Power itself seems to be the goal, and the reasons for it is human DNA I think. I have doubts that we can build anything different than this (on a sufficiently long run).


Power might be a goal for individuals, but surely it's not the goal for society as a whole?

Does society as a whole even have a goal currently? I don't really think it does. Like do ideologists even exist today?

I wish society was working towards some kind of idea of utopia, but I'm not convinced we're even trying for that. Are we?


I don't feel like we have goals as a society either.
