July 4th - Decolonise - Psychologies of Power - Neurolaw
The businessmen who ruled in the Colonies were the same group of businessmen who operated the Cromwellian Plantations in Ireland.
Those businessmen were oligarchs who had a long term objective of Colonising the whole of North America.
'Land without a people for a people without a Land.'
The had already institutionalised Racial Theory and Racism, as in White superiority, to divide the working population in the colonies, Europeans above all others, in their class war to prevent worker solidarity emerging to hold them accountable.
Native Peoples were not to be considered human, they were to be considered as animals.
The Plantation Owners had a problem around that in that Native Polities had treat arrangements with Britain and other European Powers that gave the Native Polities international state level legal status. They could form alliances with each other.
The Plantation owners understood that 'threat'.
Their objective then was to remove that 'threat' so that they could push westwards without any interference from European powers.
They knew well that pushing westwards would necessitate a well organised long term plan of intentional genocide, ethnic cleansing and settlement.
They needed to be able to say to all European Powers, especially The British Parliament within which many of the Irish and Colonial Plantation owners and shareholders sat, that 'it's none of your business, it is an internal American affair.'
USA has never been a healthy place for Native, Latino, African peoples.
Trump is merely all of that unveiled, so the delusion of the American Dream is clarified.
As to the Irish part in the conquest of The West, that's another story.
One that ought to be told, with exacting honesty, given what James Connolly wrote in 1908: "Let no Irishman throw a stone at the foreigner; he may hit his own clansman".
He wrote this to discourage xenophobia and remind workers that Irish and others people have historically been working class immigrants across the globe, and that the enemy of the working class is the Owner Class, the Plantation Oligarchy, the Colonial Mindset.
Today, do not celebrate America, advocate for robust de-colonisation.
It bridges brain science and the justice system, helping courts assess issues like criminal culpability, brain injuries, the insanity defense, and the reliability of eyewitness memory.
The intersection of neuroscience and the law fundamentally seeks to answer how human behavior should be legally regulated based on a deeper, scientific understanding of the brain.
"Given the nature of the family, community and society I was born into, and given everything that was done to me that should not have been done to me, and every that should have been done for em that was not done for me, it is no wonder I feel the way I do."
This is not to be cited as an excuse, rather it is a starting point of understanding dysfunctional and harmful human behaviour.
It makes no biological sense for any species to present with harmful behavioural patterns as a normalised dynamic. It makes no evolutionary sense in our current predicament, where a minority pose such a profound and imminent threat to the health and safety of our human species, our shared environment and, off course, all other living species.
The necessity of accurately understanding the problem is paramount.
"A problem incorrectly understood is insoluble, a problem correctly understood is half way towards a solution."

Fascism? Wealth-as-Power is a cultural invention.
Cognitive Warfare is psychologically abusive. We need legislation that criminalises it.

"Sadly, this is the reality of Climate Change." Really?
It's not that hard at all. Investment at pace can change everything in a few decades - NHS and Social Housing in UK changed everything for ordinary workers within a decade. China took 850,000,000 people out of poverty into middle class comfort in 30 years, gave them free education, free health care, stable housing and a progression towards more ecologically sound systems of production, with ever greater democratic engagement well beyond merely voting for pop politicians.
Wealth-as-Power as a Politically dominant Class can only exist when a minority exploit a majority. This is inherently an injustice. Injustices at scale cause immense avoidable harms. These harms generate dissent. Dissent must be persuaded. These harms sometimes generate resistance. Resistance must be crushed.
If Wealth-as-Power was willing to hold itself accountable, it would have to cede a lot of Power and vastly reduce its wealth, and capacity for wealth extraction through exploitation. Clearly Wealth-as-Power is unwilling to hold itself accountable to and for Humanity, including its own humanity.
If the people, leveraging democratic legislative powers, held Wealth-as-Power accountable they would eviscerate their Power and redistribute their Wealth, rendering them as ordinary people rather than a superior elite. Because the harm caused has been so immense, a degree of punishment - detention - would be and should be involved.
That is considered the most horrific existential threat by all people who have internalised Wealth-as-Power and operate its systems.
They rejected the opportunity out of the most venal of sentiments - arrogant sense of superiority and internalised sense of entitlement to rule and dominate.
Wealth-as-Power fears that kind of solidarity because that solidarity does not need wealth-as-power, in fact it undermines wealth-as-power from the ground outwards and upwards.
Every nations people could do this IF we build that warm humane connection as our core dynamic, intellectually, legislatively, practically.
I have always held that we are smart enough to begin to develop Mutual Aid Solidarity Thrivival Evolutionarily Respectful Systems we design and maintain, learning all the time, so that we can thrive as humane beings.
Here's one set of receipts for this assertion.
(*with edits by myself in 2026)
"This is not a report simply about constitutional change. It is a report about giving people real influence, *(real political and legislative capacity, responsibility and power to deliberate and design the policies) that determines the bread and butter issues which affect our lives. *Decision making power always comes with profound responsibilities.
The disengagement from politics described in these pages cannot be dismissed as the preoccupation of the chattering classes. Its substance has come from the voices of millions of people around the country who feel quietly angry or depressed.
When it comes to politics they feel they are eating stones. Principle and ideas seem to have been replaced with managerialism, public relations *and Cognitive Warfare.
It is as though Proctor and Gamble or Abbey National or *Britain's Got Talent! and Musks *Twitter are running the country.
And in answer to this malaise, the parties seem to promote the belief that all problems will be solved by having a new face replace the one that has fallen out of favour.
*And no Andy Burnham, you are not the Messiah!
The stability, prosperity and *justness of post-industrial societies; these must be leavened with reciprocity, moral obligation, duty to the community, trust and political engagement.
People in Britain volunteer; we run in marathons for charity; we hold car boot sales to raise funds for good causes; we take part in Red Nose days and wear ribbons for breast cancer or AIDS.
We sit as school governors, we do prison visiting, we read with children who have learning difficulties. We take part in school races and run the school disco. we marched against the Iraq war, we march for Palestinian Liberation and against Colonial Genocide, and we march and in favour of the countryside.
We march to advocate against sexual violence, misogyny and Patriarchy.
We sign petitions for extra street lights and more frequent bin collection. We send their savings to the victims of tsunamis and we most certainly want to end world poverty. What we no longer want to do is join a party or get involved in formal politics when it is *corrupted by Wealth-as-Power, as it clearly is.
And increasingly we see no point in voting.
This is a travesty for democracy and as it continues the price grows ever higher.
The only way to download power is by rebalancing the system towards the people.
This is the agenda. This is the theme of The Power Inquiry."
We need the political will to achieve this, and it is not emerging from the current political class. The Community Voluntary Sector, 2 million and more active people have the will, they have the intellectual rigour, they have the emotional intelligence, they have the practice of Governance to understand and meet peoples real needs - the political class and the wealth-as-power wealth holders are getting in the way."
Read the Report, be inspired, very inspired.
