A light-speed "denaturalization" of the universe should not worry anyone, cannot be a faster cease of existence... indeed it could be taking place on each frame of existence, like in an old ctr screen...
I think many more than those listed are being widely used nowadays.
I think is easy to find also Japanese myths (mostly the oni/demon kind) in general and some Chinese-like ones… I found at least in one game (Genshin Impact) an attempt to use also Central American pre-Columbine mythology also and some Polynesian one (even Disney did it). African ones (below sub-Sahara ones) in general are the next less used, together other American pre-Columbine ones. Yet, the vudú-like ones (a mix of African and Caribbean ones) are quite messed up together any zombie-like archetype… and I do not know, but Lovecraft-like ones can be also found often, even not being traditional myths… and I founded many references to Babylonians and early Indo-Iranian myths, specially those linked to demons and witchcraft… and this remind me of references to druid and Keltic-like myths, which somehow permeate (comics-then-Hollywood and other artistic sources have used them). Oh, I also found frequent references to Hindu-like ones. I think the list of commonly used mythologies is already reaaaaaally large.
Mentioned all the above… I am not aware of a rich one not influenced somehow by any of the already mentioned ones, but I am fan of regional paganisms which hide many interesting dark links that predates history.
May be doing a translation of some parameters of the story helps to highlight the absurd behind the whole thing: what if pre-WWII a perturbed individual, with nazi beliefs despite being conscious of his jew origins, kills Germans attempting to promote the reasoning that jews must be handled according to nazi ideals and the nazi party pretends to use it with this intent…
I do not see the “more problems” part on “more money”, you can always repurpose it or get rid of it until you are fine, doubt how that option would be problematic…
I see bit-coiners as people that suddenly decide that the limited can-ashtrays done by a particular homeless that they hoarded now have an astronomical value and you must recognise it and accept the value they represent to them… regardless of the arguments about “printing money is the same”, why should I accept an unilaterally self-proclaimed wealth system value done by some dudes with even no ties to my representative government? If you want me to recognise the value of an invented block chain system begin by distribute all its value equally among all the human beings in the world, then I may start to consider it.
That’s why I effort at maximum into keep my kind away of being successfully bitten at all: none that targets me may bite me, none that bites me may survive, they better keep perpetuating without successfully using me.
CEOs will not become more human due to this potential threat, they will just keep a lower and more discrete profile (which have started to happen already) while probably increasing security measures up to their own convenience.
I would love that such kind of CEOs get prosecuted for good ethical reasons, but the legal system seems to not support such cases, so that’s what should be changed on the first place.
Also, because I trust in the strength of a civilised society and its monopoly of the violence, I want that anybody that decide to kill someone unilaterally face the consequences of such action, with consideration to all the circumstances as usual, so I want him also prosecuted: if I ever take justice into my own hands I will do it accepting all the consequences.
I don’t understand the reduction to a simple false dichotomy about which side between the shooter or the CEO must be taken, sounds like the deliberate simply polarisation from ill public forums nowadays.
The main point is to be able to handle uncertainties in a normal basis, the greyness of reality, despite the temptation of blacks and whites of our minds.
For sure it costs a lot. The consideration of the superposition of possible truths and the weight of potential biases is a huge burden without granted full coverage, but allows you to accumulate a landscape of plausibility of things: yes, is not 100% precise and is still built by personal prejudices but, with a systematic acceptance of new bits of information regardless of how comfortable they are, it can grow a mostly reliable understanding of reality with a variable amount of temporary uncertainty on some facts… and you can still convert greys into quasi-b&w once they reach a decent amount of independent evidences, you now, to free a bit your RAM.
PS: Peer review is neither 100% perfect, is just more solid.
Wow, I was unaware of this, it looks so promising...
