Cooperative Political Powers

Power to condemn others, and oneself,

is weaker than power to help others, as oneself.

 

Power to destroy others, and oneself,

is lesser than power to regenerate others, and oneself,

interdependently.

 

Powers of fear and anger management,

with terrifying consequences and pathological climate outcomes,

are absorbed by more resonant powers of active love

incarnating integrity.

 

Power to compete and win exclusive victories

is anemic when contrasted with polypathic powers to cooperate

economically,

as politically,

as ecologically smarter,

as psychologically healthier,

as empathically balancing trust with anti-ecological mistrust,

as socially astute,

as culturally polypathic,

as peacefully,

as justly,

as gracefully,

as karmically,

as cosmically,

as zero-zentrically organically incarnated.

 

Regenerative powers begin within still small,

in-between,

enthymematic communication’s co-empathic voices

of bicamerally embryonic (0) sum appositional-cooperative balance.

 

A fundamental ecological problem for fascism,

and totalitarian governance strategies

supporting egocentric monoculturalism,

whether of oneself,

or one’s anthro-supremacist enculturing nation within an interdependent international planetary DNA/RNA Solidarity network,

or to build another Global Empire instead of regenerative self-governing solidarity within the entire world,

or any other portion of EarthTribe in between these ways we choose to slice

our primary home-identity pie,

our enduring ecopolitical issue is fascism’s single-minded fascination with strength of power

solely through internally united force,

as if one could optimize YangLandscapes without equivalent interdependent YinClimate-healthflow.

Both internal psychological

and external ecopolitical climates

of fascist fear/anger mongering,

managing through condemnation,

motivated by climates of fear,

collective nationalistic paranoia,

are blind to these far greater polypathic powers of multiculturally inclusive flow.

 

Our optimally facile, yin-flexible, ebbing and flowing, anti-Yang fascist, strength

emerges from our internally embryonic Yang/Yin co-empathic bilateral trust,

our basic mutual regard,

our intent toward regenerative health for all

by avoiding lesser WinLose suboptimizing compromises,

by constantly embracing full-flowing polypathic powers

of integrative inclusion, Ego/EcoLogical MultiCulturing WinWin MindBodies,

BiCamerally DNA-fractal (0)-sum polypathically sensory-neural programmed

regenerative evolution of human-time’s climate

and internal/external landscapes of  political health

as ecological wealth

for long-term future generations,

as for today,

each hour,

each moment,

each life,

each (0)-zen nanosecond of  bicameral ego/ecoconscious enthymematic rememory.

 

Political leaders whose primary appeal is their experience with anger and fear management,

corporate surgery,

and/or pharmaceutical escapism culturally covering WinWin opportunities for ecotherapy,

and WinLose economic strategic assumptions about the diverse strengths and weaknesses of truly humane evolution,

are elected by populations invested in settling for public policies and procedures intended to reduce pathological fears

through cultural denial of distinctions between healthy  cooperative empathic-trust exchanges

and further pathological climate change,

masking as EcoPolitical Business as Fascist-Survivalist WinLose Usual.

 

Thereby missing opportunities to more heroically and victoriously,

and, oh yes, regeneratively

sing and dance and proclaim and march toward Earth’s healthier external climates,

and internal landscapes

of truly ecologically balanced ecopolitical wealth optimizing futures

for all us ego/ecoconscious bicameral-balancing polypaths,

as for our EarthTribe Elders,

as toward our postmillennial ReGenerators of Earth’s ReCreation,

and not so much fascist-survivalist xenophobic marching

in anger and fear management politically bicamerally imbalanced circles and squares.

 

Certainly Earth’s evolutionary intelligence must be smarter

than a mere Trump Card,

favoring further WinLose pathologies,

when WinWin Permacultural Cooperative EcoPolitics

is waiting to become reborn

reweaving regenerativity’s multicultural potential

as our more integrated ego/ecoconscious polypathic trusting selves.

Positive Political Psychology

I question my own interplay of psychology and political science.

Does this too facilely root analogy within ecology of climate health v pathology?

 

Intersections of sociology and psychology are at least academically commonplace.

I have a friend with a doctorate in something called social-psychology.

And, conjoining sociology with political power and its appositional marginalization reviews long too-familiar, uncomfortable, political and social pathology territory.

