And it was seen that there's not actually any reason humanity cannot collectively awaken to this perspective. The ability to awaken from the illusion of the mental self exists within us all, and probably exists for a reason. Every species eventually reaches a point where it must adapt to changing conditions in an ever-changing world, and with egoic consciousness threatening our existence with climate collapse and nuclear war we are most certainly arriving at that point today.

The End Of Illusions

The Tony Blair Institute for Global Change has posted a lengthy essay by the former British Prime Minister who led the United Kingdom into two of the most unconscionable military interventions in living memory. Blair criticizes the withdrawal as having been done out of "obedience to an imbecilic political slogan about ending 'the forever wars'," bloviating about “Radical Islam,” and asking, "has the West lost its strategic will?"

Bush-Era War Criminals Are Louder Than Ever Because They've Lost The Argument

In the wake of the Afghanistan withdrawal influential promoters of western militarism have been absolutely fuming about the popular idea of ending the forever wars, and their tantrums are not even trying to disguise it as something else. They're literally using that phrase, "ending the forever wars", and then saying it's a bad thing.

I mean, what a bizarre hill to die on. War is the very worst thing in the world, and forever is the very worst amount of time they could go on for, yet they're openly condemning the "doctrine of ending the forever wars". How warped does your sense of reality have to be to even think this is a view anyone who isn't paid by defense contractors could possibly be sympathetic to?

Warmongers Keep Raging About The Phrase 'Ending The Forever Wars' And We Should Laugh At Them

Pride, praise and celebration are not the appropriate emotional response to the day. The appropriate response to a decades-overdue withdrawal from a war that should never have happened in the first place is rage. Unmitigated rage at an unforgivable atrocity which amassed a mountain of corpses for no legitimate reason, from which the region will probably not recover in our lifetime. Unmitigated rage at those responsible for starting and maintaining this horror all this time.

**Udsendelsen er sponsoreret af HelloFresh**

Emnet i dag er spillere, der kun har optrådt for en klub hele deres voksne karriere.
En af vores kolleger har skrevet en bog om emnet, men det er nu ikke for at gøre reklame for hans bog. Mere fordi det er et fantastisk emne: Hvorfor er det så særligt med disse spillere? Findes klubånd stadig i 2022? Og vil der blive færre og færre af disse såkaldte One Club Players - vi mangler et godt dansk ord for begrebet. ‘Trofaste klub-spillere’ klinger ikke helt lige så godt.

Vi siger også farvel til Sture Sandø, der forlader Mediano pr. 1. december og er den sidste fra det oprindelige hold udover direktøren - dog skal siges, at Jonathan Hartmann var ekspert fra første dag og Monnerup og Dickoh også hurtigt kom ombord.

Rundt om bordet sidder:
- Kenneth Hansen, fodboldkommentator og vært på Mediano
- Jonas Hebo Rasmussen, fodboldspller, vært og ekspert på Mediano
- Rasmus Monnerup, fodboldtræner, vært og ekspert på Mediano
- Sture Sandø, vært og redaktør på Mediano
- Nicklas Beran, gastro-Nicklas og partneransvarlig på Mediano
