Fear has many shades

Hopelessness is the primary culprit

Hope though is the most powerful triggers for empowerment

It is not a zero sum game

Equations have constants

Hope is that constant

In an world which evolves every moment

9/11 changed how one billion people were looked at forever. This is the biggest price paid, everyday at some airport security check. The amplification of the securitisation become the new normal of surveillance. India, Thailand, Philippines, Sri Lanka and Burma received the biggest leeway for persecution ever. The digital only hyper amplifies such primal and primitive biases.

9/11 changed the world for the reality of today, as we experience it. Millions killed, countries destroyed, trillions spent/squandered and sixteen years later, we have Trump who is a residual historical figure, almost as a reactionary response to the dastardly event, 15 years later.
