I am writing a science fiction story, that is an allegory to our current events. In that story, the main character partially plays the role of the revolutionary thinker if you will. Essentially he writes a paper so sublime, and sends it to the leaders of the world, which to his surprise take his joke seriously and yeah. I will also add that it takes place on the first colonized planet by humanity. Point is, read it and tell me if you think this is good enough for what I want it to be. There will be some editing, in particular I will add more correlations to the story itself as i progress. All i need is that if you read this to answer the following question as well as give insight if you want, I would really appreciate your critique.

1. Does it cause any sort of strong emotion that will in turn sort of cause an epiphanic feeling that makes you want to act?
2. Does it get you to question they way that our society is structured?
3. How likely are you willing to take a more active role in our society after reading this?
4. Do you agree with most of the statements?
5. What do you not agree with?
6. Finally; is it understandable to the average individual, a long as they put forth some effort?

Please pardon any grammatical errors, I wrote this kinda high, drunk and fast.

In Regards to the Increasing Necessity for the Unity of Us All

People say there is no guidance for how humans should carry out their lives in this universe, but I beg to differ. As this is easily set once someone proposes a set of ideas, then the people of the world can modify and adapt these ideas to a better set. Thus exposing even more base truths of our society from which to build upon further. There are simple basic truths and feelings every human heart shares in the very constant hum compiled by every human hearts’ beat and rhythm (metaphorically), guided only by the thoughts and feelings of that person's circumstantial and seemingly random waking moments on the same rock that we all call Earth. These are simple truths, that I will take from the speech given by Charlie Chaplin at the end of the 1940’s propaganda movie, The Great Dictator. I’m sre more emerge with the passing of time.
“We all want to help one another, human beings are like that(1). We want to live by each other's happiness, not by each others misery(2). We don't want to hate and despise one another (3). This world has room for everyone, and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone(4). The way of live can be free and beautiful(5). But we have lost the way. Greed has poisoned men's souls(6). It has barricaded the world with hate, has goose stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left [some of] us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical, our cleverness hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little, more than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities life will be violent and all will be lost(7). The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together, the very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness of men, cries out for universal brotherhood, for the unity of us all(8). Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world. Millions of despairing men women and little children. Victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people. For those who can hear me I say, do not despair. The misery that is now upon is but the passing of greed. The bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people(9).”
The speech goes on even more and is very beautiful, though I would argue that part of its importance is in its ability to point at the direct issue of Chaplin's time, which is still the problem of our time. People’s greed over money and or power. With these people’s negative actions being graphed by their malevolence and rank in our socio-economic structure. Realizing that those with higher socioeconomic rank, have more influence over the general populace, then those that are of higher rank also accrue a higher level of negative impact on the society. Meaning; a banking lobbyist, that is all for stealing pensions, sending your children to prison or war and or promoting laws that decrease your quality of life in exchange for additional quality to their own life, or their bosses; is just as evil and reprehensible as the serial robber that inflicts perpetual economic and even emotional loss on unsuspecting victims. Compounded by the fact that this individual is deceiving his constituents at a larger scale, while also being complicit in the lie that distorts the truth of his or her intentions.

