      this is a matter of selection pressure; the ones whose brains couldn't work out some way of hacking their self-perception are mostly dead now. higher up, a very popular solution is celebrity culture, where you identify with a figure of worship and participate in their status

      an enormous amount of activity is continually devoted to growing and nurturing subcultures that are large enough to sustain a sense of status and small enough for that sense of status to be accessible, then trying to manage that balance against the vicissitudes of churn

      most of culture war can be usefully viewed as people trying to build senses of themselves as important, which gets particularly ugly when your sense of yourself as important is based on your sense of specific other people as unimportant

      it appears to be natural to react to other people trying to puff up their sense of their importance with annoyance, but i feel like it would be helpful to keep in mind that as awkward and ham-fisted as this behavior might get, it's a matter of raw fucking survival for all of us

      Now we're getting close to understanding what the real question is. This is a fundamental component of the question that actually matters. Where can I go to find more of this? I think I may have contributions to make. That or I'm insane, but isn't that the game?

      Well, if we want it and it doesn't exist, there's one obvious course of action. Not the nuts and bolts of how, mind you, but an image of Zerzura in the distance, and the acceptance of nothing but sand as far as the eye can see, and two legs with feet.
