Extreme Unction

Today I have been comparing and contrasting Bernie Sander’s and Donald Trump’s political and economic motives
for seeking their respective Party nominations.

Senator Sanders and Chief Corporate Executive Officer Trump
began with intent to become The Nominee,
we might presume.
But is that it?
What would a win mean exactly
for our shared ecopolitical future?

Sanders seems more transparent
in response to these questions,
while Trump appears more articulate
about what he prefers to not lose.

Sanders,
going back to his decision to launch his Presidential aspirations,
hoped to influence his Democratic Party’s national political-economic nutritional depth
for stronger multicultural empathy-trust
and more effective investment
in global ecological health.

Did Trump possibly hope to influence the National Republican Party’s platform,
economic agenda,
in a surgically opposite insurrection?
To raise our mutual economic immunity walls
toward further monocultural,
monopolistic,
monochromatic outcomes?
To end democratic humane equivocation
between competitive economics as usual
defeating more cooperative ecological investment
of public dollars and imagination
to improve multicultural regeneratively flowing circulation
of Earth’s goods and beauties?

Sander’s exegesis of evolution
as “Might makes right.”
translates to
We mightily consider this
and we mightily consider that
to derive together more therapeutic balance.

Trump’s “Might makes right.”
is of the Either-Or Orthodox Tradition,
not Sander’s newer ecopolitical might
means maybe some of all of the above,
a more Dialectical Discernment Tradition
of strength through organic fluidity,
as contrasted to mechanical stasis.

From today’s perspective,
it appears the Senator,
while not having won nomination,
does point out specific ecopolitical Wins
within the National Democratic Party’s agenda,
which were significant to his original intent
for seeking nomination.

But, what about CEO Trump’s wins to date?
He won the nomination of the Republican Party
but has he thereby enjoyed greater,
or suffered lesser,
influence on his Party’s marketable platform?
Has he increased or decreased Republican political with economic coherence
toward a healthier-happier future
for richly diverse residents,
both those who can vote,
and those who have not yet even been born?
All those presumably future potentiating Republicans.
What legacy would Trump leave for the long-term health
of his favorite Republic’s future?

Did Trump, or Sanders,
enter the race for delegate votes
hoping to win the hearts and minds of our multicultural society
to a new post-millennial age of political and economic cooperation
inviting a more peaceful co-empathic climate of mutual trust
and co-investment in our polyculturing, evolving health
deepening,
resonating more powerfully flexible resolutions
to support these uniting states of mind and body
unto perpetuity?

Or was Trump or Sanders more clear about what he could not
and would not tolerate with humility–to lose
his ambitions for capital-centric egopolitical competition
to Win over Losers
not plutocratic enough to assuredly purchase his Party
not even positive enough to assure Republicans or Democrats
that God will smile again on those who have accumulated more
by giving back less co-investment.

In God We Trust
to hoard our mess
and health our co-invest.

Trumping U.S. Political Health

Not that I’m such a great fan,
but I was just now taken by surprise
to read the Republican Nominee for U.S. CEO
has somehow raised questions about his mental health.

Really!?

I live in the U.S.
I have questioned the mental health of any candidate
for elected office
hoping to live with mental health in Washington, D.C.
This question has been on my mind
for about as long as I could spell Washenton and Columbian.

This question has evolved more recently.
Now I ask if this candidate presents
more bipolar passive-aggressive
or just full-out psychotic-rabid?

Usually we get at least one of each
here in the U.S.,
which could be why we continue with more of an angry red plutocracy of wealth
than a cool green democracy
of, by, and for, cooperative residents of mental health.

Revolutions in Plutocracy

Those who get,
get more.
Those who want,
want more.

Evolution is not survival of the fittest species,
but thrival of the greatest fit with least endosymbiotic change required
within,
whether we speak of polycultural enrichment
or meta-paradigmatic revolutions in understanding multicultural enrichment.

Evolution is BusinessAsUsual (BAU) cooperative-dominant nutritional networking
between what were more autonomous,
monocultural,
mutual-immune suboptimally co-functioning coincidental subsystems.

Revolution is the emergence of a new (0)-sum co-empathic prime relationship
on the dual edges of diastatically pervasive abundance
throughout the implicated (coded, genetic, pre-embryonic) polypaths of Earth,
enculturing ever deeper, denser, more healthy, fertile, lush, lavish, gorgeous bilateral (0)-interest
temporally balanced
full-octave
thermodynamic resonance.

Great Transitional Revolutions
within normal BAU evolution,
favor, confluate, radiate, elate, co-arise
survival of the fittest species and individuals,
but not the fittest warriors, necessarily.

