Yes, I thought about that Kathleen and had amended my prediction to 'well-into the community rebuilding phase.' I started writing my book back in 2012 as A 2020 Vision: the Economics of Community. And I reserved the domain name, which I still have, of a2020vision.org.
But then I realized that I needed the story of the undoing first so wrote How to Dismantle an Empire as the first in that series. 2020 was the beginning of the unravelling, as you so succinctly put it in Weaving.
The acceleration of destruction seems like they're throwing caution to the wind and desperate to get in as much as they can before people catch on. Things are coming to a breaking point of the illusion. And I do think 2025 will be the pivot point.
But if I were planning the community side of it, I'd recommend five years where people stay put--universities serve students who live at home, tourists make the place they live somewhere people want to visit, the homeless go to where they were born or where they have family, recent migrants return to countries from which foreign-owned corporations have been expelled.
We're changing the trajectory of the last 4000 yrs at least. I think we should give ourselves 5 years to come out of the daze and get to know the people around us and make our plans as a community. Just my thoughts.
That makes sense to me! And I agree, even with 5 years and the incredible changes coming, that's still quite fast. I'm not good at predicting time things take. Despite the time-speeding up feeling many of us have - in other ways, paradoxically, it feels incredibly slow. By now I imagined normies mostly aligned and accountability on the table. My sweet-summer child bit, as Sage calls it. Thanks, Tereza.
Come on, Tereza, 2025...maybe 2026. (Our reset is faster than THEIRS.)
Let's put that out in the universe too.😃
