      as Molds says, certain processes are auto-catalytic - they throw off energy from destruction, and that energy is used, like a speeding neutron, to trigger the fission of other things, thus repeating the cyclehttps://twitter.com/punch_sideiron/status/1405884883323473924 …

      2/ to expand on that, Elsewhere ™ a friend asked me "why DOES Cthulhu always swim left?" my answer was that the nature of leftism is tearing down hierarchies, and the nature of rightism is building them up. Rightism / conservativism can be modeled as a forest >>>

      3/ it grows very slowly, very organically, it build structure (often opaque / emergent / of unclear utility). This structure (a) creates inequality (the oak is taller than the blackberry bramble), (b) stores calories / BTUs / Joules.

      5/ leftism, on the other hand, (a) destroys inequality, (b) liberates calories / BTUs / Joules. Rightism / civilization is a forest. Leftism is a forest fire. Once a forest fire starts burning, it accelerates ... until the forest is gone.

      6/ TLDR: leftist is an autocatalytic process that levels by burning, and spreads as it does so. ...but while leftism can _spread_, it can not _rule_. The structure of the forest is necessary to loft leaves into the air, to capture photons.

      7/ This presents a natural challenge to leftists: their ideology can not generate wealth. There are two approaches to dealing with this: (a) parasitive / live off of wealth created by others (b) abandon leftism For the past century, the American left has done the former:

          8/ Bill Clinton perfected this model: be a stationary bandit, unleash the free market, and tax it. (Earlier lefties like FDR and Jimmy Carter regulated too much, thus choking the golden-egg-laying goose)

          9/ The second approach is to turn rightist and hierarchical. Look at the Soviets. In the early years they took their own propaganda seriously, got rid of officer ranks, formed worker collectives, etc. It worked hideously. Productivity requires hierarchy.

          10/ ...or, at the very least, inequality. So the Soviets brought back hierarchy and inequality. Factory managers, chief scientists, etc etc etc were not the equals of the janitors in their establishments.

          11/ So anyway, to answer the question "why does Cthulhu always swim left and never right?", you have to realize that this is the same question as "why do forest fires always burn DOWN forests but never build UP forests?" there is a process that builds forests, but it's not fire
