Regardless of the content, the presentation is very disorganized. It gives me the impression that these are schizophrenic ramblings, not a serious idea.
Genuinely be willing to change their values/goals, if they hear a goal they think is more moral.
Regardless of all the other details, why exactly do you think world leaders care about what is moral?
Like, for example, I imagine Putin as a person who wants to be remembered as someone who made Russia bigger, stronger and more respected. I don't think he ever considers moral dimension of this goal. Why think he does?
Yep!
It's just that "Making Russia bigger, stronger and more respected" is what counts as "his 'moral' goals". It's his morals/goals/values. I'm using them as synonyms.
That part's really just a tiny word-choice thing, and I appreciate that you have enough attention to detail to call me out for using the slightly wrong word there. Definitely a good thing that you pointed that out.
There’s a real chance that in the next 10 years we’ll all be dead because this year we didn’t get our act together. For the past 2 years, I’ve been researching & working on risks to Humanity's future, & this paper is about How Humanity Wins.
There's so many issues out there, so many that could kill millions,
So many that DO kill millions,
Did you know there are trains carrying more explosives than Hiroshima travelling around the United States right now that could tip over at any moment?
Apparently, The New World Screwworn is a tiny worm that devours the flesh of 1 BILLION mammals and birds & some humans every year, and that's another problem I need to worry about.
Just this week, you probably heard a news story that would shake you to your core just 6 years ago.
I'm sick of it.
I can't stand it anymore!
It's all too much!
For all of us!
Humanity deserves better!
This project is the sunshine future, and that bullcrap we had to go through ends right here, right now!
I asked experts at the UN if this idea would work. They said it genuinely will.
If anything's a measure of if an idea will work, if EXPERTS AT THE UN SAY IT'LL WORK, that's a really good indicator!
Problem is, I don't know how to implement the idea, and I need your help.
All world leaders want to do good things. Their values is to do the most good. They just disagree on what the most good is!
Otherwise, one side wouldn’t want X, and they wouldn’t both work to get it.
So here’s my idea: What if we had an international summit to get world leaders to agree on values/morals?
Based on these fundamental laws of Geopolitics, the world would be better in some fundamental ways if we did this simple summit!
It’s time to live in harmony as a shared humanity under a common goal to always do the moral, just thing is no longer a dream of the past. It is now our future, and this is a real thing that just needs an international summit.
All you need to do is make it happen!
(So that's what I'm asking for! Can you help me save the world by helping me figure out how to make this happen? I tried a lot of stuff with the UN, but it's just so unclear who to email there, and currently, Oct 2025, I'm sending this idea to the G20!)
The rest is just extra about why in the world this crazy idea would actually work,
I spoke to experts at the UN and they think it's a good idea,
but only read it if you're not convinced.
You already read the important part.
Before I continue, consider reading "How minds change" (Specifically chapters 8-9). I read it, it's an incredible book that tells you the actual, applicable phycology and directions on how to convince people.
The main argument against this project is:
"There's no way we could convince Putin to be moral." That's true until you read "How minds change".
Ok, now back to the paper:
Now, what came to mind when I first thought of this was “Why would world leaders like Putin ever go to this kind of summit? Wouldn’t they just reject it?”, and I almost gave up on the idea,
but then I thought about it some more, and I realized there are several fundamental reasons that, no matter what, Any world leader would want to both
Here’s the case I would make to Putin if he was wasn’t going to the summit:
And hey, if you hear a convincing case to change your values, that means you’ll get even better values! That’s a free improvement! So listen out for if anyone makes a good case that some other goal is more moral.”
Every other country that attended and advanced to more moral values will hate you,
your people will hate you, and you’ll hate yourself. Don’t be that person.”
These points convinced me, so I figured I’d try bringing the idea to some actual experts.
And I did! Some at the UN, some international relations experts outside the UN, and they all said it’s a generally good idea!
Think on my idea a little while, and if you can’t think of any ways it could cause harm, go ahead & do it!
To a moral humanity!
Yours truly,
