Humanity is defined by control.
The point we mark where humanity began is where an animal
picked up a rock, but a human made it into a tool. Or when we controlled fire.
After a long time, when they settled down, societies came into
being around the human who controlled the food. Everything else evolved around
that place, that human.
War, slavery, religion, marriage, history… Everything that
is part of humanity, is at its most basic level, control.
Today, control is focused on money. Numbers on a
spreadsheet.
Control used to have to be seized. Now it can be stolen…
