Humanity has acquired more power than ever before at almost exactly the moment when our systems are becoming less capable of agreeing about how to use it.
Don't diminish the phenomenon merely because its ontology is complicated. But don't embellish the ontology merely because the phenomenon is meaningful.
Become capable enough to act, wise enough to understand the consequences, strong enough to resist exploitation, compassionate enough to remember whom the power is for, and humble enough to surrender the framework when reality proves it wrong.
