We have become encased in the remains of our ideological inspirations as they inform our social and political frameworks. Like ants trapped in an amber we, ourselves emitted, these frameworks are no longer able to support or inspire the forms of change and developmental prowess our lives and situations circa 2013 require.

I must suggest that we essentially cease all criticism of these frameworks. Yelling at boots because they are not wings does not change boots into wings. Our critiques are simply venting the momentum we might otherwise employ to remedy these matters with direct, continuous creative action. They have become part of the anatomy of the problems we face, and when we re-enact them we are nourishing the issues our critiques only pretend to effectively attack.

With these matters clearly in mind, it falls to us to entirely revision and reestablish these frameworks in the image of ideals and necessities that are at once developmentally sound and in harmony with nature, the modern world and the developmental needs and character of our species and intelligence. Instead of critique, we must have mutual intelligence, creativity, action, fellowship, wonder and… movements toward frameworks that empower, rather than punish, the finest aspects of our human lives and potentials – with and for each other and our world.
