Why you are part of the problem, if you are not part of the solution.

Good news and bad news

The good news is, somebody bought the Energy Polarity Multiplier Framework book, a few days ago.

The ice is broken. This is very cool, and I am very grateful to the person buying the book, I haven’t had it confirmed they would like me to publicly say who it was, congratulating / celebrating them, and Medium seems to withold some of our attempts to communicate with one another.

The bad news is nobody else bought it.

Still most people are on the wrong side.

The problem I’ve been pointing out is that we are like a swarm of ants, we are, each of us, acting more or less in the same way as each individual in a swarm of ants, oblivious to the harmful systemic effect of the swarm overall. Its the systemic behaviour we need to fix, but we have to do this by modifying our individual behaviour.

The harmful systemic effect is atrocity, trauma being done to us as a population in various places around the world, done both by humans, and by the environment, in the latter case because of the trauma we’ve done to it.

Because there are multiple atrocities occurring, we don’t know which one to look at, which one to “Try to stop”, whilst actually just virtue signalling, by addressing only the atrocity rather than the root cause of it, its pretty much impossible to stop any of them, without fixing the cause of it all at source.

This behaviour, of acting like a swarm of ants under an almost intangible, implicit emergent inhuman intelligence associated with the swarm, is optional. Its a learned behaviour, unnaturally taught by traumatising humans in history.

Being taught by trauma is part of evolution, its normally something done by the environment.

But if it was trauma done by the environment that we were reacting to, we would have evolved to become conformant with the environment, not hostile to it. The environment would have kicked us into shape, long ago.

I’ve said a lot more in the story about Enshittopia:

What it comes down to, is we have a choice to make, whether we wish to be on the side of mathematically positive energy, or on the side of mathematically negative energy.

You choose to be on the side of mathematically positive energy when you choose to break the chain of slavery, by showing generosity, the same way as the sun shows it, with nothing asked in return, as a reward, just for being a living thing, capable of contributing to all of life, by just putting to use a little of the energy of the sun, for anything other than just the heat it might become if it isn’t used at all.

This is us, contributing to the cause, and the function of mathematically positive energy, when we give unconditionally, and when we do it, when we all do it, is when life does maximum decrease of entropy, thus maximum reduction of temperature.
