my favorite way to put this idea is a quote I once heard; The truth is a mirror Creator dropped and it shattered into a million pieces, each one of us picked up a piece and thought we saw the truth. I love this metaphor because not only does the reflection speak of our truth but the shape of our mirror speaks of the contrast that brings definition helping us see our true shape.

Everything changed 12900 years ago. The Younger Dryas extinction event. This event was so traumatic that some humans, those on the Eurasian steppes suffered extreme scarcity which inspired the emergence of three concepts previously unknown - value, hierarchy, and ownership, these are extremely abstract concepts that require scarcity and maintain scarcity. Shortly after the extinction event the Neolithic revolution occurred as a result of these concepts, ownership is particularly invasive because it overrides the natural understanding and respect for autonomy. Animals were no longer considered autonomous this is when they began catching and imprisoning cattle and forcing them to give birth, it’s called husbandry for a reason. This idea was then applied to women and the contract of ownership we call marriage was invented along with birthright. Patriarchy emerged out of these new ideas along with the beginnings of monotheism. If none of this happened then the invention of the phonetic alphabet never would have happened. Before the alphabet existed people used gods and myth as mnemonic devices to understand and remember everything anyone would ever need to thrive anywhere autonomously on this planet. The phonetic alphabet is the first technology that began the fall of humanity. Our atmosphere is in a state of thermal runaway because of these events that started around 11000 years ago. Books destroyed mnemonics. The book The Alphabet versus The Goddess By Leonard Shlain helped me understand why pre colonial Americas had no arms race, no borders, no concept of value, no ownership, no hierarchy, no patriarchy. Instead we invented corn, potatoes, peppers, squash, beans, strawberries, blueberries, and cultivated tree nuts, maple syrup, managed forests and game animal populations. The carrying capacity of the Americas was mind blowing. The difference comes down to three imaginary narcissistic concepts - value, ownership, hierarchy.

When I see the suppression of knowledge, barriers to education and the burning of books - I already know what’s coming. History repeating itself.
