The Human v The Anti-Human: The Great Meta-Confrontation of the 21st Century 2.0

The Human v The Anti-Human The Great Meta-Confrontation of the 21st Century (Second London Event) Following a successful initial meeting there seems to be a great need to come together on this area of massive importance. So we are holding a second larger get together. Please share the details with people and networks that may be interested. Towards the end of the evening we will talk about the various pathways that are now getting to create a new mass movement around these themes. So what is going on? The age of secular materialism is condemning our living planet to death, and the Left is failing to define a vision of humanity that reclaims the spirit of life and the future. The deafening silence of liberalism and the transparent spectre of “the woke” are accomplices to techno-fascism’s rise as we hurtle towards extinction. What will it take for us to reclaim our care for this world? For each other? To draw a line in the sand against the same stale ideologies that have bought us to this point of global suicide, and to work together towards something rooted in our love for life? Our age can be defined by a war of the ‘human’ vs the ‘anti-human’. This war has various fronts - the battle over AI, the battle against big tech's erosion of democracy, and the battle over the destruction of the biosphere. The world is dying, and core to it all is political corruption married to extreme concentrations of wealth. It is a system that holds infinite growth at all cost to be sacred, and the human to be profane. This event is not about rehashing some secular reformist left “concern”, or getting lost in an endless post-modernist sludge of constipated critique. It is about exploding into a new passionate love for the human - in all our fullness and glory. It seeks to wage an attack on the dead ideological flatlands of ‘technology as god, instrumentalism as god, and power as god’. It seeks instead to build a new reenchanted way of being. This evening's event consists of 3 provocations on what it means to be human. This is followed by responses, before splitting into break-out groups and discussing among ourselves, then feedback. This will be followed by networking and discussion. And as mentioned - things do not end there. This event is bought to you by a coalition of groups explicitly working for revolutionary change in the face of extinction. We will take feedback on new concrete ideas on how we resist the end times, imagine a future worth living for, and provide pathways to collective action.
