Stealing the Youth
In the post on HELIOGENESIS, I argued that the two main pillars for driving meaningful change are coordination and materiality. Today, after outlining the current state of our activities over the past six posts, I want to introduce a third strategic element—one that is essential for creating the necessary and desirable transformation we envision. This new element will set the stage for introducing the MIRACLE FACTORY as the central vortex of change toward a heliogenic civilization, and INFINITIVE as a core component and tactical vehicle within that journey. Together, these initiatives will deepen our commitment to systemic change, guiding us closer to a regenerative and life-affirming future.
Both scientific studies and empirical evidence indicate that the majority of young people on this planet are deeply disillusioned with the current system and their prospects for the future. Their radius of concern is massive, encompassing the full scope of the polycrisis—yet they have little to no radius of power. They are left feeling utterly helpless, acutely aware of the challenges facing humanity but lacking the means to make a meaningful impact. This disconnect between their awareness and their agency is a profound source of frustration and despair for the next generations.
They can clearly see how even the most well-meaning people, once inside the system, become trapped—unable to find their way back. Young people don’t want to follow traditional career paths, knowing that a career within a system that is consuming its own foundations is doomed from the start. Yet they feel they have no real alternatives. They’re left with a sense of being forced into emotional suicide—compelled to sacrifice their ideals and sense of purpose just to survive in a world hell bent on self-destruction.
What if the young people of this planet—the 15% of humanity between the ages of 15 and 25—had an alternative? What if they could start living, acting, and building in a way that was fully aligned with the principles of Life? Imagine if they never had to participate in the current, self-destructive mode of civilization, but could instead leapfrog directly into a heliogenic civilization. A future where they wouldn’t have to compromise their values or surrender to the inertia of a collapsing system, but could channel their energy and creativity into building a regenerative, life-centered world from the outset.
If such a shift were possible, it would abruptly cut off the supply of human resources to the current system—far faster than the AI and robotics revolution ever could. It would drain the last bit of remaining life from an already dying system, accelerating its collapse.
This is exactly what we intend to do. How we will go about it will be the focus of the next two posts.Â
