Studying Anthropology might help you and your family survive this Century. Why?

As I had said before here at my blog one of the things that literally saved my life was studying Anthropology? Why?

Well. I started with Philosophy (which is the foundation of all present Sciences on earth by asking useful questions). Then I found a Psychology Today Magazine in the College Library. But then, I discovered Cultural Anthropology in College.

This was also a profound discovery for me because what it taught me was human strategies for survival in all sorts of cultures going back at least 25,000 years or before when we started farming.

I found the most useful personally learning to think like a Hunter Gatherer who was mobile before farming and growing food began.

What is a Hunter Gatherer? It is a person who is a consummate opportunist and very in the moment. Your survival depends upon finding animals or growing food to live on. So, if you are not a consummate opportunist you are soon starving or dead.

And I found thinking like this very in the moment was the style of thinking that I found the most useful for me personally to survive here on earth.

It is very individualistic like I tend to be. I didn't grow up feeling a lot of trust for most people I met and then leaving my parents religion only increased this lack of trust for people in general.

What I'm saying here is I always had great compassion for all human beings but instead of thinking them as harmless rabbits and squirrels I tend to think of people more like Lions or tigers who might want to eat me. Thinking in this way has served me well because of the kinds of people I met especially in the 1950s where often as a child you had to run from adults to survive because they had PTSD from the Great Depression and World War II and they might literally beat you up and kill you without any good reason.

So, growing up in the 1950s made me not trust people very much.

So, my point of view was that: "People are very lovable but also potentially dangerous to my survival!"

This is what growing up in the 1950s taught me the most.

So, what I'm trying to get at is studying Cultural Anthropology you learn many survival strategies that worked (or didn't work) for people during the last several hundred thousand years as humans on earth.

And the most information of course is what happened after people started Farming in the Fertile Crescent in the Middle East around 15,000 to 25,000 years ago.

So, whether you are more of a hunter Gatherer or whether you are more of a farmer or however you define yourself studying Anthropology likely will help you better survive this century so you or your children or grandchildren are all still doing well in 2100AD and beyond.

The Future of Mankind

I once took a survival course from U.S. Air Force personnel that were trained to train people to survive in a plane crash. However, surviving a plane crash far away from the nearest person or town in cold or warm weather with no roads nearby or people nearby is a good metaphor for what mankind faces now.

Do, you know who survives plane crashes in remote places?

THE PEOPLE WHO TAKE AN INTEREST IN SURVIVING!

What do I mean by this?

There are two kinds of people in a plane crash: "There are more than this but just for now let's break it down to two types of people. If you count those who died in the crash there are 3 types of people and this third type of dead people also includes those who are mortally wounded.

But then, there are two types of people after you let go of the dead and the dying who you cannot save because there is no hospital or doctors alive nearby.

So, the two types of people that are left are those who take and interest in their survival

And then the 2nd type of person goes into shock and repeats over and over to themselves things like:

"This is Awful! Why did this happen to me! I can't accept that all these people are dead. I cannot deal with this." And they freak out and soon they likely are among the dead and dying because they didn't take an interest in surviving and instead just freaked out and eventually were gone too along with the dead and the dying.

Who actually survives?

People who look around at all the dead and dying and say: "What can I do to help these people? What can I do to survive myself? What can I do to help us survive this?"

This last group of people often survives whatever comes. Why?

Because they can get beyond the crash and the deaths and the dying enough to help themselves and sometimes other survive. That's Why!

I submit to you that with a president like Trump and with Global Climate changes happening and with governments slowly collapsing worldwide for all sorts of reasons that:

"It's like we are in a plane crash and unless we get into the third group who say things like "What can I do to help these people? What can I do to help myself, my friends and my family? How can we survive this?"

If we aren't asking these basic survival questions right now looking at Trump and Global Climate changes and weather catastrophes worldwide and governments collapsing and people starving, then we aren't personally going to survive all this to begin with.

So, training yourself to take an interest in staying alive both for yourself, your family and your friends is how you and your family and your friends will survive anything that comes.

Incredibly beautiful day at the beaches in Northern California likely from Big Sur through Marin County

Where I was today it was about 68 degrees at the beach which is sort of amazing for this time of year. So, the feeling where I was sort of like a somewhat colder place than Hawaii with many of the same beautiful sights in many ways. However, here we have kelp forests instead of Coral reefs like Hawaii has.

Amazingly beautiful day here on the northern Coasts of California

as of 9 pm it's still 68 degrees in San Francisco by the way.

Incredibly beautiful beach day all up and down the coast.

However, today was likely a fluke because San Francisco high tomorrow is only 63 degrees.

Have you ever watched "The Glass Onion(2022)(Knives out series)?

Well, the character Miles is a parody of Elon Musk.

All you have to do is to witness the picture of Musk with the Chainsaw to Government to understand that he sees himself as an Immortal Disruptor. Destroying things people don't want him to destroy is how he sees himself becoming immortalized through all time. It doesn't mean he is nice. It doesn't mean he is kind. It just means he has captured his immortality no matter what happens to him in life now. Also, his 14 plus children (and likely more on the way) are also a part of him creating his immortality too with many different women.

Also, there is the third Knives out movie coming out some time in 2025. It's called "Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery(2025).
