(fuzzily read some of the papers) I think competitive side is dominating in the crisis as it's easily reinforced. Resistance to this also evolves, which at some point takes a form of maximally diversified choices of Internet resources, food, lifestyle practices (slow life, meditation), coins etc. So then competitive force tries to defy it with their antipod version of maximally diversified choices. Hence the POLYcrisis in my understanding (hybrid war relates to it). That's what I was trying to convey. This is reality: I decided to write the post specifically because of risk of increasing collapse of informational infrastructure combined with mass surveillance and reducing freedoms (even if they're cheap: like remote work and open source software). How to make this reality better: it's very hard to decide even if possible at all at large scale. So recently I've fallen for more localized/relativistic view on life combined with ever increasing entropy. I do what's in my current capabilities and in what I love. > We need to start from mindset shift from polycrisis to metacrisis. Nah. This works for people, who are self-motivated to learn new paradigms. I already experienced a mind trap in 2010s, assuming that all people are already equally smart and self-motivated (and have common desires for love), they just(!) need "right knowledge". It doesn't work like that. So recently I've fallen into viewing life more like a game in open world like Minecraft with survival mode. Sometimes I write blog post, sometimes create art, sometimes contribute to FOSS, sometimes chilling much. And all this with privacy and diversification of content providers. Reminds me of Y2K Internet heh.
