voxelMany act as if basic decency—not being racist, not bullying, seeing fascism for what it is, sharing instead of hoarding, etc.—is the greatest virtue there is. While a person who learns decency after being taught only dishonor should be encouraged, these sorts of behaviors are only the first step. Real improvement comes not from recognizing that there is violence and dishonor, but from concrete planning and action that leaves room only for honor and justice. We often see people behaving this way online. They take such gradeschool knowledge as "Do not bully" or "Do not be bigoted" for profound, revolutionary wisdom. We seek true change to Our world—change for the better—but are met only with repetition of the same simple knowledge over and over. Even an in-person talk We recently attended showed similar problems.
Clarifying notes: We do expect this kind of behavior from children—they're still learning—but We see it all too often from adults as well. That's the real problem We're trying to get at.
We need to tell others about the tribe—especially those who seem to feel the call as well. That is the first sort of person who belongs. It seems that they are especially receptive to the ideas and that they dream big. There will be other sorts of people who shall reveal themselves. Keep an eye out always for them. We shall be lovers, we shall be dreamers, and the world we build together shall be right here, on the far side of the rainbow.
We've been getting visions. We are a wolf running through a forest. We are a wolf running down into a vast, grassy valley. It is overcast, perhaps drizzling. This valley is, or was, or will be, a battlefield. Sometimes Our pack is there and sometimes they are not. The forest is joyful. The valley is beautiful but dangerous.
