t shouldn't be underestimated just how revolutionary Smart Theory really is. And I mean this in the literal sense! Our goal is to usher in a new age - a Smart age - of collective harmony and neverending Smartness. Of course, the road there is still long and arduous, and it's hard to enact lasting change in a society such as ours that seems resilient to the very idea of progress! Individualism, liberal humanism, consistent social values... we tend to think of these things as some type of an irreplaceable foundation for our civilization, but haven't they outlived their usefulness by now?
