to territorial control issues
is not merely that violence breeds further strategic development
of violence,
although this is no small,
nor amoral, 
concern.

This primal problem of militarism by historic default
is that it is an intrinsically...

In Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged"
she paints a nationalistically wealthy saint
where also lives a monochromatically utilitarian narcissist,

"The Broken Valkyrie"



when 
the artificial 
sun 
replaced 
true Light,

complacency 
skewered...

Let's dwell a tiny bit  on that  skill  most hanker after,

An evanescent bouquet of skewed briars,

Aspiring for WinWin cooperative outcomes
is a prerequisite of non-verbal
non-competitive communication behaviors,
as non-violent communication climates
and humane cultured environments

to verbally cooperative hope
committed to resilient good-faith communication.
