I think the first step would be to understand WHY they are acting like fuckheads, then come up with a solution to the problem. Yes, by not rewarding the bad behavior is a solution but why are they acting like fuckheads? Perhaps the answers would further push the utopia along.
But then by your admission you're going against the overwhelmingly more reasonable choice.
i prune inconvenient branches.
If you buy into the Prisoner matrix, it is because 5 > 3. It really is that simple imo. cn
I pressurize from inconvenient prunes. cn
Sometimes you get 5, but you usually get 3. This is statistical.
There is no 4 option. Cooperators working with cooperators get 3 each time. Cooperators poleaxed by a defector get zip-a-rino.
Deciphering...
I agree. We not only can, but should try to improve and eliminate environmentally caused issues. I fear a very small segment of the population is predisposed to being fuckheads through defective genetic coding. The dregs who were dregs due to socio-economic external factors will be reduced and possibly entirely eliminated. It's the defective fuckheads that concern me.
Being a fuckhead is a function of gentics? Since when? I get neuro-psycho mutations of genes causing a biological issue but the way that issue is addressed is what makes one a fuckhead. It is a choice...right
I think you are correct that there are people that are outright fuckheads. I would even go as far to say that these fuckheads would be dangerous in a utopian society if they were able to sway people toward their way of thinking. Then you have a dangerous collective. Then war. Then back to square one.
This is kinda the point to my last post. I don't think bad behavior is genetic but environmental. It would still take time for the bad behavior to die off in a new society.
In general terms yes, it can be genetics. We identify sociopaths with 20/20 hindsight in early childhood.
They still think I am advocating revolution and forceful centralized communism and nothing can convince them otherwise.
You seem more fluid to me. I think once you start talking about anarchy people automatically think you want to pull the walls in on yourself. Rather than see anarchy as just a point of reference or a springboard it is taken as LAW. "You are an anarchist therefore you are an asshole". It's just a philosophy. You speak out against the existing tribe and the tribe sees this as a threat. IMO.
You have just as much power as they do to influence the collective subconscious. Your act of forgiveness can have an equal and opposite effect upon the douche-osphere that their act of dickishness has on you. It is a choice people make everyday. It is a world we create.
I'm the 100th monkey.
Right, but I'm talking about extreme cases. The murderers that have no remorse. Think of the BTK killer. These are people who exist in society and pose a very real danger. I agree with acts of forgiveness but there would have to be a transition period where the status quo is still burned in to people's minds and people aren't used to a new way of living.
Someone will have to set parameters to what is considered bad behavior too. That leads to another problem of me possibly having to live by somebody's standards of behavior or code of ethics other than my own. Not utopia.
We'll need somebody delegated to decide who is banished to crazy land. This gives one man power over another, which also leads to hierarchies, which is the antithesis of our utopia.
You're butthurt.
