This is not a frivolous question even if it seems so. I just read this quote from Lenin on facebook:
"A revolution is impossible without a revolutionary situation; furthermore, not every revolutionary situation leads to revolution." Lenin For me this diary is the seeds for another book. Let me explain why this quote is more important now than in Lenin's time. In our recent book Global Insanity: How Homo sapiens Lost Touch with Reality while Transforming the World Jim Coffman and I spell out an analysis of human history that is very different than any other. We base it on works of many including George Lakoff who has contributed here often. If you read below the break I'll give a synopsis then go on to talk about the possibility or impossibility of another revolution of real substance.↧