Past anthrocentric revolutions
like Taoism,
Hinduism,
Buddhism,
Judaism,
Christianity,
Islam,
nature-mystics one and all, at least embryonically,
science,
research,
theology,
teleology,
philosophy,
psychology,
metaphysics,
group theory,
game theory,
regenerative systems theory,
evolutionary theorems of great transitional revolutions,
recyclers,
repurposers,
reincarnators,
restorers,
nurturers,
farmers,
hunters and gatherers
reproduce nature-mystic analogical polypaths one and all.

These past revolutionary theorems and practices,
intents with organically benign purposes,
come to us from past anthrocentric revolutions
that have more often favored the fittest lovers,
most resonantly healthy cooperators,
peace and merciful justice family and extended family makers,
polypathic multicultural-loving thrivers.

PolyPathic Revolutions
seem to draw toward basic empathic-trust ecoconsciousness
of political relationships and economic transactions
as living on an edgy evolving spectrum
from ecologically healthy
to Earth-Other-Self pathological,
including internal Left with Right hemispheric reiterative bicameral discernment conversations.

YinRight has no language
but flows through co-empathic trust
or floods with anger and fear and hateful mutual immunity,
absence of pleasure through relationship.
Right flows positive as co-empathic trusting love of healthy ways
while Left functions optimally
with Left/Right BiCameral (0)-Soul Balance,
deductive with inductive
both-and notnot mutually immune coempathic,
need not devolve to reductive suboptimization,
and further trends of cognitively irrational dissonance.

Left-Deductive PowerWith-Yang: ConVex Exterior Landscape
Right-Inductive CoEmpathic (0)-Binomial YinYin: ConCave Interior Bilaterally Revolving-Resolving Landscape.

Why does this Plutocratic Revolution of Healthiest Riches
matter to anthro-polypaths of Left-Right Balance?

A theoretical application,
rooted in knowing that at least one billionaire
(Ted Turner)
has donated at least a billion dollars
to UN critical global services,
such as eliminating land mines,
feeding children,
preventing disease
(what about planting trees and feeding Earth’s topsoil?).

These have actually improved the quality of life on anthrocentric Earth.

What if all of us with retirement accounts,
what if all insurance and wealth-tax investments
were paid-forward as (0) interest loans,
one to five year deferred,
with flexible terms for repayment,
to convert these same critical global services,
now owned by political-economic elite service providers
to therapeutic cooperative ownership,
owned by their non-elite consumers and direct service providers,
who learn to pass along therapies and skill-sets received
to others in need of the same?

What if Donald Trump
suddenly remembered it is in our children’s children’s long-term healthy interest,
to convert all he owns to co-ownership of those who want to work
with cooperative ownership and self-governance.
Sharing wealth brings richer health.
Hoarding wealth only produces envious employees,
when we could secure cooperative healthy relationships of mutual integrity.
What kind of degenerate mentorship would this look like
as a public-sector leader of sustainable health and prosperous safety policies?

PolyPathic Plutocrats
might measure their wealth-networking skills
with the comparative happiness they feel
in their stomachs,
bicameral hearts and lungs and synergetic mindbody functions.
Eventually even billionaires figure out
that all the good food and booze in the world,
no matter how long and well we live,
goes in the same piehole,
all the sounds and sights come through remarkably similar minds as nondual bodies,
and all the poop and pee and vomit continue to emerge from exactly the same places as when we were penniless children.

Once you have enough,
more can only therapeutically come your way to reinvest in others,
to help you extend your consciousness of family responsibilities
with health and caring authority.

Those who want and get more for every mind and body,
get and want no more than sufficient for ego’s healthy body
loving mind.

Trump’s Plutocratic Party

Plutocracy–politics for, of, by, and with financial riches.

What does Donald Trump tell us
about what he expects for us and from us
in return for his personal investment
in national political/economic leadership?

In the past record
he seems to have expected to reduce the expenses of labor,
workers,
producers of goods and services,
to increase short-term financial benefits
to wealthier co-investors,
like himself.

If Mr. Trump has run on his past record
then why would workers,
laborers,
producers of goods and services,
much less prisoners and homeless and marginalized populations,
expect a change of game plan?

If he has asked us to anticipate a change of game plan,
then what does he offer by way of relevant experience
for any public office
intended to grow our long-term sustainable
healthy, happy, and reasonably good-humored, cooperative prosperity?

I suspect what lies behind this Trump Card’s motivation to win
is a significant private wager that he could buy this too
if he really wanted to.
But what he would do with such leadership
once won
would all be downhill loss
for Mr. Trump as for all his plutocratic friends,
their children,
and our children’s children.

Plutocracy could be democracy,
depending on whether we define wealth with healthy cooperative outcomes,
or do we continue with defining health as wealth-competitive outcomes,
and where we draw our ecological political-economic line
distinguishing between healthy wealth and co-arising greed
which breeds envy,
not further regenerative healthy wealth.

Political Beliefs as Economy of Feelings

Could what a political scientist would call
deeply held belief
also be what a psychologist could identify as a
feeling of affinity or aversion,
trust or distrust,
confluent familiarity or cognitive-affective dissonance?

