Ideology in Time and Space

Each individual performs a function in accordance with what he or she believes is right. What he or she believes is right is in the end, something that he or she must simply do. This is what could be referred to as destiny: simply the overriding impulse above all other impulses to take a certain course of action, which has its roots in the individual’s conception and development, whose roots extend into environment and heredity and so on.

So as each individual performs a function, he or she proceeds to either build something, help build something else, challenge what is being built or even destroy something in the process. So we have ideologies, anti-ideologies, and all sorts of alliances in between. All of these activities end up producing various states of affairs that are based on ideologies, and these states of affairs hold up if the ideologies are strong or appropriate to the environment and represented by strong enough individuals and are not challenged by strong enough individuals. And there are multiple ideologies, all producing multiple states of affairs, with all of their adherents advocating their own views and combating those that they disagree with. Whatever holds up amid this tumult of human activity ends up being what is. This is aggregate human reality.

Is it that whatever survives persists because of blind luck? Did it happen to be the strongest ideology that led to the most resilient societies to subsist on the planet? Or is there something correct about these ideologies, something harmonious, given the current constitution of not only the planet but human social reality?

So what is to happen now? Well, all ideological systems produce societies that in turn change the constitution of the very citizens that are processed within their logic, so that in turn, a society is forced to implement incremental changes along the way to conform to the topography, until of course a major crisis forces the society to revise its very ideology, which can create significant pressures.