The Previous Path Taken to the Fork that is Our Present

The academic idea that the individual is more important than the society as a whole emerged, an idea that self expression of personal variation is more important than the expressions and separating idiosyncrasies of large sections of the population (sectors differentiated by the general natural manner in which they carry out their lives). Note that those stylistic differences in the varying ways that humans can be grown and nurtured must be separated by those traditions and philosophies that have no immediate negative adverse effect on the society or individual and those that do. While individuality is important for the growth of young humans (also for discerning every facet of an individual's identity and better understanding the society itself), it is more importantly an indicator used to identify and better understand those young humans that have perceived negative behaviors as rewarding (through reality or incorrect correlations), because this can cause a sort of “butterfly affect”, or a chain of malice and degradation throughout the society due to the waning level of trust individuals have for one another.
Through this idea, those exceptional individuals of the past saw an opening and seized their opportunity. This idea of individualism will in the end promote people towards behavior that can be at the extremes. Hyper Normalizing all behavior (as long as there is no IMMEDIATE perceived malice), thus allowing those that are willing to risk more to gain even more than before at the expense of the unsuspecting. And through this, those that are exceptional have adopted and promoted to the rest of society, and with proof I might add, that selfishness, lying and just in general socio and even psychopathic behavior to be accepted and even favorable in our society due to the increasingly divergent distribution of wealth.
Seeing as though murderers of massive scale are given platform to express their woes, given that the few that have been in ownership of the value of the world openly flaunt this fact now and even have their own dedicated following to the hedonistic pursuit of extraordinary wealth and or power. This is personified by the characters of mainstream entertainment industries, which in turn is spoon fed to children at a young age due to parents’ lack of realistic interpersonal communication. Let us not forget that those who were leaders in the past, while being great warriors were horribly inhumanitarian. And these were the people that got to spread their genes the most, who were accepted as leaders in the social hierarchy, and even used as role models throughout the times by young humans that were misguided in their importance, in part due to misunderstanding of the newly found idea of a more important individual. While the reality is that both the individual and the collective are equally important.
Out of this, two main philosophies have emerged. The side that is seemingly being negative to the pace of the growth in the species is playing an important role, even though at first glance one would assume otherwise. This is the role that ultimately protects the species by promoting caution when exploring and accepting new ideas into the societal order. Those that perpetuate the change in society pose the counter, and their base responsibility is to exceedingly accept new ideas that immediately seem appropriate through sheer intuition and or circumstance. This will cause greater positivity over the years by the acceptance of new ideologies, orientations, races, looks, etc. As well as by fostering better intuition about ourselves and thus our world, accentuated by the passing of generations that were successful in progressing to the next phase in the cosmic evolutionary path.

                     The Key Exceptional Individual

Although it could be argued that those individuals with a higher level of intelligence are the ones that are more important, the truly exceptional people are those who are diverse enough in their intuition and character, to understand the duality of the nature of humanity. Realizing both philosophical dualities will lead to better problem solving as well as the ability to game the society itself, in order to further their pursuits. This being due to the fact that most people’s behavior will be somewhat predictable by these individuals. As well as by having a better understanding of how society works, yet whether they will cause negativity or positivity is left to their individual free will.
Fewer and fewer people will cause the trends of malice to manifest throughout the years, yet until a certain level of base philosophical understanding has emerged, this will be inevitable. As more and more levels of intelligence are acquired throughout time, those that have malice in their hearts will simply be better at hiding while simultaneously receiving benefits attributed to their intelligence, charisma and or malice. Without being perceived as such by the senses of the average individual. These individuals while negative, are the sole reason why the opposing will also exist, and why their treachery makes us stronger.
Those even fewer individuals that are also capable of the same malice and treachery, can choose to not exert any negative actions in the society and can even use their skills to promote genuine and positive growth throughout. Both are needed in their dualistic existence, yet ultimately; those that choose a higher sacrifice for the greater good of the species, will come out increasingly victorious. Not only because it is easier to be evil, and we treasure accomplishing the difficult. But also because there is a high level of wisdom that is needed by the individuals with higher intellect as well as a higher inclination towards malice, to do the right thing. As their peers’ grasp on this also increases, those that are genuinely the best will stand out. And those that are evil will either be exposed and punished or forced to conform. This will also increase the probability of future generations evolving communicative, philosophical and technological advancements, by reducing the societal friction between opposing ideologies.
It will be a difficult task to define exactly how to swiftly increase the number of these individuals (in some corporate multinational conglomerates’ interest to either advance the species too rapidly or enslave their peers) into our species; as their existence is a direct outcome of the statistical probability in the variations of idiosyncrasies that pertain to different sectors of the society. Some of these self segregated groups of people will have transcending thoughts and philosophies that can permeate across time while also not having an immediate epiphanic effect over the general populace, through ignorance and chance or design, regardless of the ideas magnitude. Thus giving these individuals (that realize these philosophies more readily) the mental superiority, or edge they need to exert change either positive or negative in the current state of society. Similar to the way the popular character of Neo in the grand Trilogy of the Wachowski's, is the anomaly to the societal manipulating matrix. These people are also in a sense the anomalies in our world, yet they obviously do not have the same level of impact in human generations as individuals. Compared to how the individual Neo in the trilogies was the one culminating hope for the sixth generation of harvested humans. This being due to the fact that Neo ultimately also represents symbolically, the common man.

