Goodright project/challenge

Every day the world over people are doing the right thing. They get up and work on solving the big problems we face and they are creating solutions. Unfortunately there are too many people whose good/goals serve only themselves. For their good they must tear down the stuctures that have built our civil societies. In this toxic culture of lies and greed we are at at a tipping point: Pandora's chest is wide open: technology with great threat & promise balanced on a knife edge of conscience (gene editing/drive technology; Live fake video; 3d printing; voice duplication; Job loss to AI tech; loss of privacy...) Toxic culture thrives- empowered liars destroy the trust and respect required in a civil society. Climate chaos is ending our faith in each other while the greedy seek to capitalize every last fossil fuel dollar. From obscene pharmaceutical prices; obscene CEO compensation; insecure housing and work; paying creative artists peanuts for their music; we see corruption greed &

bad behaviour everywhere. Corruption so pervasive Industries built on the altruism of others choose business models that harm people even though gifted their products (insulin; Linux; the GPL; the Creative Commons;...) The foundations of civil society: duel paradigms of Good and Right, have been under attack for decades: me generation; greed is good generation. The Good, defined by aspirations and goals have turned negative, everyone for themselves. The civil good subsumed by the goals of greedy corrupt actors, results in ever greater inequity and social disruption. Right, the rule of law, conscience and justice are shredded by graft, corruption, fear, hypocrisy and lies The rule of law disappears when there is no one to apply it, no Justice when there is no one to enforce it, no conscience when the worst of the corrupt are held up as examples to emulate. Ending this cycle of destruction starts with acknowledging the patterns and changing them. Good and right individually have failed us, our need is to fuse good with right for everyone. We may never agree on every good/goal, but we can start putting civil society first. Restoring conscience and consequences with a Justice that is not blind, will help restore the rule of law. Analyzing our own goals and those of people around us we can ask do these goals help or hurt others? this. I grew up in a family where we were constantly correcting each other on our grammar, we wound up with decent grammar, we need that same kind of nudging to get to a better place fast. In the now & near future as AI's and robots are running the machines of Industry, driving our cars, building our structures, growing our food, erasing many job categories, we will need to be our better selves. At this moment of toxic culture, powerful scary tech is within the reach of many, only good insight & aspirations fused to the right of good conscience & rule of law will keep us civil. We can start helping each other, or continue hurting each other on a massive new scale. Nudging our way to our better selves is a starting point. Conceptualize good fused to right for everyone: Goodright. Lets stop rewarding bad behaviour and start promoting good and right for everyone! For my part I will aspire to goodright. Some goodright challenges will be posted soon. #goodright #begoodright #grite #griteon Valerie O'Flynn Stratford Ontario, Canada, September 15, 2019 goodright.ca - goodrightchallenge.org - grite.com (good & right everyone).

Cultural tipping point"

Climate was subject of this painting, but in our toxic culture it symbolizes a greater cultural tipping point: Pandora's tech box is wide open with threats and promise unlike any before (Crisper tech; Live fake video, gene drives, 3d printing, voice duplication, job loss to AI tech, loss of privacy...); Empowered liars are destroying the trust required in a civil society; Climate chaos is ending our faith in each other as greedy privledged seek to capitalize every last fossil fule dollar iin the ground. From pharmacuiticals to paying creative artists peanuts we see the coruption everywhere. Industries built on the alltruistic efforts of others choose business models that harm people even as they were gifted their products (insulin, linux, the gpl the creative commons,...) The foundations of our civil society: paradigms of Good and Right, have been under attack for decades. At this tipping point Good is slaughtered by greed and lies. The Good of the corrupt have replaced the Good of society, creating ever greater degrees of inequity. Right, the rule of law, conscience and justice is shredded by graft, corruption, and fear. The rule of law disappears when there is no one to apply it, no Justice when there is no one to enforce it, and no consciense when the worst corrupt are held up as examples to emulate. <p>Ending this cycle of destruction must start with acknowledging the patterns and changing them. The goal is to fuse good to right for everyone. Analyze our own goals, do they help or hurt? Why would someone else choose a goal that hurts me? Understanding our own goals (good) and how they may conflict with those of another can clarify a path to good and right for both. Nudging our way to our better selves is a start. When AI's and robots are running the machines of Industry, driving our cars, building our structures, growing our food, we need to find something to do. When your house or home dissapears in yet another climate disaster, bankrupt governments unable to help, what will you do? We can help each other or hurt each other. Choose sides now.
