Modernity's Two Mythologies

Modernity's Two Mythologies

Gustave Le Bon revealed that history runs on dreams, not logic—90% of humans merely rationalize their emotions. Every civilization projects fantasy ideals (Christian Heaven, Marxist Utopia, Valhalla) that animate their entire existence.

Most remain trapped in modernity's mythology, unable to see the illusions controlling their lives. SPONSORS: Zcash: The right technology reshapes politics and culture toward freedom and prosperity.
