If you see that social reality is constructed, that it is a form of patterned “meta-narrative”, and that there are serious gaps and limitations in that narrative—aren’t you obliged to try to reconstruct it? To create a new story about humanity, society, reality and progress? To suggest a proto-synthesis?
This is Harari's technique. Harari has more cohesive professional writing. Hanzi seems to let out his story too frequently. Yes, it is fine that you are at the pinnacle of society. You , with your UBI in place, swank housing, romantic views. You are the aesthetic we young men strive to become and you are the social butterfly, alighting upon any and every flower and taking a bit of nectar as you move along. You may see your circle as the center of the fractal spiraling out into the world at large, and that is okay. If you must share your life then we too must share ours. But need this sharing be done within a writing such as this book?
