Beginning of Part 2..
Here's an example, which is different-enougn in context, that it becomes culturally easier to see the forest & the trees:
IF the U.N. had enforced that in Palestine NO political/ideological warping/deforming of ANY civil service, of ANY social service, of ANY regulatory-process or rule, of ANY judging, enforcing, education, of ANYthing,
essentially force-suffocating ideological ( Kahneman1 mind, mere-animal mind, read "Thinking Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman & see that the whole world is forcing itself into an ocean-of-tantrum/pogrom, as ClimatePunctuation begins ramping-up through the next few decades )..
force-suffocating ideological-highjacking & ideological-undermining, & holding that force-suffocating in-place for a hard minimum of 2 generations, possibly 4..
( any "leaks" that accommodate ideological warping to displace considered-reason/Kahneman2 mind massively compromise/undermine the force-suffocation of that unconscious-mind-current which wants total-dominion of our lives/world .. and we let it have that dominion!
Foolish idiocy, which costs lives.. )
So, after hard-disallowing of Kahneman1/imprint->reaction/mere-animal mind's rule for enough generations, then the ideology/prejudice ( 2 sides of the same "coin" ) .. is force retired from authority, & the objective-generations have filled-in the roles, & .. then, eventually, a tipping-point is crossed, where it becomes self-sustaining/robust, see?
Anyways, Israel AND Hamas both wouldn't allow that, in Palestine.
As I've said before, what Hamas did in their assault of Israel was very DarkHexad: they sociopathically sacrificed all Palestinians for sake of the inevitable genociding-reaction from Israel, which, of course, will enforce that the Muslim world will focus until its reaction to Isreal's genociding becomes absolute, & then .. & then the prophecy in the Christian bible, that Israel gets annihilated comes true. Sometime before 2036 it'll happen, probably in the 2028-2036 period..
Here's a window into that particular bit:
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matt+24%3A11-21&version=AMP
The "standing in the holy place" of Daniel .. that was his inner place, his place of Faithing on what he knew as G-D, what I'd call OceanOfAllAwakeSouls, since my whole cosmology is different, but that particular infinity is itself..
Anyone who stands in earned holiness within their meaning ( a hormonic of meditation, or, to phrase the same suchness from a different "angle", a lower-harmonic of G-D: it's itself, differnet cultures label things differently.
It doesn't matter that Daniel was Jewish, or Atisha was definitely not, culturally: each earned some remarkable truths, by "standing in the holy 'place' within their deeper meaning" and it's the same for all: earn it, & it's one's own meaning.
Fail to bother, & it isn't, see? : )
So, Hamas sacrificed all Palestinians' world, for sake of a genociding that would happen later, in reaction against Israel's genociding of Palestine & Palestinians..
Which is more-machiavellian? Isreal of Hamas?
Both, sadly.
Which is more sociopathic/psychopathic?
Both, sadly..
you get the picture.
There's a "little" ebb/flow, which makes it look like the herd-beast ( our unconscious-ignorance nature ) sometimes is stronger, sometimes is weaker,
but it's actually that our underlying limbic/herdbeast nature is ebbing & flowing in seeming present, or seeming dominant, but it's just the appearance that's changing, not the underlying substance.
Steven Pinker foolishly bet on the appearance, in "The Better Angels of our Nature", it looks like.
He holds that violent-aggression just diminished sooo fundamentally, that that trend must continue!
No, he was looking at the slope of a "wave", & falsely-extrapolating that the wave wouldn't "return".
Until the tantrum/pogrom is finished, whether any survivors live, or not, our unconscious-mind's ignorance is committed to BREAKING all our world/lives/everything to its dominion/lordhood..
Same as any toddler.
The fact that our ignorance can outright-kill the entire biosphere, now, isn't sufficient to cause upright/maturity/transformation-in-our-unconscious-substance: only experience-induced-understanding can,
& the only experience which can induce/enforce understanding of our ignorance-nature is.. action->reaction.. being beaten to near-death by it, until its force forces our unconscious-mind-substance to transform from impenetrable-ignorance to .. among the few survivors of The Great Filter, if there are any .. transforms into a kind of "sublimation", changing humankind's survivors into people who ARE fundamentally different from our generation..
Russia/Ukraina, Israel/Palestine, Deep-South-white-supremacists-and-"christian"-supremacists/all-who-aren't-white-supremacists/"christian"-supremacists, Anglophones or Francophones against the other, Yugoslavia, if you're old enough to remember that, South Africa's apartheid, .. it's the same damn fundamental-script, just with little variations, for centuries & centuries & centuries of our history: WE HAVEN'T CHANGED yet.
And THAT is The Actual Problem(tm).
ClimatePunctuation's simply going to exponentially explode the intensity, the number-of-factors, the violent-reaction-to-food-insecurity, etc..
The Perfect Storm, iow.
See how the butchering of Russia by Putin is working? Civil-rights less & less..
same as in Israel..
same as in the Deep South..
same as in the polarization in Europe, with the far-right growing strength to re-create nazism's possession of it..
Asia's got its equivalents, Africa too ( did you know that Mussolini stole fascism from Marcus Garvey, a Black African nationalist? he had no problem with collaborating with the American white-supremacists: segregation was wanted by both, right? )
Until human-nature is force-changed, profoundly/fundamentally, then the cause of all this world's problems remains in control of the world, & the effects can appear "better" or "worse", but the unbroken-toddler's still driving our bus..
Force-growing-oneself up into fundamental uprightness, facing into karma, seems the only sane method, to me..
At least one can change one's own Eternity, then, right?
if everyone else among this world rejects self-transformation, because "the kingdom of god is without", as the materialists are certain, as the parable of "the prodigal son" symbolically-represented..
but it isn't without: it's within, & the only way to earn it is to conquer one's own unconscious..
and that is waht humankind's ignorance won't allow, or tolerate..
correcting/removing the cause of all our world's major problems..
So, Natural Selection is going to enforce the issue into significance in the rest of this century.
