Understand & appreciate caveats & concerns

Still, I see two of your comments are problematic and can’t be dismissed as you do

1. That, “civilization has evolved away from rule by physical force, toward cooperation and administration,” is not the case and has actually been exacerbated by verbal/rhetorical force. Suggest you might like to read my article, Civilization’s Anti-Human, Not Machines
2. That, “I don’t much care what ism anyone wishes to call it,” is, unfortunately consequential. Suggest you might like to read my article, The Evolution of Mind Games.

Again, we’re not in disagreement about ends, but the primary obstacle to that end, which dysfunctional medieval political systems.
