Stomping On Radicals

One does not stamp out radicalism any more than one outspends capitalism or fights successfully against militarism or overpowers totalitarianism. We might fade out radicalism, co-invest capital in cooperative objectives for health, discern together removing threats of mutually assured violence and democratize polycultural empowerment by inviting therapy through all natural-spiritual nondual valuables, dynamics and animations within Earth's ecosystemic universally open spacetime network. How does it help to invite healing by calling profound mental unbalance cowardice? Why choose the epithet "coward" to describe terrorizing violent behavior intent thoughts against those who intend no active harm to radicalized perpetrators? Perhaps this is cowardly behavior but this is not the first or most significant word coming to my mind. This speaks of fear and anger and chronically invested misanthropic hatreds, fueled by competing over-heated environments, internal and external. To speak cowardice to paranoia and ego-distorted sickness only adds fuel to flames we would more therapeutically abate by inviting cultures of deep learning integrity profoundly sacred ecology multiculturally and polypathically seen and known and felt, inviting mutual embrace of fears and angers and lingering learned distrusts. Chronic stamping on each other, over each other, causes further radicalism. Chronic over-investing in WinLose strategies caused ravages of capitalism, dimming richer denser potential within cooperative ownership and investment of both capital and equity, deductive minds and inductive hearts. Chronic climates of advanced industrial militarism cause further defaults toward competing by violent fighting and threat. Chronic ecopolitical overpowering of those who feel angry and scared, left out and behind, fearful and terrified by violence, their own and others' stamping and stomping, invites further totalitarian plutocracies, rather than profoundly radical healthy cooperatives of growing nutritional democracy of and for and by and through fair integrity, cooperative trusting liberty outshining rights of static freedom.
