Energy Democracy V Fascism

I suppose cannibalism is the logical conclusion of rabidly overpopulated fascism. Some cannibals, perhaps all, ate their human prey not for typical nutritional reasons like other forms of digested nature, but more specifically because those dining hoped their prey's sacred powers would thereby become their own, conjoining for their unilateral augmentation, like fascism. At first blush this sounds like appalling inhumane sacrifice as I'm sure it shall remain til red sky dusks of fascism dawn hopeless red skies of climate cannibalizing pathology. It seems so obvious that positive communication and mutual cooperative trust would be a healthier path, and more likely of success to perpetuate this conjoining goal of energetic nutritional powers with human prey, colonies, slaves, employees, consumers, colleagues, neighbors, fellow civil and democratic residents, all cooperative WinWin citizens of Earth. Even more enlightened slave owners preferred, and sometimes invested in, multi-generational creolizing domestic bliss rather than harvesting the bought and paid for help. The value exchanges between outside energy and inside nutrition are best reflected on from both outside, LeftBrain convexly, and inside, RightBrain concave bilateral, views. Who could be an Ego predator who has never know themselves as a potential EcoPrey? Who prays to a higher Energy power without having succumbed to Lower powers? Human natural-spiritual co-intelligence, watching icy double-boundaries of a winter river give way to open flowing water in warmer weather, Also notices this river in colder weather, its self-identity as flowing water giving way to hardening and thickening ice-crystal edges, double-boundaries to Right and Left, West and East, North and South, and all polypathic directions of and for sacred nutritional energy exchanges, wu-wei transforming relationships in-between EnergyOut and NutritionIn, Ego and Eco, Yang and Yin. Even so, lacking this bilateral intelligence of a healthy WinWin river, sometimes warmer and wider systems and sometimes colder, narrower, denser, deeper networks of cooperative exchange, Human nature persists with LeftBrain over-heating hubris in choosing WinLose monoculturing excess, claiming to be the only important river of Energy and Sacred Nutrition. We move from Left-Right cognitive-affective dissonance through rabidly stressed-out paranoia, still devouring our own human and nonhuman prey, especially our own young and poor and vulnerable, our criminals and lazy-assed addicts victims all laissez-faire punished with our too-ready tolerance of retributive models advocating HolierThanThou self-righteous injustice. As if prisons or shackles of slavery and racism and sexism and fascism could be any more likely to lead to growing positive energy and nutrition within this river of society's succeeding generations than cannibalism led to any more value than another high protein meal. A fascist meal serving up a serious case of stinky shits after flushed down the nearest toilet polluting our sacred water then our sacred soil not to mention our acidifying atmosphere of growing pathological climates, inside and outside, inside against outside, Earth's river of Energy-SacredNutrition still flows inside our own EgoFascist FadingSilos, still declaring retributive holy wars, self-righteous inquisitions of suspicious immigrants, witchhunts against all Energy deemed unlike our nutritious EgoSelves. Women and gay and lesbian and transgender-bashing and excommunicating, disenfranchising and devaluing, raping and criminalizing, denouncing and murdering, hating and fear-mongering, and other lovely forms of socially tolerated retribution, Just wars declared by older males, but not wiser, against younger potential upcoming competitors. Desecrating jihads of unholiness, populist nominations and voting, applause and support for icons of defueling fear-mongering, anti-universal health of Earth AntiMessianic Violent Choices. Investing in retributive guns and prisons rather than restorative therapy and healing. Committed to punishing all potential WinLose competitors more than loving, with humbling gratitude, our cooperatively-help EnergyCommons of humane-divine Grace, potential WinWin restoratively active Hope, both Left-PolyPathic and Right-PolyPhonic, SecularLeft ethics and SacredRight aesthetics. Commitments to positive energy Yang with nutritional bilateral health investment flow of Yin, fractal-squared notnot (0)Sum ecopolitics Sometimes warmer and wider and deeper, sometimes colder and narrower and crystal-clear dense bilateral ego-ecoconsciousness Here for mutual restorative exchanges of nutritional living relationship and not so much deadly piracy and slavery and criminalization and cannibalism, racism and sexism and fascism and fake religiosity and fake patriotism Hiding far too Real PrimeRelational EnergyDemocracy.
