Why hasn't anything MAJOR and world-changing happened, yet..?

Sometimes I wonder why something absolutely extraordinary and dramatic has not happened in my lifetime (I'm 50), yet..

No proof of alien civilizations visiting the Earth, and nothing massive and global except maybe 9/11 in it's impact, although that wasn't even entirely real as a bloody ruse of sorts.

There is one thing however, which is almost entirely ignored and that is the sheer magnitude of the universe within which the earth and our solar system is imbedded. That's something that has happened over the last 30, 40 years.

But other than that, it's been really quiet, no major galactic "weather" like running into a slower moving gas or dust cloud, no big impacts or any meteor impacts of any consequence, except the one that hit Jupiter, that was quite something.

If you're like me and fancy yourself a bit of a prophet of sorts or at the very least slightly touched..lol you might have said to yourself and have been telling other people since childhood that something of the farthest reaching proportions and implications would happen in our lifetime.

I'm still waiting... and don't get me wrong I'm not into doom porn and believe that the "thing" itself when it happens could just as easily be good as "bad".

There is one other thing, other than the discovery of the magnitude of the universe around us, and that is what might be described as the cosmogenesis of the omegapoint of the noosphere where the IDEA itself can drive a social evolution on a global basis, and even that has been largely blocked, up until now, by the MSM, news sources and the distractions of a FAKE Celebrity culture mixing with politics, and we'll see how it all plays out but there seems to be a damn breaking and a whole worldview or societal matrix about to burst like a bubble.

It SEEMS as if we are right now on the cusp of a new area and a new age, but it's not of a purely Trumpian nature, since the power and influence of government isn't going to save us from ourselves either.

The ability to have a "voice" armed with nothing but keyboard and mouse, that's something novel that is slowly but surely arising to replace the old outmoded view, which in the words of Terrance McKenna is "like sucking on the dry bones of a dead civilization in the hope of finding enough marrow left to provide sustenance". There's no continuity.

So while it may not APPEAR that the great dramatic "thing" or event has taken place, on another level, I think we are beginning to recognize that history and even time and space might not operate in the way we've presumed according to a purely materialist monist, Newtonian, this and that, here and there worldview running along a timeline that's continuous from past to present to future.

We are beginning, some of us to realize that history doesn't really repeat in the same configuration and that the world we inhabit and therefore history itself is - discontinuous, meaning that it's always new & without history repeating itself except in some sort of manmade institutionalized collective memory or how we've been taught to think about ourselves, others and the world around us.

Willingness and open-mindedness and curiosity and a whole field of heartfelt desire is, I've become convinced, filling the void and the vaccum in the divided middle between what is and what will be and the obvious void of leadership in every sphere of human experience.

The PTB have lost the narrative, and while it's not about Trump, that whole thing has served to break it open (the matrix) for reexamination, and for differentiation and reintegration on the other side of things looking back. We are I feel at long last in pursuit of the simplicity on the far side of complexity that both unites us and sets us apart from one another as individuals.

The 20th century was the century of the self, and the 21st will be and become the century of the human being.

We are finally, and at long last, becoming active historical participants in a transformative process, in what might be called a participatory eschatology in the destruction and discarding of everything that hasn't worked or served our individual and common good.

Courage. The courage to destroy what needs to be eliminated, and the courage to be happy and to build a better world together, is on the rise.

Courage, to think outside the box.

Courage to get in the face of ignorance.

Courage to face down the devil in our midst.

If there's anything that I would pray for from God, it would be to grant the human being more courage, and in so doing the opportunity to traverse a bridge upheld by a keystone of truth and love and authentic leadership, and boldly enter into a new era and a new age of reason and Spirit and of mankind and God working together in partnership as intended by design or an original intent ie: as a different type of kingdom based on a whole other set of principals and standards than the present kingdom of the world (differentiated and distinguished), which inevitably meets its end and falls in the face of courage, even by the lone individual (ie: Jesus) within the context of the true "relativity of human being".

Since the old and outmoded is fundamentally absurd when seen in the light of a higher truth and awareness, it then becomes the brunt of ridiculous nonsense in which we were all complicit at some level - therefore, I would predict that when the "eschaton" presents itself from out of time, it will contain within itself the potential and possibility for great HUMOR and we have so much contrast looking back on it all, perhaps enough to last a millennium, or more.

It's a great joke at the expense of our ignorance and absurdity. A joke capable of saving the world that's told in many forms and languages.

