      I mean I should be able to name as many as anybody on the planet, including you. My point is that I am not going to say “well they might do X” because then from now on “X” becomes the focal point of the possibilities. I am not even going to hold my future self hostage to what present me suggests

          Not at all. It’s “I am not going to tell others how to make decisions for their communities.” It really isn’t that difficult to use one’s imagination to come up with possibilities. You are a human being with a brain. You don’t need a Moses like me to lead you to the possibilities. You can do so yourself. This is the issue with global society now, we only do what others tell us is possible, we are terrified of imagining ourselves what can be possible. Think freely comrade, don’t let others dictate your future to you
