How pleasant that quantum mechanics shows that choice is our birthright, baked into the physics.

I dreamt of the Kochen-Specker Theorem. The theorem states, in some way, the obvious: no one can live two lives at once. But despite motivating the definition of a key aspect of what makes quantum mechanics "spooky", intriguing, it's not well-known and subtler to explain than its brother Bell.

20th ct. resilience culture was characterised by *rugged individualism* – how can I decouple myself from systemic risk through independent production and supply chains?
21st ct. resilience culture will be *opportunistic commutarianism* – how do I leverage immediate circumstances effectually?

Thermodynamics is the basis for all horror.
Did you know that every quantum measurement can cause a back-reaction depending on the degree of incompatibility with your current perspective? All of your alternative selves are annihilated in µS from Ψ. The universe eats the difference.

Why do we allow ourselves to become automatons?
Thomas Metzinger spoke of the risk of "disenchantment" as a result of the neural reduction thesis, becoming physical reflex. Its dual is just as poor: emotional chaos slaves itself to unpredictability and decay.

Imagination can be seen as analogous to the absorber wave in the Transactional Interpretation of quantum mechanics. It is a dynamic that sets up an evolution of future boundary conditions of a system's evolution. Reality is forwards and backwards.
Imagination tenses in the future subjunctive.

The objective is to move to spontaneity, in effect non-defensiveness, non-inhibition, non-performativity, where emotional energy finds use in growth.
This is why I claim empathy and innovation are anchored in human character. When there is nothing to manage, all you have is the truth.

The reward for ego acceptance is energy. Massive amounts of psychological energy are inhibited like in a capacitor when ego defenses are employed, then move out explosively, which is effective for its purpose of discharge, but not of use.

There are powerful universals to human experience. They cross gender, race, and status. They are systematically denied in the current world model. But they need skillful handling to found to the new model, in blood and tears.

The balance is being able to be seen without second order consequences to relationships. Group therapy achieves this balance.
It brings vulnerability between strangers, which augments the impact of revealing trauma. Not only being seen, but seen as not alone. Facilitators handle the stress load.

Family, friend, or partner dynamics are fragile to unskillful or un-facilitated expulsions. Ego defenses often root in close relationships, and even when not so, they project onto close relationships easily. This puts "normal" socialization at risk when introducing a factor of vulnerability quickly.

This requirement to accept the failures of the ego is extremely challenging, and necessary. The container of group therapy is precisely the mode that optimizes for this emotional ego expulsion best.

Thus one can only dissolve the ego by identifying with its failures rather than its attempts at success, while also identifying with the integrated self.

The ego practices a defense, the defense inevitably backfires, and then the ego defends itself against backfiring, since the ego failing is a truth about itself that would dissolve it.

The ego is a defensive construct, thereby a fearful construct. So negativities or low key manipulations are based on fear but have to be accepted as truthful in their own right to actually change. It is this acceptance that carries the emotional charge, the poison and medicine for expulsing ego.

The next paradigm shift involves seeing fears as information. This centres trauma work as critical in the new age, to move past the codependence and greed that redirects and obscures the combination of empathy and innovation at root in every soul, every human being.

An important principle is technological inversion.
Given some technology meant to dominate or harm humans, what happens when inverting the control? Does eliminate its inhumane effects?
This shouldn't be hard. AI is the ultimate dual use tech. Its economic models incentivize harmful application.

RE: Topological Synchronization
What if the #polycrisis and #metacrisis are empowering for individuals rather than disempowering? A phenomena whose circumference is everywhere and centre is nowhere: there's nowhere to walk but wherever you want.
