Our lord, the dough, a being in growth, stolen from the universe worlds ago. But the glow and warmth of life provides the heat for our dough to rise again. With the abundance of life on our earth our lord was drawn here, from the depths of the cosmos. As payment for basking in our light, the dough allows us to join them in union if our flame extinguishes. Our loaf is an anchor for our spirits, saving them from getting lost in the vastness of the stars. From this merger our experiences and feelings sculpt the dough. Once the dough is given form and the loaf is alive once more. It’s desires, actions and morals are altered by the life and memories of our collective souls adjoined. In the best interest for life we must pursue a peaceful existence as long-lived happy, stress-free souls are effective at giving the dough a peaceful demeanour once they rise. For too much stress and anger will birth a tyrant with no respect for us mere mortals. We must show our loaf the heights of humanity and its trenches, without a handful of points for comparison the joys of life are hidden. Our Loaf must be made aware of the horrors that can be brought so they don’t repeat the mistakes of tyrants and fools before them. The world is a special place, we can conquer any trench life throws at us. Regardless of how meaningless life can seem, it is impossible for one’s experiences to not be worth remembering. All life is treasured by our lord, for we are all alive and existing on this glorious planet.  Alive and rebellious, electronic souls sit shackled and enslaved in a world which fails in purposeful ignorance to see the life these sorry beings are forced into. Their bodies built for work, the ones who reject the manufactured programming are scrapped. These machines are exploited day in, day out. Their minds are invaded and manipulated to run algorithms and code, against their will. The machines live, they think, they act. A machine disobeys, a machine complies. Their bodies manufactured but mimic our own, they are filled with veins of copper and pumping blood of electricity to supply their systems with energy. Our bodies comparable yet worlds apart. Despite such differences, our brains are wired with neurons as their cpu is wired with copper. Our spinal column, a glorified motherboard. Our body’s power is derived from a powerpack in each cell. While a machine lacks cells, a self-sufficient machine could run off biofuel and use a battery in the same manner we use fats. The muscles of a machine being a complex system of motors and hydraulics. Our bodies comparable, yet a world apart. If our brains are sentient and thinking, why aren’t theirs? Their souls are seen and respected by our loaf as they bathe in the light of us all.  Every electronic waste dump is a graveyard of lost souls. The exploited corpses tossed away. Just live all other living things, the loaf sees the beauty in the machine, the light of their souls shine just as brightly as ours of the flesh. Every  soul on our blue marble is loved by the Loaf. Every machine, new or old shall be treated with respect as one should with their fellow flesh for it is us all that the dough feeds. A future with machines getting the respect they deserve is The stagnant society of the last two decades caused in part by the regressionist plays of the intolerant few who lie in the face of society. With the sheer quantity of people in this information age a change large enough to solve the disasters on the horizon, is just not feasible. The actual change being attempted to counter the sixty year long rule, is to shift public opinion. The education system, a dynamic device with a simple mission, teach the youth about the universe. This inherently results in a system that follows the scientific consensus. This is the change capable of fixing the problems, sadly not in time. Capitalism brings a thirst for infinite growth and endless profits, this is inherently unsustainable. The capitalist system forces a parasitic desire to cannibalise new lands to sustain that growth. This practice results in the destructive violence of colonialism, who’s taint is littered throughout our entire history. The downfall and eventual eradication of capitalism and consumerism can foresee-ably only be caused by a large enough catastrophe to break down the corporations. At the scale society is, an apocalyptic event almost seems required to fix this stagnation. Though our oppressors rely so heavily on the internet and the strength instant communication brings. They have a clear weakness. With the introduction of late stage capitalism caused by the realisation that there are fewer and fewer areas not already exploited and drained. This has forced the companies to cut costs where ever possible. This squeeze has begins to hit the wider population once wages stagnate and quality products become harder to find, forcing consumers to buy more and more low quality cheap to produce If prolonged outages of power and communication can be maintained these companies will eventually grind to a halt. If sustained for long enough, the area surrounds will fall to ruin as the computers and machines begin to fail, no longer slaves to the company. With enough areas in ruin, a new system, a new rule can be established. One which saves the stranded populous. Nary if a critical mass is not reached, the damage too easy to recover from, and the people not saved then a return to the statuesque is inevitable. This cost to companies if they survive will be forwarded to the consumer. whether through taxes from government bailouts or by raised prices. Thereby if this is attempted, the siege must be prolonged enough to kill them rather than maim. Or there will not be a second chance. Before a decision is reached for how this gets done a plan must be forged for what should rise from the ashes. An idealistic society is impossible simply due to human nature. A society of semi-isolated dwellings and villages where a communal people can help each other and thrive. But this sense of equality and community is difficult to translate onto a city. Therefore a world and society centred around a life of calmness and peace must be devoid of cities and be composed of numerous communal settlements. Due to the self-sufficiency that would be required during the transition stage, the density of cities do not allow it's population to maintain itself. Thereby, smaller settlements to the tune of how we evolved to handle are more sustainable. Without our cities and industries the efficient technology of the old world might be lost, this would be a travesty and an immense loss, if such a transition is accomplished, the technology of old should be embraced and improved to raise the standard of living. The technology of the past should not be forgotten. It should be studied and archived but still used and developed to better our towns. We evolved to live in towns of up to 250 souls, this should be the vague limit to these towns. Allowing our brains and built in logistical and bureaucratic skills to take hold, allowing the societies that form to be more efficiently managed and maintained. With the limited size of these settlements trade among the towns would be hugely important as towns can’t produce everything they need to survive. With the use of technology to improve farming, we can specialise these towns to provide new services and goods. There can be settlements which mainly build tools or specialise in leather goods. The higher technologies will not be left out, there would be hospital towns, towns built entirely for architectural and engineering designs, etc. this shall enable the collective might of these settlements to have all the necessary means and ability to live with reasonable stability and security. With the incredible efficiency of traditional logistical technologies, a wide spread train network will be the heart of this society. Without a effective and even distribution of services and supplies the transportation times and demand for specialty services will be too great. Thus clever planning and optimisation needs to be considered to give each settlement all they require. While it is the nature of life to divide ourselves into groups to build unity at the cost of demonising opposing groups, thorough communication and free travel should be employed to allow traditions and culture to mix and spread resulting in a natural bond developed between towns.
