Or do we need an exterior crisis(lol, independance day) to make us realize that we need to stop bashing each other?

i would like there one day to be able to create the so called "collective hive mind." i know people fear this because it sounds like the loss of individuality, but i don't neccessarily think we would lose a sense of self. what we do lose is the ambigious nature of language. connecting everyone's mind to eachother, allowing instantaneous and unobstructed, unambigious communication between everyone in the world, would not end the fact that thoughts originate from the self. it would simply allow everyone to know everyone else as intimately as they know themselves. i think that would bring as close to world peace as we possibly could have.