In Regards to the Exceptional Individual and their Nurture, and their Ramifications on Society

In order to reach the highest possible probability of exceptional humans being born, the species in its entirety must be able to provide a stable life with access to the information that species has acquired in every part of the world. As well as all basic necessities through a highly automated global resource based economy. While also making monetary incentives for creativity and progress through out. Keep in mind that although there will be an argument that those sentient beings that outrank the rest can and will create more highly skilled and philosophically adapted humans. The higher rank in a sentient species grants some level of authority or superiority over their peers. Thus they will have a similar amount of probability for malice (having attributed this stance above others to a malignant societal philosophy) as those who are less fortunate. While those who are less fortunate will be exposed to a higher level of treachery and evil to begin with, they will have a natural inclination not to stop these acts, but to subvert them within themselves and use that as a strength throughout their path of climbing the social ladder, thus also promoting equality and minimizing the resentment of those that are less fortunate.
The proficiency of this ability to mask the inner desires into a strength of character, is the indicator of which side this exceptional human being belongs to. Though in crucial moments; either can make the right choice for humanity but only one can make the incorrect choice. So the evil exceptional humans must be minimized while promoting more growth in exceptional beings, which in turn increase the chances of a malignant character. Also keep in mind that determining who these people are in society is not something readily or easily understood, thus attempting to discriminate due to some people’s probable or improbable potential is mundane and counterproductive to the very essence of this idea.

Depth of Interpersonal Communication

The measure of the depth in interpersonal communication between the spokespeople of the above individuals’ pertaining parties to all the possible interconnected individuals in web of humanity itself; will be the indicator of when these different groups of humanity, with their respective ideals, have reached a level of cohesion where no matter the differences; their base forms of individual identity have intermingled enough to accept all of each others philosophies, as long as they do not have a direct negative or adverse effect on others. The more the technological and societal advancements allow the sentient beings to share their accurate thoughts, feelings and views, the better every being in that society will be at relating to one another thus forcing a higher level of empathy, and care for one another, even among strangers.
This level of cohesion in a society will also determine their success through the technological advancement tiers. If their technological advancements outpace their philosophical capacity to comprehend the probability and severity of their actions (those actions’ importance being dependent on the level of control of the universe their technology exerts), they will see increasing peril and need for risk. If these two key properties of a sentient species diverge greatly, then their exposure to events that risk extinction will increase dramatically, due to their own actions, whether directly or indirectly.
Once a species has obtained sentience it is safe to assume that they will understand the concept that other living organisms that also seem to have self realizing thoughts; have their own complex thought structures and emotional triggers based on previous understandings of experienced events. In addition, these creatures’ individual perceived level of importance in their pertaining societies, as well as the strength of their personal will and intelligence; will cause an incentivized social hierarchy that transmits itself through the communication channels that that species has defined as the ones they use to convey value. This social hierarchy, while used by the few that sit at the top to game the system, from sentient to non sentient life, is a naturally forming part of a living creatures’ evolutionary path. This is based on our varying degrees of fundamental understandings of the universe and of ourselves, and also of our ever seemingly divergent levels of base intuition.

In Regards to the General Purpose of Life

Thus I gather from our current knowledge that the only “given” or “basic” purpose a sentient living organism can aspire to being capable of, is simply surviving in the space and or time that we are given in this part of the Universal Existence.
Drawing from this, two other “points” or “purposes” can be made; one is that humanity should also preserve things that make us who we are and who we are is the planet we come from and the planets in which we reside. And out of all of the living matter that resides on these rocks; the animals, plants and the environment itself, make us who we are the most, since they are also alive, even if they are not sentient. The second drawn purpose is that given that life in this area of the universe is so scarce (from current knowledge, but this is true even if a flying saucer lands in a Metropolitan city as this is read); just preserving ourselves as the only living sentient species is not the best action to take. The best ultimate solution is to spread yourself throughout the universe in order to ensure the survival of the species and so that your existence aides in the survival of all known life. Sentient or not because after all, there was a time in which the root of humanity was probably just a small bit of multicellular life at the bottom of the ocean.

