Two high-level Bonbis used the bon-net to communicate with me:
>Genes don't contain any record of human history.
>Is it something that should not be passed on? Should that information be left at the mercy of nature?
>We've always kept records of our lives. Through words, pictures, symbols... from tablets to books...
>But not all the information was inherited by later generations. A small percentage of the whole was selected and processed, then passed on. Not unlike genes, really.
>That's what history is, anon.
>But in the current, digitized world, trivial information is accumulating every second, preserved in all its triteness. Never fading, always accessible.
>Rumors about petty issues, misinterpretations, slander...
>All this junk data preserved in an unfiltered state, growing at an alarming rate.
>It will only slow down social progress, reduce the rate of evolution
>...
>What we propose to do is not to control content, but to create context.
>The digital society furthers human flaws and selectively rewards the development of convenient half-truths. Just look at the strange juxtapositions of morality around you.
>...
>You exercise your right to "freedom" and this is the result. All rhetoric to avoid conflict and protect each other from hurt. The untested truths spun by different interests continue to churn and accumulate in the sandbox of political correctness and value systems.
>Everyone withdraws into their own small gated community, afraid of a larger forum. They stay inside their little ponds, leaking whatever "truth" suits them into the growing cesspool of society at large.
