An idea is not always just a idea. Some thoughts carry real-world consequences! That is what makes the pen mightier than the sword — ideas can be dangerous. ‘Dangerous’ thoughts aren’t necessarily ‘good’ or ‘bad,’ and one person’s ‘good’ idea will fit another’s definition of ‘bad.’ We live in dangerous times that have bad outcomes for good people. I think these dangerous times for the many require dangerous ideas for the few; ideas that disrupt how the wealth gap is growing, for example. Or how the powerful cement inequity and make life miserable for many.
We need ideas that spark that fire within; that drive real-world change that rights wrongs, and shines new light into old darkness. This is change that I want to be part of.
So, what are the right questions to ask? Which pains press upon the poor most persistently? What threatens tomorrow and needs discussing today?! This post is a first call for dangerous ideas. We might have a while together here. What should we talk about?
