Are you addicted to THE FUTURE? I already know that you are. You don't think so? I'm here to tell you that you ARE... we ALL are! How do you get free from the addiction? (And believe me, you do want to walk away from THE FUTURE.) thefuturesschool.medium.com/the-future-i...

THE FUTURE is a Hell of a Drug

(Stick with me; this is going somewhere important, and there’s a method to the madness.)

To be clear: Musk, Altman, Bezos, Zuckerberg, Thiel, etc. are pathological.

"Coloniality and Capitalism have castrated our imagination and hope so that we cannot co-create with liberated, living futures." • All we ever have is relationship. • Modernity castrates our imagination and hope for alternative realities. • Capitalism hates when we are “futures promiscuous.”

What does it mean to let go of the known, the certain, the familiar, the steady, the sure, and to launch into the unknown, the unraveling, and the unweaving where life truly exists?

Great example today of how, like data, trends are in the eye of the beholder and we can make them say anything we want them to say. During a client interview today I was confidently told about a “trend” straight out of the playbook of the patriarchy that is the opposite of the broader zeitgeist.

If foresight is about perceiving alternative possibilities, why do we say the future is a seed in the present? If foresight is defined by imagining alternatives, why use it to uphold present systems? Since our present systems have utterly failed us, why wouldn’t foresight challenge those systems?

The Coming Purge Historically, one of the first actions authoritarian regimes take when consolidating power is to target intellectuals—writers, artists, academics. In the US, the signs of the coming purge are already here. Intellectuals should be aware. My first Bluesky thread follows 🧵 /1
