Count Holdem@futurebird Short of making #BehavioralScience #CoreEducation, we'll continue to accelerate collapse.
Nu Modular@Natasha_Jay This is one of my litanies:
Make #BehavioralScience #CoreEducation, or #BackIntoCaves
Historians accurately claim ignorance, is the ultimate enemy. So why wouldn't the best #education, Behavioral Science, be the greatest solve?
Because ignorance is currently in the majority, and spreading... instead of the increasingly dire necessity, of its opposite.
So at scale, what's the "back into caves" equivalent?.. teach #permaculture alongside Behavioral Science - or, as that "dire" substitute. Because if you don't have the basic tools to survive, instead of the luxury of thrive, then you're deservedly EXTINCT.
@ExtinctionR Most Scandinavian countries have superior educational systems.
@infobeautiful @ourworldindata It helps to learn Root Cause Analysis: most diseases are caused by a range of inherited hardware, and the system they're born into, along with the level of ignorance.
The wealthiest 1% know this, and work to condition the masses into buying into their effects, rather than evolving from root causes - like nutrition. Ultraprocessed foods are largely rooted in disease effects. Brainwashing you into believing you're getting as much as you're giving - also a critical function of their oppression/#AbuseOfPower.
Any historian of note claimed, rightfully, that ignorance is the ultimate enemy. That's why teaching single-solve mindsets in Western #Capitalism is crucial in maintaining subjugated subservience. Finally realizing that millions of years of evolution, was due to eating healthy proteins and carbs, is too late when you're lifespan is already crippled by ultraprocessed foods, antiquated baseload power/#FossilFuels, and addiction to cell phones.
@skinnylatte It would be a whale of a time, directly opposing humans who do the direct opposite.
@quixoticgeek Then we get to the greater root causes: a Mastodon account is more valued, from roots to branches, by the content consistently adding value to the middle-masses of people.
Should the wealthiest 1% be likewise held accountable?.. and replaced through repeated failure?
@VeroniqueB99 Roots feed the branches.
Any historian of note has correctly claimed that ignorance, is the ultimate enemy. Enough MAGAts voting for this current administration, proves this point.
@baronvonj @georgetakei Your stagnant 'belief' is exactly why so many democrat/republican duopolists, are collapsing the US.
Most modern industrialized nations have more than two parties, for that very reason. Capitalistic greed is the driving force to minimizing sustainable differentials, and now it's not only the poorest class in the US suffering from these abuses of power, it's the middle classes as well - a long developed grift from the upper 1%, wealthiest oppressors.
EvoScale@alexanderdyas On the other hand, legacy and leaving the world better for next generations, is part of "afterlife" - especially if you're a parent.
This is where having #BehavioralScience as #CoreEducation would be exponentially beneficial: Set Theory teaches parent and child subsets, that make this math much easier to process and delegate proportionally. Single solve mindsets derived from failing Capitalism countries, is too much of a drag coefficient leading to further destabilization. We're long past due for an #education #revolution.
