Embracing Post-Ego: A Path Beyond the Fermi Paradox
Written on
Understanding the Fermi Paradox
One intriguing explanation for the Fermi Paradox, which questions the absence of extraterrestrial life, revolves around the concept of a singularity—an event that annihilates advanced societies repeatedly. Essentially, across the cosmos, there have likely been numerous alien civilizations that, much like humanity, developed nuclear fission technology and subsequently faced their demise due to it.
The comprehension of nuclear fission seems inevitable for any civilization reaching a certain level of scientific advancement, similar to the progress made on Earth approximately a century ago. This destructive capability, particularly through nuclear weapons, offers a stark reason for the absence of alien life; they may have perished due to their own technological advancements and the resultant madness of leaders reminiscent of Vladimir Putin, who appears intent on global destruction.
The Roots of Aggression
Every technologically evolving society, whether it originates from primates or other intelligent species, carries the remnants of primal aggression from its evolutionary history. Regardless of their location in the universe, these advanced societies invariably succumb to the singularity due to their predatory instincts. The question arises: how can a species equipped with 14,000 nuclear weapons possibly survive? The answer is, it cannot.
Repeatedly, history has shown that a figure akin to Putin appears in advanced civilizations, leading to their downfall. As technology progresses, so too does its potential for destruction. The mathematical relationship illustrating this inevitability is compelling:
In this chart, point A reflects the probability of civilization extinction, while point B denotes technological advancement. Notably, the threshold of 5 indicates a point beyond which survival becomes increasingly unlikely, and we find ourselves precariously close at 4.99999999.
A Glimmer of Hope: The Concept of Post-Ego
Yet, amid this bleak scenario, there exists a sliver of hope—a one in a trillion chance termed "Post Ego." The very science that illuminated the nuclear chain reaction also provides insight into the ego. Notably, the aggressive tendencies associated with figures like Putin stem from this construct of the ego, which science suggests is merely an illusion. The notion of Putin's “self” or “soul” lacks substance; these are empty concepts.
Imagine a society enlightened enough to recognize and transcend the delusions of their egos. Would such a civilization be able to navigate the singularity?
Reasons for Pessimism
However, if such an enlightened society existed, we might expect them to traverse the cosmos, imparting wisdom and guiding others past the singularity. Yet, as Fermi speculated, our universe lacks this diversity of extraterrestrial life.
Reasons for Optimism
On a brighter note, individuals who have attained a post-ego state often report a significant reduction in their propensity for conflict. This is because the primitive, ego-driven instincts that seek confrontation are overshadowed by a desire for peace and cooperation.
The Call to Action
The paramount focus must be on dedicating our lives to the post-ego movement. Why? Because the failure of this endeavor could spell doom for all of us. Our dreams and aspirations would be crushed if we do not succeed. Only through a collective acceptance of the emptiness of our egos can we pave the way for peace.
It starts with personal reflection. Consider any conflicts you may harbor today; they likely stem from the delusions of your own ego. Promote the post-ego philosophy wherever possible—be it on social media, YouTube, or TikTok. Although we are a small group, we urgently need to expand our reach.
Previously, I believed that the post-ego movement could gradually evolve over time. However, recent events have highlighted the urgency of this cause. The potential for catastrophic outcomes looms large, threatening to erase the progress we've made in understanding the hollowness of our egos.
A Bittersweet Reality
As we move through this week, there is a poignant awareness that our days of innocence may be drawing to a close. The specter of nuclear annihilation serves as a stark reminder of our fragility. We must not ignore the significant possibility that we could face dire consequences.
As long as there is even the faintest chance—.0000001 in a million—of overcoming the singularity, we must strive for it. Let this be a rallying cry inspired by leaders like Zelensky, who fight for their homeland.
Never yield! Down with the tyrants like Putin. Long live humanity's quest for post-ego enlightenment!
