Easy answers


I have a sneaky feeling that in this new decade our species (on average) will still find easy (false) answers more appealing than the true ones that require real physical and intellectual effort to materialize. I'm sure that the future battlegrounds for our hearts and minds in the next decade will be the obvious ones, topics such as climate, religion, equality, education and politics etc. Whatever happens, I'm sure we'll all see plenty of upheaval over the next 10 years in our lives, some of it exciting, like, advances in technology and health-care and other things less so, such as climate change and mass migration etc. In the mean time you'll probably find me on the "stollen cake detox diet" for most of 2020, after all it's incredibly difficult to reason someone out of something they didn't reason themselves into in the first place.
