Another thoughtful piece of writing. It makes me think of Dr Iain McGilchrist’s work on the left and right hemispheres of the brain, where he shows how we live in a culture that allows the left side of the brain rooted in a mechanistic approach to the world to be the master rather than the servant of the right side of the brain, and we need to address this, if we want to survive. channelmcgilchrist.com

This says so much and it's an idea that needs to be explored more widely. I have been wanting to return to my native England for quite a few years now, but the authoritarian situation there seems to be getting worse every year. I do hope more people will start opposing this situation soon - it's the apathy of most people that depresses me the most. It didn't seem to be like this when I was growing up in England in the 60s and 70s.
