So together that sort of gets to the heart o fit.

Minds need to be busy. they will find something to be busy with.

(FB 1545418085 Timestamp) The general argument that I rely upon is that consciousness exists for the purpose of social interaction by observing, empathizing, sympathizing, negotiating, and cooperating, avoiding, or conflicting. Otherwise it is too expensive (brains are really expensive). In other words, the returns on cooperation are high enough for all that individual humans can afford expensive brains. Consciousness exists like language exists – to negotiate cooperation.

- GENETICS: The Female Way of War(Undermining)
- OLD WORLD: Abrahamism(Sophisms of false Promise, Pilpul and Critique)
- MODERN WORLD: Marxism (Pseudoscience) -> Postmodernism (Pseudorealism) -> Feminism (Denialism).
The Laws of Nature, and the Natural Law and the Organized application of science, law, and violence to force correspondence with them, in order to complete the transformation of man in to the immortal gods mastering nature that he imagined. LAW OF WAR: You must fight wars on your terms, not the enemy’s but you must defeat the enemy on his terms not yours.
