  1. I was trying to say that this mental activity has a hard time accessing the subject world of introspection intuition, both in an individual and a collective way (I realized that I've misspelled a lot of words in that comment, I'm gonna edit a bit later)
  2. Interesting... seems like you're trying to disassociate as much as possible the "subject" from its "behavior" and see what comes out of this... right now the best I can do is to contemplate about it...??
  3. Oh.. okay now I get it! I would describe as a mental processing (wiring(?)) Which "designs the brain" to become "highly pragmatic" and "overly efficient" in the "objective world", but it has a hard time accessing the subject world of introspection and intuition (most the time), and, because this function is lacking to some degree, there is a gap in relating to other subjective minds in our human interactions... I know I'm not being able to explain eloquently, it is a tricky thing to try to access other people's "being-in-the-world" so to speak... and even if do , I'm aware that I'm projecting a lot of my biases and impressions/experiences about reality that might relate to this topic... But thanks for asking @Nahm! it was a very interesting (and challenging) thought exercise... Here is a video by Jordan Peterson, posted by @Carl-Richard, in which he gives more insightful examples of what might be happening inside the mind of an autistic person.
  4. Hello @Nahm I must confess that I did not understood your question?, could you explain me a little more what do you want me to explore??
  5. I definitively loved this video!??? It gives us a vMEME Yellow clear picture on Diplomacy and Geopolitics regarding China's projects on infrastructure in developing countries. much beyond the gossip/hearsay and fearmongering of vMEME Orange opinionated journalism...
  6. Chile is going through some radical changes right now, both as a government and as a society
  7. I found this video after reading a thread posted by @Carl-Richard about systems thinking. This model is a very reliable source at understanding the child's development , and what is possible to happen with his or her psyche, depending on how well his or her ecosystem (friends, family and society at large ) manages to give them a healthy upbringing in many aspects of human affairs as they age. It also works for full grown adults as well?.
  8. An excerpt from the book "The Fifth Discipline ". Very good for those who want to learn more about systems thinking! ??? "Often we are puzzled by the causes of our problems; when we merely need to look at our own solutions to other problems in the past. A well-established firm may find that this quarter's sales are off sharply. Why? Because the highly successful rebate program last quarter led many customers to buy then rather than now. Or a new manager attacks chronically high inventory costs and"solves" the problem—except that the salesforce is now spending 20 percent more time responding to angry complaints from customers who are still waiting for late shipments, and the rest of its time trying to convince prospective customers that they can have "any color they want so long as it's black."Police enforcement officials will recognize their own version of this law: arresting narcotics dealers on Thirtieth Street, they find that they have simply transferred the crime center to Fortieth Street. Or, even more insidiously, they learn that a new city wide outbreak of drug-related crime is the result of federal officials intercepting a large shipment of narcotics—which reduced the drug supply, drove up the price, and caused more crime by addicts desperate to maintain their habit. Solutions that merely shift problems, from one part of a system to another, often go undetected, because those who "solved" the first problem are different from those who inherit the new problem." "In George Orwell's Animal Farm, the horse Boxer always had the same answer to any difficulty: "I will work harder," he said. At first, his well-intentioned diligence inspired everyone, but gradually, his hard work began to backfire in subtle ways. The harder he worked, the more work there was to do. What he didn't know was that the pigs who managed the farm were actually manipulating them all for their own profit. Boxer's diligence actually helped to keep the other animals from seeing what the pigs were doing. Systems thinking has a name for this phenomenon: "Compensating feedback": when well-intentioned interventions call forth responses from the system that offset the benefits of the intervention. We all know what it feels like to be facing compensating feedback—the harder you push, the harder the system pushes back; the more effort you expend trying to improve matters, the more effort seems to be required."
  9. This one is a little difficult to categorize... Because it envolves the clash between two kinds of governments: vMEME RED/Blue authoritarian vs vMEME Green progressive... But it seems to me that the invited guest shares a vMEME Green Worldview, so I decided to put the video here, but I found this video a little more nuanced to classify...
  10. "A truly profound and different insight is the way you begin to see that the system causes its own behavior." Donella Meadows
  11. You don't have to agree. This is a thread in which we share Green values for the purpose of enriching our knowledge/perception about that particular stage of the spiral .. Whether we agree of disagree with some of the vMEME Green content displayed here, that's up to us.
  12. Bernardo Kastrup's center of gravity is actually vMEME Yellow. But his field of study comes across vMEME Turquoise principles. I'm sharing this particular video because it's the one in which he goes at length trying to explain the significance of vMEME Turquoise, in our perception of reality, from the point of view of vMEME Yellow, which I find it quite interesting...
  13. I always found the development of Transformers Toys a beautiful example of Mastery in Design
  14. "Don't confuse the description of a thing for the thing itself.." That's the biggest problem of vMEME Orange Scientism...
  15. Thanks for the recommendation @Snader! Brazilian movies are very good at tackling these vMEME Red social issues. I loved the trailer and I'm eager to watch the movie now!??

  17. Enemy Song by Imagine Dragons I wake up to the sounds of the silence that allows For my mind to run around with my ear up to the ground I'm searching to behold the stories that are told When my back is to the world that was smiling when I turned Tell you you're the greatest But once you turn they hate us Oh, the misery Everybody wants to be my enemy Spare the sympathy Everybody wants to be my enemy (Look out for yourself) My enemy (look, look, look, look) (Look out for yourself) But I'm ready Your words up on the wall as you're praying for my fall And the laughter in the halls and the names that I've been called I stack it in my mind and I'm waiting for the time When I show you what it's like to be words spit in a mic Tell you you're the greatest But once you turn they hate us (Huh) Oh, the misery Everybody wants to be my enemy Spare the sympathy Everybody wants to be My enemy (look, look, look, look) (Look out for yourself) My enemy (look, look, look, look) (yeah) (Look out for yourself) Uh, look Okay, I'm hoping that somebody pray for me I'm praying that somebody hope for me I'm staying where nobody 'posed to be P-p-posted, being a wreck of emotions Ready to go whenever, just let me know The road is long, so put the pedal into the floor The enemy's on my trail, my energy unavailable I'ma tell 'em hasta luego They wanna plot on my trot to the top I've been outta shape, thinkin' out the box, I'm an astronaut I blasted off the planet rock to cause catastrophe And it matters more because I had it not Had I thought about wreaking havoc on an opposition Kinda shocking they wanted static with precision, I'm automatic Quarterback, I ain't talkin' sacking Pack it, pack it up, I don't panic Batter, batter up, who the baddest? It don't matter 'cause we at ya throat Everybody wants to be my enemy Spare the sympathy Everybody wants to be My enemy Oh, the misery Everybody wants to be my enemy Spare the sympathy Everybody wants to be my enemy Pray it away, I swear I'll never be a saint, no way My enemy Pray it away, I swear I'll never be a saint
