You cover the physiology of the evolution of the West.

If you want a revolution, then you have to go to the foundations, because everything above that is built on it and because the flaws in the foundations can be most easily stated in ways that cannot be disputed, refuted or obscured.

So how to rock the foundations....

The essence of civilization is this flow of time on which narrative and history is built, yet that is due to our sentient interface working as a sequence of perceptions, in order to navigate.

The reality is not the present going past to future, but activity and the resulting change turning future to past. Tomorrow becomes yesterday, because the earth turns.

What this narrative belief conceals is that time is simply a measure of frequency and rate, like temperature is a measures of degree and amplitude. It is not some metaphysical realm in which such events occur.

There is no dimension of time, because the past is consumed by the present, to inform and drive it. Cause becomes effect.

Given human knowledge is passed from one generation to the next, to be built on and manipulated to fit current needs, it provides the foundation of culture and society. Much as the view from Earth is the foundation of epicycles and a geocentric cosmology.

In other words, it is the basis of academia. So given your situation is one of being turned on, by the fields to which you devoted your life, for being unwilling to bow to the Flow of History, why not find some way to point out there is no metaphysical dimension of time?

Do they argue with the point that tomorrow becomes yesterday, because the earth turns?

That this linear flow ignores the actual reality, of which it is only measure.

One where the tides do turn. The feedback loops switch from positive to negative. The wave crests.

Where it is not linear, but the old giving way to the new. The scab peels from the wound.

The future is a continuation of the past, until it becomes a reaction to it.
