We, the people, need to take direct immediate action.

The Fruit of Western Democratic Corruption

Today, starvation as a weapon threatens 2 million Gazans.
I am Irish, so this has really meaning for me.
-
So, you might have noticed that the Western 'democracy' model is rooted in oppositional dynamics. A government and an opposition.  This is purposeful. It generates a struggle, a power struggle and everything I and others who study the matter know about power psychologies says that power struggles corrupt everyone who participates. 

They absolutely and purposefully prevent mutual aid and honest co-operation emerging. Imagine, if you will, a family torn in two between two parents, or between parents and grand parents, each set struggling for power. Will they ever meet the needs of their children whilst engaged in power plays? No.  They cannot meet their own needs, let alone the needs of others who are more vulnerable. They are concerned with meeting the needs of power.

As a result their children will try their best to survive with un-met needs by adopting coping strategies. They will grow up as wounded adults. 

Christianity/Capitalism/Monarchies and inheritance lineages deem the Nuclear Family as part of the 'natural order' precisely because a nuclear family is incapable of meeting the needs of of of its constituents - only a whole, healthy community can do that. A healthy community shares its resources. 

Hierarchy structures extract resources, they amass wealth-as-power. That is their basic operation dynamic. That is what they do. Extraction requires exploitation, exploitation causes harm, the harmed dissent and sometimes rebel.

So most of us are coping with a living situation that is determined by people who engage in power struggles, at some distance to us in our day to day lives. Their main concern is preserving their power. Anything that weakens, undermines, dilutes or devolves that power is understood and experienced as a threat, and treated accordingly. Palestine Action is not a terrorist entity.

"Unconditional Love without Accountability is Submission."

"Democracy without Accountability is Subversion."

We have been appealing, demonstrating, writing, wailing and crying. We are not yet exhausted.

Most of us in Europe, England, America are sitting in quite privileged situations.

The Palestinians have been, and continue to suffer intolerably. Gaza is an Intentional Hell.

The Zionist Colonisers have always intended to do this.

The Western Political Ruling Class have always denied this, and they now show us who and what they are.

Aroused by their Power.

Aroused by impunity.

Aroused by Cruelty.

Deliberate, intentional cruelty at scale.

Who are we?

What are we?

What must we do?


Please understand this : those who exercise Power over others who cause harm experience their impunity as an arousal,  a cascade of hormones and a sordid existential pleasure that floods their minds. 

This is what the  Epstein story is all about.

Their greatest fear is being held accountable and being rendered equal, normal, human, not special - it is an existential, irrational addiction fear and it lacks any empathy or resonance with any healthy adult humane being.

They who behave in this way are the greatest danger to Humanity. They must be held accountable and segregated from all society, as a matter of imminent health and safety for all of us, for all our children and their children to come.

We are the many, they are the few. They deploy bigotry to divide us.

Misogyny divides men and women. Racism divides working peoples. Poverty divides working people.

United, we can take the upper position in all our legislatures and we can then use the existing tools of our State and Taxes to hold those of the Ruling Class and Oligarchy that controls them accountable, to prevent further abuse of Power.

Only when we act in solidarity.

This has always been true.

Kindest regards

My Philosophy is informed by Alloparenting, Child Development, Egalitarian Culture Lived Experience

My Philosophy is informed by Alloparenting, Child Development, Egalitarian Culture Lived Experience and my own lived experience.


Solidarity emerges from the psychology of Alloparenting as at the primary behavioural separation of Hominins from Primates. Shared parenting it is believed drove and was supported through the evolutionary enlargement of our forebrains over millions of years. We now understand that the forebrain is critical in how we learn, especially how we learn to self regulate our emotional states, what ever they might be, in any given moment. We understand how trauma and chronic stress in early life undermines this process. Co-operation demands a cognitive capacity for emotional state self regulation that builds mutual aid communities.


Allan Schore's work on the development of the emotional self in infancy as a lived experience learning before language is acquired, through carer to infant interactions, is substantive. 


Robert Sapolsky too has done really fine work on human behaviour as product of millions of years of evolution as must as what happens in the milliseconds, seconds, minutes, days, weeks, years before any given action is taken.


Both are adept, well respected expert neuroscientists with a special interest in human behaviour. Both demonstrate the behaviour is not necessarily driven by genetics, as much as it is driven by lived experiential learning and circumstance.


Emotional Intelligence is something we all know something about, some more than others, most often through no fault or flaw of their own.


A metric for healthy Governance : I think of Healthy Governance as being focused on the practical realities of administering a communities shared resources for the equal benefit of all members of that community. 


Healthy governance sets the context of governance as operating within as a shared responsibility of duty of care for one another. In that regards healthy governance has to be evidence led at all times. 


Opinion and belief are insufficient to meet the responsibility of duty of care. Healthy governance sets the global context of governance as nurturing, caring for and stewarding of the habitat within which the community lives and from which that community draws living materials and other resources. 


We have ample evidence of healthy long standing sustainable egalitarian ways of living, egalitarian cultures, from 19th, 20th and 21st Century Anthropology but also including first contact accounts by the first colonial 'explorers' from European Powers who met many, many older cultures as they ranged across Earth seeking conquest and colonisation.


Some have written of what they call 'pre-conquest consciousness'. Can you imagine what it might like to be part of a human community that knows nothing of conquest? Where there is no memory of that scale of violence, where friendship and affiliation is the primary modality of social organisation?


Our children all deserve a future shared environment that is healthy, that they can look forwards to, rather than what most of our children now fear - an entire generation is growing up worried about their futures, and we are the ones who ought to be stewarding that space for them to grow into.


What are we doing?

"When we as a society begin to value mothers as the givers and supporters of life then we will see social change in ways that matter."

Ina May Gaskin


"The psychology of any given family, community or society is both revealed and perpetuated in how that family, community or society relates to and treats the children and the most vulnerable people. Change that and you can change everything. Liberation is all about how we relate towards one another."
