Unsettling Spirits

Oddly unsettling, how The UnHolonic Spirit compels conservative, defensive feelings of autonomous ego-righteousness when we see our physically healthy robust selves elitely privileged, maybe even aristocratically WinLose kleptocratic as short-term necessary for ego's Business As Usual convenience. The Yang-expedient violent communicator, Creator of WinLose GetReal natural systems, privileged predator success over non-elite prey, failing myth-tellers, perpetual provokers, defenders of privileged competitions, economies and polities and even domestic family relationships, parent v adolescent child, where Daddies know best Especially after sustaining chronic stress from State-sponsored military-industrializing unschools marketing hate xenophobic automated rifle-bearing selling fear of Aliens feeding on claustrophobic LeftBrain dominant anger, fed and profusely watered, engorged Anger about what, though? I am never oppressively/suppressedly sure. Separation from MotherEarth's health/wealth WinWin nondualistic ego/eco-balancing internal/external theological/ecological warm wet womb of nutritionally promising happier healthier lifetime days? An originally radical democratic nurture-economy does feel far afield, this side of Kingdom's Paradise, holding a gun to guts of threatening enemies while fearing anonymous threats from unruly LoseLose capitalized heads of enemies. Maybe fear that God the Yangful Father seems more frighteningly co-present, especially since pathological climate pollution science came out of Her Gaian ecofeminist closet, Angry Father feels monoculturally more powerful than healthy-wealth flowing multicultural HolySpirit of non-elite everyday creolizing co-operations casually experiencing positive WinWin deviant psychological balance. Those seeking to bicamerally restore democratic justice rather than redistribute punishing plutocratic extractions by overpowering these despairing poor we will always have with us to clean our WinEgo/LoseEco toilets, pick our prickly/gooey cotton, build our empirical LeftBrain dominant RightBrain prominent pyramids of ego/eco-empowerment. Oddly unsettling, how The UnHolonic Spirit compels conservative, defensive feelings of autonomous ego-righteousness when we see our physical pyramid-productive selves elitely privileged for WinLose competitions, rather than WinWin healthy co-operations.
