Empowering Passion
In passionate psychology,
powers of proactive compassion
are generally thought of in personal
and familial
interdependently relational
perspectives.
In political science,
large-scale powers for proactive compassion
resist reactive competition to merely overpower the opposition,
preferring pro-active energy for liberal love
constrains against investments in conserving capital-hoarding capacities
feeding and fueling multi-generational greed of privileged inheritance,
Social altruism and political violence, passion's contrasting powers
might restoratively or retributively justify
ethically valid and morally effective resolutions
even if not immediately peaceful and universally democratic,
Robust political powers
are typically thought of as the great and mighty public sector
applying state and national perspectives,
stories,
power histories advocating cooperative public policies
and commercially marketing unnecessarily risky investments in egocentric competition chaos,
reductive consumerism,
conflicting materialism,
greed,
mendacity,
hubris,
anthro-centrism,
aggressive nationalism,
violent racism,
deadly fascism,
enslaving colonialism,
toxic patriarchalism, etc.
In psychology,
we can easily extend cooperative power
to neurology's integrity of positive energy,
active internal networking,
contrasted with disintegrity of negative power,
fading energy thoughts,
extinguishing co-empathic feelings,
feeding on internal climates of hostility,
paranoia,
rabidity.
In political science
we could extend power as analogous to economic energy,
cooperatively democratic investment in actively healthy compassion,
investment in integrity,
and a darker competitive run-away dysfunctional
nationalistic
supremacist energy unmindful of deadly ecological chaos,
delusional divestments away from nutritionally balanced systems,
disturbing dis-integrity of public sector negative energy,
entropic
nihilistic
health-threatening policies,
procedures,
competitive educational protocol,
psychological preferences for Win/Lose behaviors
and thinking and assumptions underlying unmitigated capitalism.
National health power, and not pathological disempowered feelings,
extend positive energy climates
of active democratic co-passionate WinWin missions
Antithetical to reactive
plutocratic capitalism,
kleptocratic exploitation,
A more narcissistic,
sometimes even sadistic,
sense of fear-mongering
hate-marketing
anger-imaging sedition
from global promise of healthy shared-power futures
for integrity's compassionate eternal ZeroSum energy
interdependence.
When our individual actions
do not reflect our personal powers for extending compassion,
then we can choose to train
and plan
and network for healthy positive multiculturing change
systems.
But, what to do
when public sector actions,
choices,
priorities,
do not reflect one's compassionate power/energy political training
committed to international EarthEmpowerment
deep learning,
wide-passioned teaching,
polypathic cooperative education,
co-passionately non-violent listening before speaking?
How do democratically faithful psychological individuals
and compassionate faith-in-action political communities
restore healthy peace
and non-sectarian informed justice for all EarthTribes?
Indigenous,
and yet emigrating;
Immigrant,
and yet already green sanctuaried;
Healthy-life pilgrims,
migrant laborers, producers, consumers, families,
evolving communities whose only talking-walking labor
is to survive competitive
commercialized
retributive justice normative educational systems
suspicious of diversely WinWin compassionate climates
and politically cooperative co-passionate teachers
advocating long-term regenerative synergy,
secular with sacred nature/spirit communions,
healthy wealth paradigms.
How do we cooperatively and resiliently continue
to financially and communally support
government leadership
compliant, not defiant,
with universally shared non-sectarian values
for a democratically inclusive health and happiness prosperity
of resilient energy systems
rooted in organically compassionate historic constitutions?
Where do we draw the compassionate line
around anti-democratic narcissistic violations
of ego- and eco-therapeutic constitutions?
Positively professed for health
and truly secular/sacred prosperous
non-sectarian happiness
enchantment
ecstasy
bliss
everyday loving and mindful passion.
