That would require a new ethos. We need you to write one, please. We need it. Our collective history has been built around utilitarianism/enslavement.

There are many smarter than I that have written a better ethos. Their words have been demonized by those that control. The same who decided that history began when control was first taken, ignoring the cooperative millennia that first made humans the most influential species on this planet. Being kind is our instinct, we just need to reject our conditioning into competition. We need a system that rewards camaraderie rather than domination. We need communism, or we will destroy ourselves.
