THE CAUSE AND SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM OF ALIENATION AS MANKIND EVOLVES
I think I might help you with a bit of history and understanding of the problem that man encounters when producing prosperity – and subsequently choice:
1. the early agrarian civilizations produced sedentary life and reduced dependence upon one another that had been necessary as hunter gatherers.
2. The bronze age civilizations that first formed cities produced divisions of labor, class hierarchies, elites, and authoritarianism for the first time 3. Those caused the need for religious order to create standards by which people cooperated.
4. Those early civs rose and fell a wave after wave of barbarians tried to conquer those cities and civilizations to capture control of the government because the government controlled the means of production. The bonze age collapse was the result of one of those sets of barbarians (europeans).
5. When trade was reestablished after the bronze age collapse, and the greeks established their empire to insure that trade, they invented money. Money further eradicated interpersonal dependency, interpersonal relationships.
6. In response we found the age of gransformation, meaning the age of new religions creating a standard of behavior for cooperation between many divergent groups, so that the scale of our prosperity from trade, and the accumulated alienation of 1-5, could be moderated. This is why most of those religions are a form of sedation against alienation (they create mindfulness).
7. While we should have hit the industrial revolution about the year 300 to 600, the great migrations and the cancer of the abrahamic religions, by suppression of alienation, in turn, suppressed the spread of reason, empiricism, technology, and political order, creating a dark age.
8. Once again, it was europeans who caused the reformation, when they recovered classical knowledge and gradually created the empirical, commercial, financial, trade, scientific, and finally industrial revolutions. Yet this resulted in another episode of alienation. And yet again the marxist attempt to modernize the abrahamic religions from supernatural into pseudoscientific form nearly created another dark age, that thankfully europeans and sciences have begun to resist despite it’s popularity with women, immigrants, lower classes, and the academic cum political priesthoods.
9. Immigration immigration and diversity cause increases in frication and cost necessary for the formation of the high trust necessary to produce mindfulness in a population. It is the absolutely worst strategy possible.
EXPLANATION
The Lesson: the problem we face in our evolutionary process is creating deliberate institutions of cultural formation to train ourselves into adapting to every increase in the scale of energy capture and conversion.
Thus it is a problem of institutions and knowledge and not a problem of institutions and anti-knowledge. So innovation and creativity in institutional development are the solution to the problem of ever expanding alienation. We must move from natural forces causing us to work together in bands and tribes, to deliberate engineering our incentives to work together in the absence of those natural incentives. Simple folk try regression. Not so simple folk try innovation. Because the result of regression. whether supernatural religion, pseudoscientific economics and politics, the result is the same: dark ages of ignorance, poverty, hard labor, starvation, disease, suffering, child mortality, and early death.
There have been only a few great periods in human history and they are the Pax Romana, The Pax Britannia, and the Pax Americana. That’s the lesson we must learn from history.
End the left’s lies forever whether sophistic, pseudoscientific, or supernatural, BUT heavily invest in mindfulness, fitness, education, and socialization in order to make each leap in our standard of living possible.
The uncomfortable lesson is that of the Greeks’ and Taleb’s: you teach people to harden, not to soften. In other words supportive competition is the means of mindfulness – it is not withdrawal, escapism, and illusion.
