there is virtuous intent here, just as there was with philosopher kings but hoomans make for poor load bearing structures just like they make for poor batteries. they do not PRODUCE meaning/energy, they CONSUME it

the benefit of a clearly violent protocol of engagement such as when hunting a mouse of a duel between hoomans is that because the violence is legible it is CONTAINED.

a cult on the other hand has capacity for unbounded violence because it doesn’t think it is violent. just like tic-tacs claim to have no sugar even though they are pure sugar. each individual serving is rounded to 0

cults are neither good or bad. baby hoomans for example are born into Edens that are maintained by the threat of infinite violence should the child be threatened.

many everyday systems such ad country or company are also cults. though only to the individuals distant from the border. the politicians and sociopaths who manipulate the border see the border clearly. however for most the border is too abstract a concept

a border that is a million miles away is akin to a shadowy border. when the cell gets too big, it goes through civil war and divides to avoid implosion. the closer borders provide a sense of home that prevents individual actors from using other parts of the home as garbage dumps

a large cell is maintained only by artificially replicating the feeling of home by shortening the distance to the supreme leader. e.g. hanging his portrait in your house

this sense of constantly being watched and pressured to do the “right” things (according to the morality of the in-group) prevents the accumulation of free radicals that threaten to destabilize the system and plunge everyone into chaos
