OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

The digital age that should mark people’s improved and more comfortable lives has shifted a balance of modern human beings. Any real feeling and experience is now considered obsolete and anything we are new to try, banal. Social networks determine our relationships, which either do not expand or do not evolve to a large extent in their absence. At the same time, society suffers from difficult economic problems. Corrupt governments of states could only bring the situation to the end of the barley. A barbour that can only be crossed with real values. But also. Ethical principles are missing from governments, civil servants, education, young people from all over the world. Every act is considered normal as long as it satisfies our egoism. And if this egoism leads to at least one subtle spiritual investigation or an attempt to rehabilitate the labour market, we are lucky. Because most of them imitate the prominence and dreams. Most try to win the beauty when it should not have a place in their lives. What beauty do we talk to? Each defines it differently. The issue is that what is now considered to be a “coul” is often the one that destroys the whole. But everything is good! The cigarettes in each recess are scattered, such as margarites on a mountain pasture, and the graffiti are fired in the urban galleries, making a spectacle... What beautiful our cities are! Car smoke does not disturb us. Forgotten bins do not tempt us. It is enough that our cities are not flooded by climate change. It is enough that COP27 did not discuss us at all, but about something bitter African farmers who cannot feed their children.

If at least half of these problems could be solved by 2040, I would be happy. But we will find the values to bridge the gap between modern realities and real life?

The world has gathered around peace and improvement for all. AI has helped us find solutions to reduce environmental degradation and climate change. Trump, Putin and all other power-hungry men are set aside for the benefit of smart women with humanity in focus.

Otra Europa
To live in a united Europe where fundamentalisms and extremes are put aside. Where a plurality of people from various ethnicities are welcomed and unified in the same European culture. An agnostic Europe that has rid itself of useless religions and beliefs that have only hindered civilization throughout history. Where we are all equal, but our own individuality is recognized. A place to live without worrying about working since AI has allowed us to eliminate the need to have a job to be able to dedicate ourselves to the people we want and have time to live, not be slaves of companies or multinationals. A Europe where birth control is scrupulously controlled to avoid depleting the planet's resources. Less to live longer and better. Where nuclear energy is used as the main source of energy since other alternatives will not be enough. A Europe with autonomous cars and free transport. And above all a Europe without politicians where people exercise participatory democracy and where money is of no use. Utopia can be pursued but I don't think it will catch up with us before we do what is necessary not to destroy ourselves and charge the planet. We will have to sacrifice the worldview as we know it and reach a new standard of society. The world and Europe can be better but we have to stop acting separately and look at our belly buttons.

Europa wolna od zła
It would be a future in which all far-right parties with intolerant views, excluding all kinds of minorities, would disappear from the political arena. In Poland, you can finally get married regardless of gender. Cities are green, renewable energy has reduced smog. You can not enter the city center by car, there are bicycle paths everywhere. Cities offer a lot of communal housing. Plastic bottles have disappeared from the shops, vegetables are not wrapped in foil. The European Union has taken care of the fight against online disinformation, the hate on social media is severely punished.

Stáří v pohodě
I would like to be healthy, have enough money and be able to travel with my family and get to know the world. There would be no wars and everyone would be satisfied, people would be considerate of each other, helping each other and realizing the need to treat the planet in such a way that it can continue to be lived on.