“I deeply believe Tasteless Trump
is the logical conclusion
so richly deserved by the Republican Party.”

Is this position rooted in a belief system
or an empathic feeling of trust/distrust system
or are these dualistic ways
to speak of one nondual feeling-belief mindbody system?

If our political and economic choices
evolve out of our complex sensory networks
of health v pathology,
both ego-internal
and eco-external,
both endo- and ecto-symbiotically evolving,
then how do I know
that what you believe
is not what I experience
as a feeling of trust v. distrust, dissonance,
confluence,
basic aptic contentment,
or stressful stretching
to find co-empathic commensurability,
as something nondually in-between
your evolving belief systems
and my evolving feeling sensory-rooted systems?

For political party planning,
community organizers have a useful iconic principle:
Highest and best original investment system
will generate the most widely replicable positive community outcomes,
but only for those well-spoken,
empowered,
within the original highest and best co-investor system.

Or, something like that.

Permaculture Designers have a similar system design principle:
Greatest effect with least loss, least effort, least suffering, least dissonance.

Combining these may reproduce a new-old Golden poli-economic Rule
of ReGenerative Systems Development:
Optimize systemic belief/feeling integrity
by learning holistic loss of love management,
given current co-investor potential.

Given current poli-economic co-investor potential for
freedom toward health, as freedom from pathological anger,
freedom toward love, freedom from fear of fear itself,
freedom toward learning trusting truths of co-empathic beauty,
as freedom from dissonant terrors
of self and other hatred,
fundamentalist monocultural elitism,
sociopathic anthrocentric suprema-cynicism,
suicidally hypnotic addictive self-idolatry
of LeftBrain ego-predative dominance.

More holistic current feeling/belief learning potential
evolves love/synergetics through inclusive deep listening
and then intentional practice
of co-empathic eco-compassion.

Deep learning our belief-feeling continuum,
noticing what were oppositions now feel like heuristic appositions,
slowly, integrally,
inclusively discerning our shared vision
for optimizing potential regenerative co-empathic trust intent.

Given my current
belief/feeling
left/right
yang/yin
nature/nurture
scientific research/spiritual development
situation and story,
my blessings and apparent curses,
resonance and poli-economic flat-line echoing silent dissonance,
I am trying to do my part to regenerate healthy ecosystems
biosystems of life and dying decomposition,
with least loss and suffering,
poli-economic death,
resulting in highest and best nutritional effect
for my,
and our,
and Earth’s feeling-beliefs,
both political and economic,
ecologically evolving systems
for health regenerating safety
of future generations,
our EarthTribal PostMillennial CoInvestment,
our vulnerable babies facing climatic transitions.

Would both political and psychological scientists
recognize an embryonic DNA/RNA scripted baby
as a deeply rooted belief/feeling system,
hopefully evolving toward political and economic maturity?

Like Republic Party Investors
giving birth to Donald Trump as their Favorite RelentlesslyWhite,
nonIslamic Son,
to re-present their most nutritional offering
and sacrifice,
a sacramental icon of political and economic monocultural elitism,
not recognizing the superior polycultural power of co-empathic trust
has already slapped them in the face;
but just to wake us up to our own naked absence
of basic trust
in double binding principles
of political subsidiarity to
economics of integral-dialectical-nondual complementarity;
trust beliefs form as well-fed feelings flow.

Politics of Healthy EcoSystems

Wealthy thrivers of politically competitive strategies
become calcifying outcome patterns
building up around the bicameral heart
of our healthy ebb and flow financial system.

Investment of time and money,
nutrition flowing in established monoculturing directions
tends to stick there,
accumulating ever more fatty tissue,
monopolistic issues
of political-economic heart failure
ensues hardening of political life’s ecosystemic arteries.

More cooperative polycultural WinWin balance
sustains
where a monoculture with hardening arteries will fail
to optimally thrive,
while sucking in environmental resources
until healthy families and communities and species over-consume
and wilt and fail
faster than their nutritional systemic replacement rate.

What do starving and thirsty biosystems need from you
with you
of you
through you
to share with you
every nutritional grace we could cooperatively contain?

My answer does not end
with another monocultural Trump card,
or even anthro-centric
industrial
mechanical
ballistic
military competition.

Hearts over-flowing with violent power-investment intent
will only further harden current anthro-monopolistic death-trends
toward cardiac arrest.

Undocumented Workers

Dear Donald Trump,

Appreciate you sharing your view that “all undocumented workers must go.”

Wondering how you might respond to my view

that all fully documented parasites devouring co-worker-cooperative ownership opportunities

must have already left behind any semblance of an ecologically rational economic position,

platform,

agenda,

life,

fully invested in a toxic lack of eco-normative integrity?

Namaste,

Gerald Oliver
