The world will always find itself immersed in a state of darkness whenever common sense fails the species. A society that commands a comprehensive ethos over an order of common sense will form one of the most preferential civilizations known to the human experience. A question of optimality rests on the ephemerality of time. The power of vanity entertains the idea of a nation’s flawed sense of infallibility. A survived existence evaluates the resolution of the human condition through graduated periods of time. Each increment of progress is thought to be an example of an elevated civilization. What we don’t immediately realize is that the literal materialization of progress is best described as an illusion to the greater human condition. The construct of superficial opportunism moves in decisively and succinctly to produce a false image of prosperity. A nation that has been groomed in the image of prosperity develops a sociological attachment to it.
It should be no wonder why the “children of empire” develop absolute expectations of it. Once the construct of sociological prosperity begins to wither away into the wastebasket of history we are disillusioned by the surrealism of its reality. Fragmentation that corrodes the foundation of empire leads to its irreversible disestablishment. Eventually, that leads to chaos and its resulting disorder which further undermines the integrity of civilization. As an empire begins to decline hardliners, armed with an ideology of authoritarian orthodoxy, begin to emerge out of its deteriorating chasms. The idea of restoring the glories of the past is nothing but a desperate cry of deteriorated hope. The reality of a decline seeps in whenever its truisms become part of an otherwise irrefutable reality. The mortality of the species is derived from the common expectations we share with each other; that is why we begin to second guess the integrity of our reality once it begins to fail.
That blatantly distinguishes an indication of our natured dependence on hope which forms part of our greater human heritage. The developmental cultivation of human progress is mapped and distinguished by manifolds of proven sociological success. It is believed, rather naively and arbitrarily, that what has worked in the past will work once again in the present. The supplication of civilization trumps what we know about the human experience with those untested nuances that tempt the unconquered trails of the human experience. Hence, a cause that transforms into an imploded detraction is an indication of a failed civilization. Each incentive for innovation encourages the rekindling of a romanticized past. That does very little to restore sanity to an otherwise declining civilization which is indicative of a degenerated humanity. Once the innovations stop the typological crucible of civilization ceases to exist. An apex of decline sets in on a once high and mighty civilization.
That is when a former world power transforms into a cesspit of third world chaos rendering its posterity to a wake of fated deprecation. From here onward, opportunists are given free reign over the remains of empire; out of the fragmented chaos oligarchies are created; each sphere of oligarchical control becomes a state within a state. In the ashes of empire, a cabal of opportunists will move in serendipitously in hopes of redefining the resurrection of that lost heritage of greatness. It is for that reason why each opportunity of cabalism is an oligarchy waiting to happen. Tactical advantages of opportunism thrive on periodic waves of chaos; that goes on to produce a vacuum of power which becomes the ruling order of the day. The heterodoxy of empire becomes a reinvented alibi for power all under the cover of oligarchic opportunism!
Time is as transient as the nations it will influence. Ends distinguished as a means to optimal efficiency stand as the currencies that leads to the opportunism of un-parallel power. It can be presumed that behind each case of restored hope there is an elaborate design for control. Paradigms of common sense are not necessarily bred out of the spoils of progress. In one way or another the whole lot of humanity desires a better way of life. That describes a fated predilection that is ubiquitously and irreversibly human.
Civilization is defined by an untiring resolve that does everything in its power to bring the outside world under its complete control.