If I may I would like to suggest that it's already well on its way and has been circling the world in different ways for a few years now, but we just haven't quite noticed it yet, because of a lack of courage to laugh at our own ignorance. Pride alone is standing in the way of the new age. That's funny.

also I would like to point out based on several Twitter feeds and Youtube channels I follow with prominent black conservatives or black christian conservatives that Kanye just spawned another paradigm shift

some of the Rothschild have had to leave Twitter because EVERYONE was going at them hard

Twitter is an amazing representation of microcosm in the macrocosm that's directly in everyone's face, particularly the stupid celebs who think there voice matters more than that of the individual.

It's not the kind of basking in the limelight that they had in mind.

I feel I might have had something to do with Kanye's "popping" with a tweet that I sent him reminding him of that meltdown he had on stage (in a good way) and giving him the prod to get OUT of that world, and with those seven words "I like the way Candace Owens thinks" he managed to rip a hole in reality through which to go, while unlocking the mental prisons of so many.

Perfect example of the crux of my thesis, that we IN the "event" horizon now, and because of that rise in novelty, the unexpected and even the impossible may and will become not only probable but actual.

Non-linear historical propagation. It's a bifurcation in complexity and it's opening up a domain of limitless possibility.

The cynic has nothing to offer in this new context, sadly for them.

The wise will let the joke come to them, and then the blinders will be off, and they'll see anew with the eyes of little children.

Context and framing is decisive.

The reason that Jesus so often referred to the Kingdom of God and of Heaven was to distinguish and set it apart from the worldly kingdom, but as a present moment reality - it's at hand!

So close. We so dodged a bullet.

What Kanye and Candace point to is a paradigm shift when people come to realize that they've been used as part of some creepy, collectivist, identity politics.

Saying NO to that, and rejecting it, is so powerful, left or right it doesn't matter.

Individual freedom of thought is the greatest idea the world has ever known, and it's seriously under threat, but is it really when we consider sucking on the dry bones of a dead civilization that's lost it's relevancy and narrative.

Yes. I think it qualifies. Took the old PTB by surprise, even while they try to harness AI to control everyone, but somehow these things are also a double edged sword, like the surveillance state they leveraged into place after 9/11. Never really considered that it might point at them and destroy their conspiracy.

The gagging of Julien Assange in this context is really quite troubling.

We are so in need of a true IBOR as well or an Internet Constitution.

The fight isn't over yet.

Into the breach once more dear friends!

Things that happened in this 50 years of your existance

The internet = information is now in the airwaves
Computers are now commonplace not just in your homes, but in your hands
Cloning
DNA unravelled / new meds and treatments coming out daily as a result
I want to bring attention back to the smart phone...in essence, a tricorder. This is world changing imo

Don't you think the Internet has been something extraordinary and dramatic? We can now have the equivalent of a dinner conversations while sitting at our desk, even when we are on different continents (Australia, USA, Canada, Europe, Asia, ...). The Japanese extend this literally to dinner parties by having a HD largescreen TV at the end of the dinner table and having dinner with strangers even though they are in different parts of the country.

My work at present involves working with people who are here in the UK and USA, all of us working from home and communicating in real-time using instant messaging technology, sharing files, applications and data.

None of this was really possible before 2001. Up to then we all had to use 56K modems. ISDN charged something like 5p/Kilobyte. Even high-resolution live video streaming wasn't possible. Not even Youtube. Now I can even watch those on my TV, freeing up my PC.

The internet accelerates information sharing and thus scientific breakthroughs. But the internet can also be used to promote fear. Allowing Military Industrial Complex and all the others to spend $1.7 trillion annually on war machines. Assigning the worlds spare resources to destructive rather than to a constructive direction.

But I am still hopeful that a breakthrough might be close. When the new 30 metre telescopes come online within the next 10 years (Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT), Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT)), They should be able to detect the atmosphere of exoplanets and possibly even life signs. That might encourage the population to finance greater resource into discovering our universe.

I have no need for meteors, aliens or sun explosions, I have healthy kids.. and that is all I need for now.
Perhaps contact with friendly aliens would be alright to behold

My guess is the reason you didn't list both nukes is because its limited to 50 years.

I am 44 so I'm going to go with 9/11.

You choose to believe it was a ruse while I don't and multiple attacks on US soil definitely had an impact around the world.

Not going to get it before you die because the military is too secret and the cloning facilities are fking up the time line.

Don't complain when Martial law comes.

Since the invention and wide scale spread use of the scientific method advancedment went at warp speed ..

The thing is each branch on new science has a bell curve..

First time advancement is hard and very little thought or resources go into it. So it moves slowly. Then as it catches on . It flourishs.

After awhile you have to get more and more speacialized and big break rhroughs happen less and less.

I want to see the transfer of consciousness to a machine and have robotic replacement for any body part, can't wait when people are born in flesh and as the flesh decays you just transfer over to cyber, a real life matrix of sorts where people can come in and out of reality at will... I hope I live to see that day...
