Are you ignoring Norbert Wiener? Ashby? Shannon? Beer? Minsky? Kurzweil? 2nd-order cybernetics? Before Minsky was cryo-preserved he referred to "the #cybernetic worldview" being correct. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdu16JAzgw8 …

Seems broadly untrue, unless epistemology, ontology, metaphysics, ethics, etc. are all actually/secretly about self-actualization?

Yup, they are, and it's not "secret" -- it is all concerned with the nature of being and its flourishing/generativity. The question of being vs. non-being is in a way too elemental to theorize a lot. You kinda have to contemplate it and stick to simpler pre-theory.

is laughter/amusement a subset of self-actualization? (feeling some deja vu here)

I think it's about survival. That's why humor is so hard to philosophize.

Conservative political philosophy seems pretty clearly in the survival camp. Hobbes, Burke, Machiavelli. Life sucks. Make compromises to survive.
