For the Next Millenium

 

Homework for humanity to work on for the next millennium, preferably the coming centuries:


A New Ideology

  • Institution of the 'Imperial Truth' as the official ideology of the United Nations and Humanity. Its key tenets are: Anti-theism, materialism, anthropocentrism, internationalism and utilitarianism. 


Towards Unification

  • All countries will be forced to pay a tax to the UN equating to around 1% of their GDP which will go to the UN Treasury. This will be enforced by the UNSC who will determine how to spend it. 
  • Formation of the CANZUK Union, consisting of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and South Africa. Formation of the Moscow Federation, consisting of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. Centralization of the European Union into the European Federation. Formation of the Republic of South Asia, consisting of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Burma.
  • The UNSC must always consist of the 6 most powerful countries in the world. Which would be: the United States, People's Republic of China, CANZUK Union, Moscow Federation, European Federation, Republic of South Asia.
  • The UNSC would have the authority to declare a country as an enemy of humanity. Which would obligate all neighbouring countries to attack it. If the neighbouring countries fail to obey, the UNSC would go to war with all of them. Nothing on Earth can stand against the combined might of the US, China, CANZUK, Moscow, EF, and India. Afterwards, the UNSC can decide to either establish a government of their choosing in position or annex it under UN administration.  
  • All conflicts whether international or local/civil are subject to UNSC arbitration Should a country refuse to accept UNSC’s decision, it automatically becomes an enemy of humanity.
  • Reduce the number of tiny nation states on earth by allowing larger countries to absorb them or bring them under direct UN administration. 
  • Only UNSC countries are now allowed to possess nuclear weapons.
  • The UNSC must use a portion of the UN treasury to fund a renewed space program.
  • Hopefully lead to the unification of all humankind under the banner of the UNSC within a few centuries. 
  • Rename Earth to Terra.


Energy and Corporations:

  • By UN mandate all countries must nationalise companies which provide basic necessities such as electricity, internet, water, energy, steel etc and ensure that their citizens always have access to them. 
  • Internationalise (place under UN authority) non-essential but ludicrously powerful and influential companies like Amazon, Facebook, google, apple, Microsoft etc. 
  • Invest in nuclear research and adopt nuclear fission as humanity's primary energy source until nuclear fusion becomes viable.

Against Xenophobia: An Argument For Immigration

Against Xenophobia An Argument For Immigration     Introduction I doubt it has escaped anyone's attention that recent years have seen a surge in anti-immigrant sentiment across the world. In this article I seek to go against what appears to be a dominant narrative where often both sides of the political spectrum operate on the assumption that immigration should be considered a net negative and viewed with suspicion.   Often when anti-immigration politicians or political commentators use the words 'immigrant' or 'immigration' they often tend to conflate what are really different, distinct groups. Mainly, refugees, expatriates, international students and actual immigrants. For the purposes of this article, I am willing to engage them with their own definitions of the terminology. Consequently, my argument will refer to all of the different kinds of foreign individuals enumerated above. Furthermore, due to me being the most familiar with the situation in the United Kin

A New Faith

  A New Faith Was the new imperial religion a net negative for the Roman civilization? Introduction This write up aims to critically analyse the impact of the abrahamic religion on the trajectory of the Roman Civilization (~753 BCE - 1453 CE) and make an argument for why I believe it to have ultimately been a net negative. It is worth noting that historian Edward Gibbon had also made a similar case when he first wrote his seminal work 'The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire' (1776 CE). However, it is now considered by many to be outdated and operating on faulty assumptions, though I believe it still has some merit, on the whole I admit that it is a flawed assessment. I seek to articulate a more modern position based on new research as well as my own logical analysis of the circumstances of the empire and how its new faith influenced its decision-making for the worse. The body of this essay will be divided into three sections. The first would explore my primary argument, that

Stigma Against Anti-Theism

  Stigma Against Anti-Theism   In this post I am not referring to the fear and hatred theists harbour towards anti-theistic ideas. That is only natural and the expected outcome. No, what I find particularly irksome regarding opposition to religion is that often the most vocal defenders of maintaining the 'sacrosanct' status of it are fellow atheists. It is disheartening to witness some atheists criticizing their peers for being 'edgy' or disrespectful when it comes to challenging religious beliefs. Anti-theists are often seen as too strident, or aggressive, even at times accused of being no better than the fundamentalists whose influence we seek to combat. I find it difficult to understand why the god claim must be given any more reverence than other entities which most would freely admit are entirely fictional. Why must deities be treated with any more seriousness than Harry Potter, the God-Emperor of Mankind, Godzilla, or the flying spaghetti monster? While some may a

A Defence of AI

 A Defence of AI This post aims to address the most common concerns that are usually brought up regarding the development of artificial intelligence systems. The points that I seek to refute are: the derivative nature of AI generated content and the risk of theft, dangers of deepfakes, job loss, artificiality and soullessness of AI generated content, and being used solely for profit and the benefit of monopolistic corporations. For the sake of efficiency, I am assuming that the reader is familiar with these arguments and will not elucidate them here. In the eventuality that this is not the case, here is a link to an AI generated summary of them. Firstly, I shall confront the notion that since all AI generated content is trained on a set of data whose creators may not have consented to it being used for that purpose, it should then be considered an imitation of their work and therefore theft from them. While it is admittedly true that all such content is to some extent derivative and e

The Komnenos Restoration

The Komnenos Restoration Research Question: To what extent was the Komnenos dynasty (1081- 1185 CE) successful in restoring the Roman Empire following its decline in the eleventh century? Word Count: 3987 Word from the author: This analysis is somewhat outdated and based on obsolete ideas and research. However, it still has some valid arguments that are well presented while the remainder may prove persuasive to others even if they no longer convince me, so I feel it is worth uploading. Contents Introduction: 2 Body: 4 Treaty with Venice: 4 Reforms of Alexios I: 5 The policy of vassalization: 6 Failure to reconquer Anatolia: 8 Impact of the crusades: 10 Diplomacy with the Crusader States: 11 Failure to secure substantial gains under Manuel I: 12 Conclusion: 13                               Introduction: This essay will analyse the impact of the factors which played a part in shaping the course of imperial history under t
