternatives would "doom" us? We can perhaps make the claim for the handfull of nations that "floated to the top", but to extrapolate it further? Hardly.
So taking this into consideration: What plausible, objective and reasonable reason can we give, as to why national states should not potentionally, one day, be condemned to history, say allongside city states, to one day be replaced by a democratic & HR respecting "world government"? Surely if half a billion people can make it work on a scale of a continent, there is no reason why several billions could not make it on the entire globe, given obvious adjustments lol.
Is there any valid reason king Leonidas could have given, that would make sense to the modern day Greeks?
(meaning: try to transcend our local POV that obviouslly cannot phathome the "injustice/inphatomability" of one day not identifying our nationality/citizenship as the utter apex and the preciouss "home/father/motherland". Why should humans one day not think of eachother as citizens of earth as opposed to clinging to "artificial" divisions that would seem to hold us back?)

And if millions don`t want it, I`m sure millions allso think that petty thieft ought be negligable. But we`re in a society that has rules and if everyone agreed on them we wouldn`t need them in the first place.
