"Man cannot believe in something until it scares him. It isn't because he doesn't understand or know to believe, he simply needs to be made to feel some sort of fear for that thing which he should believe in to be worth believing in."- E.**
We are living in an "Avengers-typed world" right now and this brings together all the "superheroes" under a single umbrella despite their differences, preferences, love, race, religion etc to brainstorm and fight the common enemy.
More often than not, we are told not be allowed fear rule us because it will make us not be ourselves, but at the moment, fear has become a unifying factor which sounds good for the safety of the world.
There is never been a better time than that if fear and chaos for the world to unite and this moment is on eos such in history and it will outlive even the anals of history itself.
The strain strains the world.
The Covid-19 pandemic is sweeping the world one city at a time, and leaving a very sad death toll that is been judged the worst global outbreak yet.
How it started is kinda sketchy and we may never know what lead to it and why it was even there in the first place.
Evolution is the true ingredient to life as well as its poison.
When we seek more than we have and work on ideas that innovated, we create monsters by the side which in turn returns to harm.
Are we there yet?
As the world economy crumbles under the Covid-19 strain, the panic and fear it holds is helping everyone see themselves as one.
The world is now a global village where what affects me affects the one I may or may not like.
Many cities around the world is on lockdown (mine included) and we are not sure yet when this will end.
The world is in panic mode and there has never been a better time than now to embrace fear.
In cities like mine where there government is senile and criminally insane, citizens are being forced to stay indoors with no help whatsoever to help them cushion the effects if not being able to work.
The trend from my part of the world is "lockdown to stay alive" and the government is "convenientlyl forgetting that, being lockdown takes more than just locks and keys.
Social distancing, hand washing, mask wearing and the need to stay alive is the order of the day.
Has there been a better time to be scared?
How long are we going to have this lockdown protocols and how long can the people stay sane during this time?
The economy may crash and burn, but it can be revived, but when man crashes and burn, he cannot be revived and that gets me worried.
When are we there?
The pandemic is out of control and has been in most cities and to many others still staying g above waters, fear is what the order if the day is and whether you like it or not, we all have to have that fear to get infected.
Socializing is what has made the world to thrive and since it became a thing to socialize, the world has never found a reason not to, except now.
Is man really reckless and a danger to himself?
I have seen some Hollywood flicks that talks about some aliens or some mad genius talking about saving the world from man.
The story is usually that, "man is reckless and is destroying the world because of his need to be stupid and uncaring for the planet."
Looking at the way this pandemic started from a city in the East, we can be sure man is a self destruct individual with the ability to make his own world unlivable for him and others.
Just my thoughts and the questions are just like...
Should man be subject to control by some higher power so he doesn't put an end to his own life through these reckless acts?
Should man be subjected to a Thanos kind rule where half the world's population is downsized to make way for maybe a better and more reasonable generation?
Can there ever be again a reasonable generation with the introduction of the digital economy?
Fear is the antidote to staying alive and right now, it is what is uniting the world and helping us understand the threat that we may find ourselves.
