culture wars are partially downstream of the media-tech nation dropping paratrooper brainworms inside the OODA loops of those with fragile self-sense and people-sense, and recruiting them as cannon-fodder mooks into profitable-but-destructive psychofauna titan battles https://t.co/PBwSG4mZh0

I wrote @introspectvv to help people with self-sense and @FANswitchboard to help with people-sense. My voltaic verses substack will be about culture-sense and media-sense. It’ll be more complex than that but the big picture is becoming clearer

“everything changed when the media tech innovated” is a recurring phenomenon btw. there are historical cycles you can study https://t.co/Y6TkI8KntY

My favorite essay of all time was written in 2011, and pretty much predicted the inevitability of today's culture wars (because it happened throughout history over and over again with the advent of each new piece of new media tech) https://t.co/iAmVULAp7Z https://t.co/m7qBdier6V

self-sense ~maps onto somatic resonance here (invasive psychofauna ≈ ideas driven mad by ppl with poor self-sense, people-sense, culture-sense, to attack & consume others like themselves. The tormented summoners usually have good media-sense, which is a curse w/o the others) https://t.co/CGPXw7YBnx

Until you nurture somatic resonance, you will be prey for invasive psychofauna

people with low-res models of themselves are relatively easy to manipulate and shepherd around for profit George Carlin was right https://t.co/bqJh9XKGgM

here is a more natural-language readable version of the deliberately bombastic (but completely sincere) tweet I wrote higher up in the thread about psychofauna titan battles https://t.co/96GOpvuxQQ

Here's my conclusion regarding what the modern world : it is a battle of collective egos that use humans as soldiers. Most aren't aware of this battle and spend most of their energy defending ideas and worldviews they never consciously agreed to.

@visakanv This happens to me when I read old journals. Always an interesting feeling.
