How do we get to a place where suffering ceases to be a thing in the world from where we are now?
I agree that we do not need to suffer in order for things to evolve, for creativity to take place. We have sufficient imaginative ability to forgo the actual nastiness and get straight to the way we would like things to be.
Some people (and the organizations they belong to) appear to want to keep everyone else in a state of permanent helplessness and dependency.
How do we move on from this?
Education is one thing, but at some point I feel we may need more than simply handing out flyers.
People need to adopt "the new ways" and live them in the present instead of eternally waiting for some promised future land of milk and honey that never quite materializes.
This can only happen through a true system of individual choice which as we have seen over the last few years is scarce in the present day.
We are moving in a more totalitarian direction every year that passes. Centralized control of all life and all functions on the planet. And most people seem to be quite happy with their lot. Or at least I don't see anywhere near enough people complaining about their lot so that's the impression I get.
Life extension is great as long as health is maintained and someone pays the bill!
Seriously though...

I don't get it...
Just kidding...
I'll schedule my next beating and be on my way.
Brilliant!