 

Most of us have experience of both elite and non-elite ecopolitical childhood memories;

elite as compared to younger children, on one hand, and non-elite compared to adults, on the other, more politically advantaged, side of our deep learning power-psychology spectrum.

 

From the more toxic disempowerment of non-elite embryonic experience, longing for the power-advantages of full-maturation, we can all empathize with life on the margins of a power-culture.

Living within these boundary-margins brings higher risks of political disinvestment, from others and from within;

including financial and sensory-nutritional disadvantages,

higher risks of  co-arising disempowerment,

of active mistrust

internally rooted in chronic paranoia about the ultimate prospect of dying, and egocentric death.

 

However, the direct attribution of political power to nutritional powers of healthy fertility,

now increasingly known as positive evolutionary psychology,

or even positive-deviant revolutionary psychology,

is seldom explored as Positive Interior Political Psychology meets Positive/Negative Exterior Political Psychology,

where Positive is populated by a culture’s politically and economically empowered elite

while Negative climate-trending populations become increasingly at risk.

Non-elite status darkens and fades into vaporous margins of oblivion

as our ecopolitical cognitive-affective dissonance perdures,

cancerously producing paranoia co-arising within as non-competitive and value-less without.

 

When I awaken in the morning, sometimes I feel vaguely paranoid,

mistrusting of this day’s potential for politically healthy relationships and  more economic nutrition than economically toxic dissipating outcomes.

At the end of this day will I feel more like I have been struggling against environments inhabited by viral scorpions,

or struggling with how to contain and sustain my non-paranoid sense of healthy ecological-ecopolitically cooperative-dominant elitism that feels and smells and tastes of co-empathic trust?

 

This cooperative v competitive, helpful v condemning, twist in resonantly positive, non-dissonant, psychology is about positive politically mutual-empowering elitism.

Positive political elite powers are always and everywhere in regeneratively evolving nature,

as contrasted to degeneratively devolving political natures and economic-nutritional/dissonant feelings, empathies fixated on antipathies.

More paranoid WinLose models of psychological, and ecological, and democratically integrative evolution, induce a competitive LeftBrain dominant frame of paranoia about death and suffering and loss and egocentric attachments,

including political powering-over norms and strategies to defend egocentric powers against time’s inevitable insufficiency to conclude on the winning side of life’s equation,

rather than RightBrain power-with WinWin nurturing norms of Earth’s optimally regenerative nature.

 

Earth evinces a history of anthro-enculturation through revolving perennial time

with secondary three-dimensional spatial attributions of language and geometrics

accessible to both our LeftBrain Yang political-psychology power-over egocentrism

and to RightBrain’s Yin economic-nutritional power flow-with co-arising DNA/RNA harmonic extending-selves.

 

Do I wake up to a political enculturation day seeking advantages over others

or co-investment abundance with others?

Psychological and political elites do our best to choose the democratically healthier abundance for multiculturally polypathic all

by letting go of paranoid baggage of WinLose ecopolitical advantage.

 

Both the psychological and political problems of LeftBrain competitive dominance trace back to two source-roots.

In science, regenerative WinWin evolutionary trends favoring cooperative organic norms have been presumed less powerful than WinLose survivalist norms under high-stressed environmental imbalance conditions.

What is ecologically normative cooperation has been psychologically and economically and politically usurped by a model of evolution that assumes ecological health is rooted in the dominance of power-over competitions.

Were this the actual historical case, then we have no way of explaining how natural ecosystems could evolve into self-regenerative biosystems of memory and increasing communication relational integrity;

organic systems of intelligent interdependent-sustainability.

 

The other root source goes back to the origins of religions as co-empathic trust in sacred powers. Human nature has revealed divine powers as both helpful, benign, and as condemning, vengeful, jealous.

The gods and goddesses of love fuel further fertile cooperative empathic trust in Earth’s regenerative future.

The demons and unkind gods and unfertile goddesses of condemnation, too often re-enacted by tough-love parents, and monoculturally xenophobic politicians, and WinLose economists and financial investment/disinvestment assumptions, provoke further cognitive-affective dissonance about our politically non-elite ego identities within,

and further terrorist supremacy theologies rather than regeneratively cooperative elite teleologies;

meanings and purposes for humane healthy relationships and transactions,

whether psychologically within

or politically without.

