The Realm of Ideas.
Change doesn't happen on its own.
One of the greatest of quotes of all time is: "If nothing changes, nothing will change." And this statement, as simple as it might be, is very true.
However, most people have no idea how change actually happens. Or what causes change to happen. They think it's politics, or money, or power, or military capability -- things that do play a role, but aren't fundamental to driving change.
The root cause of any revolution are ideas.
It's not secret that Europe, as a continent, is falling behind. We have near zero innovation, the best talent is leaving to USA, we are flooding the continent with low-quality immigrants, we have high taxes and endless regulations.
In fact, things are so bad that you cannot even vote your way out of this. The culture is rotten to its core.
People are too comfortable. People don't value innovation and invention. People are deceived by the concepts of "equality" and "empathy", both of which are a total mirage.
The public attention is captured by fake manufactured, problems, such as whether Russia will invade the rest of Europe, rather than focusing on real, serious issues, such as the falling birth rates.
Until we fix the underlying philosophy of the continent, until we refactor what society values, what society promotes, what society allows and doesn't allow, no real change will happen.
We need new ideas.
This is the only way forward. There are plenty of billionaires on this Earth who have next to zero real influence. They have zero motion. They cannot impact the direction of the future in any meaningful way, so clearly money alone cannot be the answer.
The battle for the future will be fought on the realm of Ideas.
Ideas that are new, ideas that are energetic, ideas that are refreshing, ideas that are inspiring, ideas that are different.
We must replace the old ideas with the new. No real change will last if you don't fix the values of the people first. And there's a lot of fixing to do.
