people think the model is of growth, but it's actually of black holes sucking everything up! iterated matthew effect. it's just gotta change, man. everything starts from the black! just remember that!

Or "dark matter whose gravitational effects bend our social fabric". Basically they've subverted the rules of the system to fill their pockets. A small slice of the picture is the "Moneyland" narrative: https://www.theguardian.com/news/2018/sep/07/the-real-goldfinger-the-london-banker-who-broke-the-world …pic.twitter.com/6INuwoFa7w

exactly. i am starting to believe that money has legit *physical* dark energy. i thought it was just psychosocial, but it seems we are in a coherent quantum state to some extent, and as long as that is true, macroscopic "quantum" effects / synchronicity is possible: magic

I like to see the economy as an organism actually, and money as blood... innovation, engineering, learning is the food... there are various organs, fighter people making the real difference are white blood cells, enzymes etc. but there's this huge mass of cancerous growth

this is an extremely powerful metaphor, i think it is close to right, but, it is also an ecology. and it is more healthy the more it is an ecology, and less healthy the more it is an organism. see: scale, by Geoffrey Westpic.twitter.com/aRCazaK9PL

True, yes actually even for the person/organism metaphor, it is becoming increasingly obvious how any complex organism is an ecology of trillions of cells, half of them belonging to the organism (so sharing the DNA), and half of them the microbiome bacteria etc. in symbiosis.

even a cell! not only are there mitachondria, but rna competes for expression epigenetically!

yes, collaboration, symbiosis, synergy... that's how evolution of the consciousness has progressed, at various levels of magnification :-) & collective learning is how the human society is several orders of magnitude more advanced than any individual human being.

an individual modern human is no more intelligent than the stone age human. we are reaping the benefits of a connected society that does collective learning, although, we are also paying the price for forgetting our history & the fundamentals. big history: recommended for all!

in fact, a stone age human is probably much more intelligent than a modern age human. the stone age human could do alright in the modern world, most modern humans would literally die in the stone age. really we need to stretch into the past and into the future simultaneously!
