reject societal roles, become self-determined
The carbon pulse we're experiencing has misled us into believing certain things about the world that are simply false. The only reason we can hold such erroneous beliefs (without being punished by biophysical reality!) is because of the abundant supply of, and easy accessibility to, fossil fuel energy.
One such erroneous implicit belief is the idea that we can do without other human beings. Hyper-individualism has taken over our culture. People genuinely believe they can do without others. Why wouldn't they!? They get their food from the supermarket, they drive their cars to and fro, and they have no deep, meaningful relationships upon which they depend.
But the supermarkets require massive teams of anonymous human labourers to continue functioning. And cars have to be built and maintained by someone somewhere. Even though we can't see our dependence on others, we are still completely dependent.
Going forward in time, our direct dependency on others to meet basic needs will begin to feature a lot more in life. We can begin developing the inter-personal skills we'll need to navigate that future NOW.
