>> Alliance for Responsible Citizenship 🏫 ARC Conference 2025 London Compilation

February 20, 2025

Hello everyone,

Welcome back to your favorite blog. After a few days of snow it is now even a bit sunny in Germany. That is good because I need to go vote this Sunday. And I also have to write a short summary about this too. Just so my German readers can get the reminder. Today's article is about the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship conference which took place in London and just finished up yesterday. Once again, this was a YouTube recommendation based on things I am interested in. Below, you can find several videos captured during the event, on a variety of topics. That they are included in this article does not mean, we agree on each and every one of these points and opinions. It just means that those are some interesting topics to listen to and think about, ideally for you to come to your own conclusions after. But we must say, the one about curbing Ed Tech in schools is one we about 95% co-sign. On that note, if I would have a child, my child would not even know what a cell phone is until it turns about 16 years old. Only old school toys, books, paint, instruments and pets. It would be like trying to create a new little Einstein here. Ok, the occasional Disney movie too. I often witnessed parents giving their kids more technology to catch a break, so I can't speak on that. There are different ways of going about it, I am sure. Back to the topic. Please find more information about ARC and some interesting presentations below.

'The Alliance for Responsible Citizenship (ARC) is a global organization founded in 2023 to promote principles of individual responsibility, civic virtue and economic prosperity. It brings together leaders, thinkers and policymakers to address societal challenges through a framework of shared values, free markets and cultural renewal. ARC advocates for a positive vision of the future, emphasizing personal agency, strong communities and policies that encourage human flourishing. It aims to counter pessimistic narratives about the world's future with constructive solutions.'

To this I want to say, that I have never seen more promotion of and articles in the media about cheating, breaking up and divorce ever since the lockdown ended. Men and women pitted against each other. The end of morals, values and family life. Who is paying for this and what is the end goal, one might ask. When did being an upstanding person with values in place ever become outdated? What happened to trust, love, mutual support and honesty? Who is profiting from the everlasting single? Companies who are endlessly selling self-improvement products via instagram, plastic surgeons and therapists. It is also much more expensive to live alone than to split the rent as a couple or family. People are being fed with negative concepts and some design their lives accordingly. With more people living alone and fewer people living together, landlords are cashing in. Whoever owns the media at this point, clearly has a strategy mapped out. As mentioned in one of my previous articles, isolated people are much more easily swayed for any cause. If they have no other choice for finding community (which is a fundamental human need too) in their area, or if they are specifically targeted via online ads, they might even be willing to support the wrong cause.