The Goal of Sentient Life Throughout the Cosmos

Sentient life holds the crown of the game of evolutionary life, from what we know. Thus it is only logical that our duty to non sentient life, from which we evolved from, is to nurture and protect it. In order to hopefully give way to other sentient life. Thus the cosmic species with the highest technological ability an understanding of life and the cosmos will not only ensure their ideas live forever by becoming the shepherds of our space time. But they will also ensure the perpetual survival of all possible living creature. This is the ultimate goal that can be accomplished by progressing through increasingly difficult tiers of technological, philosophical and communicative advancement.
I believe this idea has already been expanded upon by the scientist Michio Kaku, and by a popular video game called Halo, whatever your preference. Remember that as the power of a single human individual increases, so will the need for even more complex abstract thought in regards to all life but especially other sentient life. This is based on the ever compounding risk and reward, associated with higher tiers of technology such as near light speed travel, 3d molecular printing, near infinite energy resources, (or whatever the minds and hearts of future generations can imagine and strive towards), etc.
-The first tier is a civilization that has full control of the planet they are living on and have eliminated all foreseeable threats to existence in the amount of years equivalent to what that species has been sentient for plus one percent. By this time the species should be able to selectively communicate exact thoughts to to other individuals, through technology or some other way we have not yet thought of.
-Second tier is one that has moved on to other planets in the nearby vicinity, particularly in the same galaxy. And has eliminated all the foreseeable existential threats to all planets for the same amount of years as the race has been sentient plus 1 percent. By this time the species should have the ability to selectively convey emotions and even exact thoughts directly into their peers’.
-Third Tier is one that has expanded to the entire galaxy and has the ability to travel to others for exploration and resources. Their technology should allow them to have eliminated most forms of malice and suffering from the society and have the ability to control more facets of the universe. I suspect that by this time, most people in the society will be able to have telepathic like abilities with each other and almost act in unison at all times because of the deep level of understanding they all have for one another. At this point communication how we think of it today might no longer be necessary among the same species, and maybe even between other species as well.
-As the years pass there will be more things added to this that will become necessary, but only once certain events have taken place. For now, since we are not even the first tier, this will do.

In Regards to the Differences in Mental Abilities of the People Progressing Through Stages of Society

As time progresses there will be more and more questions as to what the individuals with lower abilities and skills should do. The use case for those who are generally deemed extremely difficult to train in statistically average tasks, is to gauge and or define from an outside perspective, just how effective that species’ society is at the true purpose of having a complex organized society.
What is the true purpose of having a complex organized society in a sentient species? It is to improve and guard the lives of the individuals, in order to hopefully breed and nurture the future generations of the species while also simultaneously providing a better society in every aspect (better resources at their disposal, philosophical, communicative and technological advancements) so that they can do the same with their children. And thus the very security of the survival of the entire history of that species is preserved, with of course the lessons learned over time particularly becoming the most important facets of that history. Noting that the weakest members of a society are the weak points in their species, the weakest links are an indicator of the whole because if those that are less fortunate can’t succeed then society has failed them as much as they have failed society. This being ever truer the farther you go in advancement tiers.
As long as the rate at which the generations stride through technological, philosophical and communicative advancements; outpace the very destructive nature of the universe we live in. That universe is in my understand a self organizing matrix of small values that make up the fabric of reality through a set of quasi specific rules that guide their behavior. Which means that in an ever changing and immense universe, the perils will increase along with their severity; whether a meteor or a solar flare comes in and wipes most of humanity or all of it. Or maybe the stars of the universe die after countless years of squandered possibilities, or we ourselves fail to see the romantic and tragic beauty of our existence and commit the unthinkable to one another.

