Well that's the trick, isn't it? "The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways. The point, however, is to change it." I have some idea of how we might go about doing that, but I'm sure it's nothing you haven't heard before, as I have the distinction of being a Marxist. I agree that as raw materials we are uniquely unsuited to a non-penal society, our minds having been hollowed out and transformed by the hell we currently inhabit. I think the best we can do is forge a path to something better for the people not yet born—a truly better world is one they will build, something we can't even imagine in our current state. Unfortunately these things take time, and revolutions often backtrack, get diverted down different paths, etc. I don't have any easy answers.

Personally, I'm hoping for nuclear war, to be followed by alien contact.
