Something to think about...?
In the context of a technological leap...
Someone may perhaps invent 'peace goggles.'..
Projecting for example the Dalai Lama apparently " floating in space"
A producer may set about mass producing peace goggles
An expensive ...and potentially profitable task
....a philosopher, may say wait a minute why do we need these?
as there may be other methods of achieving peace more effectively and for free
Perhaps documented in older texts from other cultures or local folk and oral traditions...
But it is likely the peace goggle owner will be reluctant to publicize this...
For his own reasons...
And if he also owns most or all of the libraries and library catalog....
he may be tempted to not spend the most effort making all the alternatives particulary visible…
on the shelves and in the catalog…?
Perhaps…
Do we in this case have peace, and what sort of peace?