 

As many have said, but few have synergetically structured, as did Bucky Fuller,

it is easier to become psychologically healthy when we live in an ecopolitically regenerative culture,

but it is also easier to perceive a cooperatively regenerative ecopolitics of co-arising trust

when one starts each day of childhood through adult life

with positive evolutionary psychological assumptions that we are each here significantly to help each other by most resonantly and fully communicating who we are meant to become with full integrity of a helpful-healthy functional family,

within an extended family doing our Golden Rule optimizing best to achieve regenerative ecological balance

in both our interior psychological and exterior political EarthTribe landscapes and climates.

Earth’s Greatest Lovers

The greatest lovers on Earth
never have sufficient time
to invest in competitions
to count how much love returned.

The greatest lovers
mentor Earth as CoMessiah,
regeneration’s soul Bodhisattva purpose.

Great lovers
do not quiver at death’s door,
where ego identity gives way
to WinWin more multiculturing integrity through time’s togathering,
reweaving healthy acclimated memories,
timeless revolutions of individuation
within SunGod’s nondual dipolar co-arising enlightenment
toward regeneratively nutritional outcomes.

Our greatest lovers,
Father SunGod co-arising nurturing Goddess Earth,
golden ruling and aging
wisdom literature’s most regenerative recreation stories,
absent suffering or loss
of love’s co-empathically timeless trust
toward future contenting revolutions.

Seeking 2020 ReVision

My son, nearly twenty,

living at home while attending community college,

without prospects of healthier, more robust, alternatives,

believes it is now past time

for pollsters to cast aside their neutral professional agendas

and play a more positive role

in educating this co-invested international polity.

 

So, ask not just Who are you voting for?

but first, try

Of the nominees for President and Vice President,

and Governor and Senator,

and so on,

of these United States,

in which your grandchildren’s children

will see the day when one out of every four people

now living in coastal regions

will evacuate their homes and places of employment

before they return to the sea,

not just because we did not care enough

to slow down our oil burn rate

but also because we planted herds of cows

without reforesting today’s climate pathologies;

given all of the above

which Nominees for these public ecopolitical offices

do you believe will be most helpful

for these next 7-generations of EarthTribe?

 

Which nominees will you vote for

because they are in your grandchildren’s best long-term economic

and politically ecological,

and just plain healthy and safety and security and happiness interests?

 

Which Nominee do you believe is the greatest risk

for continuing current climate and Earth-landscape monocultural pathology trends

toward further un-polypathic mistrust,

collective paranoia exhibiting rabidly nihilistic

and competitively terrifying anti-ecological

Business As Usual?

 

Which nominees for Public Health Defense and Security Office

do you believe would also be strong candidates

for mentoring and facilitating regeneratively healthy outcomes

as CEO for Global Public Health Optimization,

Secretary for All EarthLives and Deaths Matter Education,

Chief Guru for Environmental Health Defense

and Global Nutritional Security,

Secretary of EarthTribe Habitat

and ReGenerative EcoPolitical as EcoLogical Development?

 

Thank you so much for your healthy and mindful responses now,

and in your GoGreen! voting booth.

 

So, to all who both did and did not vote

in the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election,

would you mind responding to my son’s questions?

about your active hopes for Presidents

and Vice Presidents,

and their likely Secretary of EarthRights State,

so we might all revisit

our evolutionary Golden Rule Constitutional Convention,

review how we have been treated

with healthy kindness and pathological unkindness,

by Earth’s ecoconscious regenerative ecology,

to date 2020

seeing with full polypathic bicamerally balanced revision

of LeftBrain dominant ecopolitical premillennial history

reifying politically cooperative nutritional health from ecologically evolving wealth

of regenerative nurturing co-empathic trust

of/for EarthTribe’s full Left/Right

Yang/Yin

WinWin wu wei ecopolitical

cooperatively co-empathic ego/eco 2020 consciousness.

Preparing for the GRE

It was my plan to set aside this past week

to prepare for the Quantitative Graduate Record Exam.

 

A week ago this seemed like a big number

for ample review,

time set aside from more typical U.S. autumn events,

like electing a white male economic supremacist for President,

after having taken a 12 year break

from all those irrational remainders.

 

I have always thought math should be revolutionary,

climatic,

resonantly resolving like rainbow harmonies of scale,

profoundly correlational with geometric truths

as algebraic beauty,

and I suppose it may be all those good things

yet this week math feels suspiciously snarky and sinister,

replete with far more ways to go wrong

than right.