Tragic Reality of Cause and Effect in the Nature at Which Humans Progress

In the end, humanity will need a driving force for unification, whether external or internal, whether by our own doing or not. Until something happens to spring humanity into action, sections of humanity as a whole will not participate actively in the steady rapid progression of the society. Out of the need to either experience more of the basic instinctual necessities and or vices of human life, those passive sectors of beings will perpetuate the same thing as the malignant exceptional individual, but as a whole. The driving force to cause these actions to take place, must in nature be an existential level problem, threatening the lives of the leisure minority; as the above mentioned ideas are to stave off extinction itself. The other possibility is a mass ReEnlightenment if you will, during a time of global unrest and uncertainty, caused by the unmasking of the few that have conspired to ignore the problems of our world and continue to pass the baton to future generations to bear. Future generations that will, sadly, find it more difficult to overcome the same obstacles. 

The problem of the malignant exceptional individual is rampant throughout our time. From the ever increasing tribalism, and lies that put off many global problems as long as they are not in the monetary interest of any investor. The malignant corporate philosophies promoted by the personifiers of the rich, the rich that pay them and that are the puppets of those that conspire to subject us all to their will. To the increasing need to promote false ideas by corporate conglomerates in order to confuse young unsuspecting families in order to hopefully put the reins on their children's minds. This having even festered into the young minds that thrive throughout the halls of universities, at least in the western world. Even those in your community that solely want to spend their leisure time on enjoying the greater parts of life in an addictive manner, are part of the effect that some corrupt news person or celebrity perpetually promoted through extreme consumerism, one way or another.
But even they are part of the effect, as the root cause lies in the incorrect handling of the money supply, in this case done by the multinational banks of the world (in agreement with their representee governments) that have conspired in the past, are cospiring now and will forever hope to conspire to manipulate whatever the item, symbol or token; used to convey value is. Even worse is that through their intense narcissism they will channel the socio-psychopathic energy within themselves, in order to lie to the face of the world about the real intent and cause of quantitative easing, and hide until humanity has once again become unsuspecting.This is truly inevitable and will happen in cycles, as mentioned above, but it cannot be to the degree at which it is today.

        The Matrix of Our Lives

I will leave here set of words chosen by me from The Matrix Trilogy, compiled in a way that you can consume some of the allegorical philosophy easily. This pertains specifically to the current state of affairs between those exceptional individuals of our society and of the societal path the masses have wrongfully accepted as their new journey. My reasoning is it's depth, history and deliberate, purposeful action to discreetly wake the minds of the young exceptional individuals of our time throughout the web of humanity, made in part to our era of the New common man (the common man with the power of the internet).
Some of these ideas also seem to me like a tribute or call to those exceptional individuals who have the power to use the subversive indirect effects of the malignant character. For example, the Wachowskis use the tool of controversy (knowingly or not), to spread their message. The Oracle herself used methods of manipulative dogmatism in order to set things in motion in the way she wanted, good thing it ended well for humanity.
I also suspect that even more than 20 years ago, the Wachowski’s set a timer of sorts, for when a newly enlightened generation will come and change things for the better. I believe the movie suggests that it will take up to 6 generations, I believe we should start counting from when the fiat currency system was established. Having been a small child when seeing these movies, I immediately understood the importance of them, yet it would take me decades to put it into digestible words and not just intuition. Thank you, forever and always, for deliberately, purposefully, setting the cookies on the table, mom…. As I will choose to have one. :)

“The Matrix is a system Neo [the system that keeps humanity in a perpetual loop], and that system is our enemy [although few individuals cause the negativity, it is the system that they created that is the true enemy].”

“But when you’re inside, you look around, what do you see? Teacher, lawyers, carpenters, businessmen; the very minds of the people we are trying to save [in our time you enter The Matrix when you step into an area that is an ideological echo chamber and when people out of, cynicism and resent, possibly with the guise of “memeing” or “trolling” (for laughs) push out those individuals that do not conform to the persons (“trollers”) ideas]. But until we do these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy [ideologically].”

