I wonder what the world would be be like if we could perfectly understand each other whenever we wanted. I don't mean speaking the same language, but to perfectly convey our thoughts, feelings, perspectives etc. to one another. Sounds like a Star Trek episode.

What if people could understand each other instantly and accurately thru telepathy, each one's genuine thoughts and feelings? We would descend into a chaotic, murderous hellscape the likes of which no one has ever imagined.

Yes, telepathy was what I had in mind (no pun intended). I figure there would be less strife given our consequent ability to empathize with one another so deeply. We might have been a single generation, having the sense to peacefully die out.

I figure if people could see unencumbered what others really think & feel about them, all hell would break loose. I know I don't want others, when I'm in public, to see what I'm really thinking & feeling because they're not going to like it, for the most part