 

So today I was thinking maybe I shouldn’t bother

with these mysterious Quantities of testing.

Although I did well forty years ago

and didn’t know any more or less

about mathematical machinations then

than now.

 

Or so I thought

until I actually opened up the GRE review section.

When did math become so monochromatically dull,

devoid of plot

and anything resembling metaphysical charisma?

 

Soon I found the verbal questions

much more edifying.

 

Well, OK, not really that,

but more entertaining than watching formulas dry

and principles march in relentless mind-numbing LeftBrain dominant lock-step.

It took years of ecotherapy to overcome

white male LeftBrain dominance

and now, so late in life,

discovering I don’t even miss it

any more or less than zero-sum WinLose economics.

 

But, I think I will visit the Quantitative section

day after tomorrow

Say goodbye to old friends

I’ve never had occasion to use

or abuse

due to relentless negative correlational neglect.

 

It might be fun

to see if I guess as well as I used to

when I was still young enough

to believe metric right or wrong could possibly matter.

 

Now I know it’s just not true

except for statistical analysis,

which is at least as much about

the politics of subjective Electoral College economics,

as objective rules of fair and accurately cooperative procedures,

verified as reified by all.

Global Earth Rights Party

Perhaps we might all agree

that life’s purpose appears to grow regenerativity,

recreative memories as positive

rising above, and yet within,

and both before and after,

less creative mistrusts of ambivalently evaporating health v pathology outcomes.

 

And, if self and other regenerative health

is the DNA and RNA stuff of history positive living

and the multiculturally orthodox reason for today

and actively hopeful reasons for and of tomorrow,

and all time’s future regenerations of species,

biosystemic political landscapes

with ecosystemically ecological climates,

then self and other governance began before enlightened conventions,

and declarations of freedom to regenerate powers with

through freedom from overly competitive ecopolitically powering-over constraints,

and subclimate constitutions of organic nationalistic incorporation,

but always reiterating WinWin reverse hierarchical nesting tree understory networks

of forests building biosystemic songs and dances

for and of Earth Rights.

 

Earth Rights to healthy positive

and not so much pathology negative

absence of regenerative health potential.

Earth Rights are also

self and other regenerative dipolar balance rights

and wrongs of LeftBrain dominant deductive-reductive history,

overpowering RightBrain co-empathic tree cooperatives

nurturing WinWin deep learning nutritional ecology,

compositions constituting undersung Earth Rights Proclamations,

ReFormations,

ReGenesis.

 

And so it seems we are already,

as this global anthrospecies,

some combination of anonymous and self-declaring Earth Rights Advocates,

remembering our international ecopolitical cooperative-regenerative party.

Together, each and every seasonal development year for growing health,

we erect another economic-politically empowered-disempowered ring

around our historic regenerative constitution story,

creation narratives of chaos, and complexity,

and regenerative hope to try Golden Era LeftRight Balance again.

 

Perhaps Climate Rights Advocates

as also Human Rights and Wrongs Advocates

might facilitate and co-mentor this globally cooperative ecoconsciousness,

by cooperatively schooling and gifting forward our collective investments

to globally incorporate our Earth Rights EcoPolitical Party.

From this regenerative discernment

we could realign WinWin ecology’s health

with ecopolitically cooperative wealth

and invite all the other, lesser, nationalist political parties

to listen and learn within this organic cooperative fertility

about healthier platforms for helpfully caring for ourselves,

setting aside older WinLose condemning theological models,

to care for our extending family Others,

as Earth’s Golden Rule of ReGenerativity,

ecopolitical cooperativity

of LeftRight balancing trees,

well composted networks of root systemic ecopoliticians.

 

Perhaps an on-line Earth Rights and Wrongs WinWin Game

would help national and provincially competing ecopolitical professional followers

of degenerating paranoia

learn together to lead

through cooperative co-mentoring regenerative facilitation

of Earth Tribal Right and Left TaoBalanced ecosystemic regenerativity.

 

Perhaps our colleges and kindergartens

could become ReGenerative Earth Rights Gaming Party sites

for playing and deep learning

ecopolitical as ecologically balancing recreativity

of multicultural health,

without further conserving yet more self-condemning

monoculturing egocentric pathology.

 

That is,

if we do agree

that life appears to be for regenerativity

as death disappears into dissonant degenerativity.