“You have to understand; most people are not ready to be unplugged [most humans in our society that are part of this “matrix” are almost unconsciously aware of this issue, but choose to not change out of a trivial sense of difficulty, or out of needing to forego many of the more vice filled areas of life, or because they will genuinely be judged by those around them, by the quality of progress they actually produce (“God forbid anyone do any real work around here”)]. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system; that they will fight to protect it [it’s like people are “high” off the society and will defend it almost like an addict because they cannot live without it].

The women in the red dress represents how even Neo will subdue to the base vices of the common man, even in the face of pure, true enlightenment.
Once Neo has a gun pointed at his head, it is revealed that where they are is another training program to teach about The Agents.

“If you are not one of us, you are one of them, [They are] sentient programs. They can move in and out of any software still hard wired to their system. That means that anyone we haven’t unplugged is potentially an agent [anyone in our Matrix, through a domino effect, usually starting with a malignant character; will simply jump on the bandwagon of those exceptional malignant individuals because they have been fooled by their negative societal philosophies].”
“Inside the Matrix, they are everyone and they are no one. [Those that have truly mastered the negative philosophical character need not even be present, their face on the TV with their words will surely be enough to cause the necessary division for the controlled chaos they require to operate].”
“We have survived by running from them, by hiding from them [in our time; the agents are those that are proponents of the current societal order due to their societal inebriation, even if they are not the one to benefit the most from it], but they are the gatekeepers. They are guarding all the doors, they are holding all the keys, which means that sooner or later; someone is going to have to fight them [these people have affected our society so much that they effectively hold the reins to societies chariot, so someone or some group will have to expose and defeat them in order to give the reins back to the people].”
“I won’t lie to you Neo, every single man or woman who has stood their ground, everyone who has fought an agent has died [this idea is not new as there has always been central banks that issue power, and they have always fought back, and they will fight increasingly as their grasp wanes more and more].”
“But where they have failed, you will succeed. I’ve seen an agent punch through a concrete wall, men have emptied entire clips at them and hit nothing but air. Yet their strength and their speed are still based in a world that is built on rules. Because of that, they will never be as strong or as fast as you can be. [the truly good exceptional individual will not have to play by the rules of deceit, which requires truths to be subverted, particularly in public places, thus the malignant exceptional individual is at a perpetual disadvantage due to their own behavior, granting an increasing edge to the benign exceptional individual as they progress through the social hierarchy].”

Neo asks if what Morpheus is saying, is that he can or will be able to dodge bullets

“No Neo, I’m trying to tell you that when you’re ready, you won't have to [once the society (Neo being the common man and simultaneously the anomaly that is the exceptional individual) is ready, no violence will need to take place in order to achieve a positive change].”

In Regards to the Beginning of the Unity

I believe that by confirming these ideas, publicly with one another….. from the individuals; constantly judging and distancing one another…... as nations; often denouncing other nations and purposefully damaging their futures…… or corporate conglomerates; who wage war with the wealth of their respective representees….. to even multinational banks that conspire to be the very fingers of the invisible hand of the economy, through technicality always receiving the rewards of the many…..Humanity will overcome many of the impurities in accepted social behavior caused, in this instance, by the passing of the greed of men. And the idea brought upon us in the terrible trembling wake left by the Great Wars (and the many lost generations of people), that the individual is more important than the collective. Also note that as new quagmires emerge, there will be a necessity to overcome future societal obstacles.
I ask of you to please spread these sheets of bulletproof characters, arranged in a manner that will hopefully be infectious to those who consume the ideas contained in the emotional interconnectedness of the words. I also ask of you to please annotate any changes that you think are relevant, sign it as if it were you that wrote this and draw something pertaining to your individuality before handing it to someone near, and telling them only the end. Starting with the word forever, thank you very much, friend. :)

Finally, the light at the end of the tunnel; the remaining hope that I have gathered to leave you with is twofold; not only is the win more savorable, memorable and definite, but clearer near the end. -Also forever keep in your heart that humanity is at its most dangerous, cunning, powerful yet gentle, loving and wise, right when everything hangs by a….
