"No Individuals, No Morality"

"If only it were all so simple! If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?"
- Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Fanatical Fundamentalism vs. Ironic Distance

*In Natural Selection, Altruism (self sacrifice to save others) only benefits local family members (w/ shared genes)(kin selection)... not the Entire Species or 'others' at a distance.  It therefore has both Proportion and an Ordo Amoris

Natural Selection is the Universe's "Biological Imperative".  Morality, on the other hand, is more a Form from Platonic Space intended to Subjectively represent this Imperative, but can only yield the "Appearance" of it (to Mind).  This "Appearance/ Semblance" is therefore Falsifiable.
...and Morality Requires Informed Choice.  If Compelled, Coerced, or Otherwise Virally Induced from the Outside (ie - an extended phenotype from a cordycep), it's not Moral.  Morality is a freely selected and informed choice.  That's what make's its' possessor "Good" or "Bad" and it's choices "Right" or "Wrong".  To Reiterate the theme one last time:

"No Individuals, No Morality"
Groups have "Laws and Ethics", NOT "Morals" (and they may not always be congruent)

CCP Red Wedding in China?

from Google AI:
The "Red Wedding" refers to a shocking massacre in Game of Thrones where Robb Stark, his mother Catelyn, and his army were betrayed and slaughtered at a wedding feast by their supposed allies, the Freys and Boltons, orchestrated by Tywin Lannister, violating sacred guest right for revenge and to end the Stark rebellion. The term signifies any event where a celebration turns into bloody betrayal, referencing the "red" of blood spilled amidst supposed feasting and unity, and also has historical roots in real massacres like Scotland's "Black Dinner".

Key Aspects of the Red Wedding:
  • The Betrayal:  Lord Walder Frey, angered by Robb Stark breaking a marriage pact, orchestrated the attack with Roose Bolton and Tywin Lannister's backing. 
  • The Violation: It brutally broke "guest right," a sacred custom of hospitality, turning a wedding meant for unity into a scene of horrific slaughter. 
  • The Victims: Robb Stark, his mother Catelyn, his pregnant wife Talisa, and most of his Northern forces were killed. 
  • The Symbolism: The name "Red Wedding" symbolizes the shocking contrast between a wedding's joy and the ensuing bloodshed, with "red" representing blood. 
Inspiration & Broader Meaning:
  • Historical BasisAuthor George R.R. Martin drew inspiration from real historical events, particularly the Black Dinner (1440) and the Massacre of Glencoe (1692) in Scotland. 
  • Figurative Use: The term is now used more broadly to describe any situation involving unexpected, brutal betrayal, carnage, or a massacre disguised as something festive or peaceful.

Abundance Theory Defies Law of Supply and Demand

Managed Housing Scarcity to Keep Real Estate Values Inflated


from Google AI:
  • "Abundance theory" refers to several related concepts, primarily a modern political/ economic philosophy (Abundance Liberalism) advocating massive investment in supply (housing, energy, transport, science) to solve scarcity, contrasted with older ideas of a limitless, faith-based mindset or ecological views of vast natural resources, all generally aiming for growth by removing bottlenecks rather than focusing solely on redistribution.

    Political & Economic "Abundance Agenda"
  • "Core Idea: A supply-side progressivism focused on creating abundant resources (housing, clean energy, tech) to overcome scarcity, reduce costs, and improve living standards, especially in "superstar" cities.
  • Proponents: Popularized by journalists like Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson (authors of the book Abundance), it seeks to solve problems like high housing costs and healthcare access through innovation and growth, not just welfare
  • Policy Focus: Building more houses, public transit, power plants, and investing in science, challenging regulatory hurdles and "Not In My Backyard" (NIMBY) opposition.
  • Political Goal: To offer a positive alternative to traditional left-right divides, appealing to moderates and addressing issues beyond just redistribution.
  • Philosophical & Mindset
  • "Abundance"Mindset: A belief that the world offers limitless possibilities, focusing on creating wealth and potential rather than scarcity.
  • Ecological View: Seeing the Earth as a vast system of material flows, where technology can tap into natural abundance, as described in some philosophical texts.
  • Other Meanings
  • Factor Abundance (Trade Theory): A technical concept ineconomics defining a country's relative endowment of production factors (like labor or capital) for international trade.
  • Relative Species Abundance (Ecology): The proportion of different species within an ecological community, a core concept in biology.