The Good Society

Is there a doctor in the house?

A cryptic message from the uniting nations, looking for yet another credentialed ecotherapist to surgically remove all our economic and political issues. Those remaining after overdosing on pharmaceuticals as media marketed through normal incorporated competitions for egocentric profit channels and parties and outlets fed by oil-fired over-heating ballistic powers.

Unfortunately, this local ecotherapeutic facilitator and mentor guild is out of rabid pathologists. They are all currently mad with medicines of and for climate illnesses, building sand bag towers across drowning coastal cities the oceans are reclaiming as their own, in their perennial rage against the continents of usurpation. Predators, with power-over monocultural intent, this tidal tug of war between productive lands and consuming seas.

But doctors are best for reacting to already raging and suffered madness, badness, while our ecotherapeutic nurses are nurturing specialists, responsible for co-mentoring regenerative public health, supporting cooperative natural healing laws and organic orders, composting richer climates within dysfunctional families as post-graduate clinical trials before they take on facilitating public-sector governing, multicultural garden uncovering, helpful-healthy community beloving our uniting nations’ polypathically extending families.

For proactively regenerating healthy societies this ecotherapeutic guild recommends our co-empathic cooperative trust mentors, nurturing Good Holistic Sciences and Arts of healing medicines. Where surgeons and psychotropic dispensing political doctors react against predative paranoid economic nightmares, our health-nurturing nurses bring deep-resonantly fired experience returning pathological ecopolitical dark night scares into rememories of multicultural Paradise Dreams singing and dancing through healthy EarthTribe childhoods.

Why seek yet another burnt-out surgical WinLose pathologist when we have so many healthy WinWin eco-nutritional mentors? Trees creating good from bad atmospheres and pollinators regenerating depleted ecopolitical soils and barren, former ecologically healthy, souls.

Autumn’s Failing Consciousness

New England’s post election trees
shed a few teary waving leaves.
Morning sky tries to shine resilience
yet lingers in ominous grey overcast
of silent waiting through despair.

In Michigan and Wisconsin and Pennsylvania
tens of thousands of mothers
who cherish their daughters
are beating themselves up about yesterday;
longing for a do-over
to avoid confidence in false predictions
of safely voting their libertarian ecoconsciousness,
or too quietly staying home
to rake falling fertile leaves.

Failing leaves feel their personal mortality,
too old, over-extended, to survive another bitter winter
of ex-patriation
while maternal nurturing root systems survive through hibernation,
deeply embedding in Earth’s nutritional compost
of yeasty faith,
waiting for another Advent ecopolitical Season.

Not a branch,
not even a twig stirs from frosty lethargy
wondering Why?
Why would we decide slavery must be illegal
because immoral
yet sexual and capital and incorporated predation
remains legally and morally ambiguous,
as if wealth of male supremacist nobility
were God’s full harvest of regenerative moral gifts,
excusing by betraying grace
this fortunate entitlement
of LeftBrain enduring cockiness
to welcome this winter’s misery,
Earth’s hiatus from integrally nurturing ecology.

Hiding even the sun’s radiant morning glory
from disunited piles of leaving ballots
already preparing to fertilize richer soils
in four more autumnal climate years.

Abundant Life

Economies are positive when consuming and producing balanced nutrition,
and are depressed when consuming and producing too much
by way of dissonant toxic loss and suffering,
un-ecological hubris,
climate pathologies suboptimizing WinWin potentialities
for multiculturally healthy outcomes.

Economic nutritional abundance
sometimes labeled as wealth,
is an artifact,
neither exclusive, much less supremely, significant
in and of its own dance,
within politically empowering multicultural health,
internal polypathic cooperative EgoLeft/EcoRight solidarity
externalizing Earth’s tribally landscaped
nutritional extended family enculturation wealth.

Wealthy cooperative economies
consume polypathic ecological health
to politically produce Earth-trusting nutrition,
deep learning landscapes
regenerating co-empathic climates
of bicameral DNA/RNA dialects
reweaving syncretic TaoTime balance.

Metaphysical Dipolarities

Genes are to memes
as nutrition is to communication
as memory is to experience
as history is to enculturation
as story is to resonance
as landscape is to climate
as form is to function
as relationship is to transaction
as political power is to economic flow
as yang is to yin
as regenerative is to remembering
as genes are to memes…
