 After disasters I’m always amazed at how people come together and see the humanity in each other. The mutual aid we see is a powerful counter to dystopian myths that say we’ll attack each other if we don’t have government keeping order. While sometimes government aid helps it often makes things worse after a disaster. The real recovery is organized by the people for the people.

 I have a feeling that this disaster and how the recovery efforts have begun to unfold may be very foundational and showing us glimpses of the shifting of the times and changing of the guard unfolding. The evolving of the timeline, we are here for, of decentralized and empowered evolved human self governing nodes around the planet. 

There is no need to fight the existing system. The old system is crashing, it is getting wiped out and humanity is stepping in so we can build a new model making the old one entirely obsolete.
