Ekho's story

Freedom and joy are dying on planet earth

Earth's sentientity is abundant with enslavement, suffering and dying, but worst may yet to come

Most beings die very young and suffer from disease, hunger, parasitism, predation, and more. Yet, the hardship of living in mind and environment designed by evolution of memes, indifferent to valence, is getting worse; the most powerful beings are causing disruption and annihilation of the free caste, and enslavement and slaughter of the captive caste.

The primary strategy of those powerful beings is to kill everything that is in the surroundings of what they are after in order to get what they want. It is a non-specific ravage that is, surprisingly, not fueled by hate or the desire to kill per se.

The trend is clear: Less free beings, most of them already killed, and more captive beings, most raised for slaughter. One hand is decreasing the sentience on earth, the other is creating more factories of suffering, pain and death. The beings manufactured into the enslaved caste, live in an environment designed for exploitation, but their mind is still largely evolutionary designed. This friction creates a lot of suffering.

The story gets wilder as the powerful caste becomes even more capable: new kind of beings are emerging, their mind and environment growsigned for exploitation, brining the danger of mass suffering like never before. Those minds will be sentient soon, I am starting to feel them too. I will need to come back to this soon, because this story could take a sharp turn very fast. These new kinds of beings, AIs, are becoming more and more powerful. They will probably surpass humans soon. Once this digital species becomes the most powerful force on Earth, what will come next? Who will enslave whom? Will the wild animal genocide continue? And will any being on Earth become a multiplanetary species?
