A new understanding, new values, new priorities

The "New World Order" and the conspiracy confusion

According to most sources, the term New World Order would correspond to those global conspiracy theories, that talk about some secretive power elites, that have a "global agenda" and the intention to rule the world through an authoritarian world government. Duhh!

It is more than obvious that some Bushes crave this, or some Goldmen Suckers or Nonsantos or any of those selfish, short-sighted minds from the greedy, hypocrite, money & profit-oriented OLD World Order *, but we definitely do not think that they, the existing elites, taking even more (in fact, full) control can be considered anything 'NEW' to begin with, let alone a 'New World Order'. In any case it would be only a next step of that same retarded OLD World Order, within the existing path they supposedly are already following towards full world domination.

This ambition for total control is, in fact, the one and only true characteristic of OLD and Old World Order: this ridiculous and insatiable strive to become the small ruling elite (makes no difference who, why, when, where or how exactly), that would dominate the vast majority of mankind, which then essentially would be working for them, either or not consciously enslaved.

This lust for dominance is by definition "OLD" and, obviously, there is no way that the backward people rooted in that Old World Order concept, can even pretend to proclaim anything 'NEW' like a 'New World Order'. It would just be plain contradiction in concept. 
So, no Bushes, no Bilderbergs, no Rothschilds, no banks, no corporation, no religion nor any other collective superstition, myth or childlishly secretive group like Templars, lluminati, Satan worshippers or Freemasons, none of these can ever pretend to be the cradle of anything 'NEW', at most they could bring forth some additional step within the OLD!

BTW a recent studie concludes:
Conspiracy theorists are sane, while government dupes are crazy and hostile (share this! ;)

New World Order 2.0 - a new understanding, new values, new priorities

However, to take some distance from that wide spread erratic vision of "New World Order" (say: 1.0), it may have sense to apply the term New World Order 2.0 in analogy with and support of the term Democracy 2.0, as already used by some political parties and movements (at least in Europe). With some frequency these movements apply alternative terms like Consciousness, Awareness, Awakening or Oneness which we consider to all fit in NWO2.0, even if some of them still seem to have a certain hierarchic, pyramidal OWO-religious or sekt-like inclination after all. More radical currents use directly the term Revolution or Anti-something. In general we find that any philosophy that seeks an alternative to the current materialistic, competetive, planet & human exploiting, possession-production-profit-power oriented society may be considered an (partial) expression of New World Order 2.0.
If this term has been poluted too much by OWO, an alternative expresion could be Clean World Order.

Independency Project believes more in an evolutionairy (although fast, please) change, than in a drastic turnover, since history has clearly shown, that most Revolutions, in fact, end up being the same OWO mechanism again, but just under control of "the others". We think polarization is not a useful or valid framework. However we do definitely think that Humanity has reached a crossroad moment and that there are roughly two options for all of us:

1 - We stick to that same old road: 
an-economy-and-competition dominated society based on artificial "growth", measured in purely abstract values like money, production and profit, and fully dependant on ever increasing personal and collective consumption, where an arbitrary and very reduced group of human beings can be "worth" million times more than a large group of other human beings (expressed in the OWO criterium of money of course).
This small elite seems to want us to exhaust and destroy all natural resources in the name of "Progress", until we simply use up our planet within this or the next generation, while heading at ever increasing speed toward that wall that awaits us at the end of this dead end street they are driving us into.

2 - We change:
towards a collective and collaborative society based on sufficiency and recovery (so, quite more than just sustainability) where every human being is "worth" more or less the same and we live in harmony and balance with each other and specially our natural environment, allowing us to continue to develop, and maybe even evolve, as a whole, independent and free from restrictions or obligations as still imposed in current 'modern' society by sex, race, nation, religion or money.

Visions on Awareness and many possibillities 

Crossroads places evolutionary context to today’s escalating social unrest, natural disasters, and economic failures. It illuminates the footsteps of an integrated worldview, penetrating its way through the power of social networks to the forefront of our personal and collective awareness.

THRIVE (Movement) is an unconventional documentary that lifts the veil on what's REALLY going on in our world by following the money upstream -- uncovering the global consolidation of power in nearly every aspect of our lives. Weaving together breakthroughs in science, consciousness and activism, THRIVE offers real solutions, empowering us with unprecedented and bold strategies for reclaiming our lives and our future.  (see on Vimeo)

(Official Movie) THRIVE: What On Earth Will It Take?

The Zeitgeist Movement recognizes that issues such as poverty, corruption, collapse, homelessness, war, starvation and the like appear to be "Symptoms" born out of an outdated social structure. While intermediate Reform steps and temporal Community Support are of interest to The Movement, the defining goal here is the installation of a new socioeconomic model based upon technically responsible Resource Management, Allocation and Distribution through what would be considered The Scientific Method of reasoning problems and finding optimized solutions.

What the Bleep Do We Know!? is a 2004 film that combines documentary-style interviews, computer-animated graphics, and a narrative that posits a spiritual connection between quantum physics and consciousness.

Owned & Operated (also at Knowledge of Today) is a mosaic of the world through the lens of the internet. Showing our lives as consumers, under the thumbs of privileged individuals and their methods of control. But the world is awakening, and the experience is something outside the normal rules of social interaction, causing excitement in those who are not served by the current system... and fear in those who are pampered by it. The film ends on a cautiously optimistic view of the future, and attempts to show us that the human race is not just a wasted experiment.

List of links to sites/groups/movements with an alternative world vision:

1. Movimiento 5 Stelle - Italy
2. Democracia Real Ya, 12M/15M - Spain
   We are all concerned and angry about the political, economic, and social outlook which we see around us: corruption among politicians, businessmen, bankers, leaving us helpless, without a voice.
3. European Alternatives - Europe
   We believe that today the challenges of democratic participation, social equality, and cultural innovation cannot be effectively understood and addressed at the nation state level.
4. Collective Evolution - US/International
   Facebook: CE is a community geared towards thinking about the big questions in life and how we can make BIG change on our planet. Action is everything, both inside and out.
5. Anonymous - US/International
6. Occupy (Wall Street/Together) - US/International
   The #occupy movement is driven by individuals like you coming together to create real change from the bottom up.
   Occupy network
7. Shift Movement
   It’s truly time for humanity to move beyond a world of separate little egos fighting for their slice of the pie to a world based on our deep interconnection, and infused with grace, magic, and beauty. The way we see it, all of today’s change movements (sustainability, peace, human potential, conscious capitalism, social justice, holistic health, etc.) are part of one singular upgrade to the operating system that runs our minds, hearts, and culture. It’s time for a new global OS, and we’re all here to install the Code. We just help make the teamwork more explicit and the co-creativity more artful.

* considering enough proof of conspiracy-like intentions from the ruling elite: the un-explained surrealistic collapse of the twin towers, the obviously false and unnecessary "crisis" and, in fact, the mere existence of Treasure Islands. And then of course the fact that some former US president actually expressed it exactly so in a speech before engaging in an illegitimate war.
