Time to revisit #PeterThiel’s mentor

The simplest solution to this problem of violence for early human communities was to polarize blame and hostility onto one member of the group who would be killed and interpreted as the source of conflict and hostility within the group.

The transition from the violent conflict of all-against-all would be transformed into the unifying and pacifying violence of all-except-one whose death would reconcile the community together.

#mimetic theory, the #scapegoat mechanism.

@DataDrivenMD @mollyjongfast This dynamic is prime #ReneGirard: the cycle of #mimetic contagion and the #scapegoat dynamic that thrives on a #demagogue type feeding on #scandal which blurs the distinction between #sacred and #profane.
> The people with power in the U.S. today — whose wealth has skyrocketed even as their fellow citizens’ prospects darken — have the power to do a lot to change that mindset.
#MurtazaHussain made me think of #AmitavGhosh on how views of #TheGoodLife are #mimetic , #PopeFrancis mentions the need for a change of #MindSet in his #Encyclical writings too.
> .. the conception of wealth.. [in]this framing of #justice and #equity is fundamentally #mimetic: “Until I have what the Other has, I am poor”; or “Not till I have what the Other has will justice be served.”.. this conception of wealth is founded on the #Other’s conception of #TheGoodLife, as a standard to be aspired to.. if the Other’s conception of the Good Life were to change, then the resonances would be felt everywhere.
