Whole Earth Patriotism

What is patriotism?

Pride of and for national, and maybe cultural, superiority.
Maybe superior health caring integrity?

What is nationalism?

Usually positive values about monocultural 
monotheistic
monopolistic
monochromatic identity,
but I guess national health charism
could also include negative evaluations,
begging for more international 
interdependent freedom 
empowered to do wealth good.

What is resiliently good?

Not evilly bad?

Again?

Well, OK, whatever 
falls into what we agree is not unhealthy
reversing rich polycultural recycling 
wealth power with 
health power over
deadening despair.

Have we not had considerably too much experience 
with national-cultural superiority complexities
leading to totalitarian toxic,
irritatingly irreligious outcomes?
Why can't we redefine patriotism
as eco-political EarthTribe
neurosensory win/win maturity?

I suppose we could,
but maturity based on what standard of not immature?

Well, where do we now base national winning superiority 
versus loser inferiority?

Some economists start with gross trends 
in National Production.

Could we at least compare GNP to Gross National Consumption?
Maybe look at this prime liberating/conserving trend 
across the past several years
of EarthTribe health care
resiliently re-connecting co-investment

So performance-based WholeEarth patriotism 
rises and falls 
with whether national production balances consumption? 
Of what?

Of healthy bodies and wealthy minds, I would neurosystemically guess.
But, I suspect robust inter-religious 
compassion/pleasure patriotism 
win/win mind/body peaks 
where enlightened consumption 
and empowering production
approach co-arising bilateral 
Non(0)-AnthroMind/EarthBody 
re-connecting wealth/health balance

Within EarthTribe's resonant
RightWing dissonant
neurosystemic trauma
reducing our interdependent web of sentient life
nurture/nutrition
passion/pleasure
for panentheistic peace warriors.

So you suggest re-rooting narcissistic nationalism 
through a more EarthJustice patriotic 
cooperative polyculturing muse identity,
more mature win/win health caring 
song and dance resolutions
 
More robust and resiliently trauma-informed 
nationalVoice/internationalChoice
for resonant EarthMothering 
sacred regenerativity.

Because regenerativity, rather than secularizing degenerativity,
invites increases in multiculturing healthy relationships 
and wealthy co-invested transactions,
while nationalistic anthro-superiority sparks racism and elitism
xenophobia and entitled piracy 
enslavement
rape
divestment
abuse and neglect
disassociation
disowning yesterday's alien 
wild 
indigenous animistic savages.

Nationalistic patriotism suboptimizes 
inclusive re-connecting
re-ligioning cooperative opportunities
for indigenous body-health/mind-wealth 
nondualistic redevelopment 

We inter-religiously need 
sacred panentheistic wisdom
as our Business As Usual co-investment pride
of shared Golden Rule purpose
speaking of peaking deep neurosensory
enlightened passion
and empowering pleasure re-memory

Ecological health,
political cooperative wealth,
grow with multi- and poly-cultural win/win creolizing,
not win/lose colonizing
patriotic/matriotic rebalancing outcomes;
while monocultural patriarchalism produces racism and sexism
and anthro-hubris inequitable incomes 
and unsustainable ecocidal outgos.

Co-responsibility nurtures re-ligioning integrity,
just as cultural elitism accelerates illusions of biological superiority
through short-term competitions for short-term profits  
harming remaining EarthTribe ecosystemic players,
anti-ecological patriarchal capital-headed monotheism, 
when healthy growth always
and everywhere re-invests 
toward enlightened crown
and empowering root-systemic
panentheistic EarthTribe
sacredly organic density.

Nationalism grows antipathic unhealthy distrust
when we need to grow co-empathic wealthy trust
of inclusive inter-religious liberation,
mutually revered 
win/win conserving creolization,
rather than patriot-idolized
monotheistic colonization.

As cooperative EarthPeace globally emerges
we find ourselves playing WinWin long-term co-investment games
with more multicultural mediating 
passion/pleasure
health-wealthy
LiberalMind/ConservationalEmbodied
polytheistic Non-Otherers.

Interdependent listening 
and co-investment expands
across oceans and EarthJustice internets.
Regenerative dense mutuality
grows in EarthMother's bilateral hemispheric scope
extending matriarchal family 
DNA depth of health care 
regenerative intent.


So what is your idea of true patriotism again?

EarthPride and humane humility 
of and for resiliently regenerate climates
of multicultural sacred non-sectarian co-investment
over degenerate too-secularized 
too-monoculturally segregating 
inferiority of anthro-supremacist
unnatural anti-nature

Self-pardoning irreligious elite entitlement rights 
to punish self-righteous divine monotheistic supremacy,
to excommunicate unorthodox prophets of green ecofeminists  
actively hoping to restore panentheistic mind/body peace

Often with RightWing systemic trauma-informed
artistic and syncretic 
ego-empowering creolization
transubstantiating 
OpenWealth and WholeHealth revolutionary 

EarthJustice enlightened/empowering
PolyTheistic/PolyCulturing peace therapy
Passion-Liberating/Pleasure-Conserving
Win/Win Strategic Design 
bicamerally intelligent
sacred EarthTribe 
patriotic/matriotic
YangStrong/Yintegral
re-ligioning panentheistic alliances.

Doug Vinson Date: 2/26/2017 10:03:00 PM Hey Gerald. : ) Is there a way to culturally/socially implement this? I fear not, at least not until either it's too late or much closer to the deadline. Login to Reply Gerald Dillenbeck Date: 2/27/2017 9:59:00 AM Buckminster Fuller observed that deadlines appear much clearer when healthier lifelines are cooperatively designed--or something like that. Essentially, permaculture design already does this, although it has not been applied to the larger geopolitical scale as much as it could be, and needs to be.
