You want to genuinely satisfy your natural inspiration (connection)?

Then you participate equitably.
Otherwise, connection doesn’t come with you through the door of inequity

So inequity and authentic connection are (perhaps) fundamentally oppositional/antithetical to each other

So if you seek inequitability, you sacrifice true connection

If you seek true connection, you sacrifice inequity

Which is beautiful

Which is instructive for multiple reasons, one is in order to authentically satisfy the human inspiration for connection I think we must transform disintegrative power dynamics into equitable relation(s)

If Social media is not part of reality
Where does it exist?
Or is somebody claiming that it does not exist when they say it’s not part of reality ?

And notice that they don’t say that it’s not PART of reality they say that it’s not reality, without articulating that it’s not comprehensive reality

“I refuse to acknowledge my own unacknowledgement (that which I do not acknowledge)!

But I demand you acknowledge your own unacknowledgement (that which you do not acknowledge)!”

Notice also how this turns the pyramid/dynamic of merit upside down because it is positioning, the exception to the rule as the bottom, or as not even existing rather than positioning, the exception to the rule as the pinnacle of excellence, a.k.a. standard/model a.k.a. the top
November 12, 2025 at 5:45 PM
Notice how this relates to conflation and misrepresentation based on intentionally or unintentionally, denying true aspect ratios and exchange for some degree and/or relatively extremely disproportional aspect ratios, a.k.a. being way out of whack

…x: “oh well, aren’t you perfect. give me a break. and fine, maybe you don’t want to XYZ but everybody else does so you don’t really exist/matter/count.”
November 12, 2025 at 5:43 PM
x: “everybody wants to XYZ/rule the world”

o: “I don’t want to XYZ/rule the world, my life is living proof of that. I more frequently have turned away from power - even that which was being given to me based on (apparently) true merit - rather than sought it/fought for it”

if they ever acknowledge the truth of your reality to any degree they might say you’re just a weirdo or different or a freak or the exception to the rule which is another way of denying/erasing the human truth of ur embodiment & the absence of the necessity of the compulsions they are perpetuating
November 12, 2025 at 5:43 PM
so they think everybody is that way so they ignore/deny the truth/“counting” of your reality/choices (and perhaps even deny the existence of free will in order to let themselves off the hook)

And it’s amazing how much this relates with “the Lord of the rings” and how people can watch that movie/read that book and claim to understand it and yet still do exactly what the movie/book seems to warn against

So people seek out the heaviness so they can access the heft/PRIVY-LEDGE that comes w the ring/crown/crowd

But you can see tons of bitch ass mfers that want the HEFT but complain when they experience the associating HEAVINESS (& try to deflect/bypass it so they have all heft and no heaviness)
November 12, 2025 at 5:22 PM
“Heavy is the head that wears the crown”
=
“heavy is the head that wears the crowd”

Maybe also

“heavy is the hand that wears the ring”

And I think people select into that heaviness because it also means HEFTINESS/HEFT which is treated as “heaven” in the exploitative/abusive system of power
November 12, 2025 at 5:22 PM
And that is how we get tons of misrepresentative (untrue), hollow and headless bodies/patterns/(un)qualities/(un)character-is-tics in the places/positions/roles/poles that are supposedly otherwise reserved/earmarked for/claiming to be representation/being representative (truth)
November 12, 2025 at 5:18 PM
But we also must make sure we are not letting (unintent + intentional) deception slide because that obscures & compounds the inconsistency/incongruency & debilitates the growth/coming to awareness while hollowly occupying it w denial/bypassing/misdirection/deflection/presumptive projection instead
November 12, 2025 at 5:13 PM
And I think it is important to make sure that we are not making “perfection” our standard and also that we are not making “perfection be the enemy of good”
November 12, 2025 at 5:13 PM
All of these issues come down to inconsistency, incongruency and denying rather than acknowledging the inconsistency/incongruency one is embodying and perpetuating

And I think it is definitely a spectrum so there are infinite gradient/degrees of inconsistency/incongruency
November 12, 2025 at 5:13 PM
(which you are likely putting yourself in that position to access power/resources)
