summary - Annick de Witt takes the reader on a journey of discovery of that looks at the nuances of the complex set of entangled crisis we face today, by referring to the idea of worldviews - She shows how the quagmires now emerging are the result of interplay between three major worldviews, traditional, modern and post-modern and how each represents a partial truth that denies the partial truths held by the others - The article takes the example of Trumpism and the MAGA movement to illustrate, but the same analysis could be extended to the many different cultural worldviews found in different peoples around the globe - In particular, with Trump's recent decision to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities, tensions between the traditional Islamic culture and the West's traditional, modern and post-modern segments of society are again on the rise - The insightful analysis culminates in the proposal for an integral worldview that includes all three but transcends each one - It may be useful to introduce Annick to Greg Henrique's Unified Theory of Knowledge (UToK), - https://www.unifiedtheoryofknowledge.org/ - Gregg works with John Vervaeke that Annick has cited - Regarding Bayo Akomolafe's short LinkedIn note on the word "worldview", I respect both Annick's detailed analysis as well as Bayo's interpretation and look forward to a comparative analylsis of these two perspectives around the word "worldview" - I am also in the middle of annotating Lisa E. Maroski's book, Embracing Paradox, Evolving Language, which is salient here as well

Indyweb dev - new Plexmark - analog affirmation slider - while reading the passage I was annotating, I realised that I was in agreement with a lot of what the author was articulating. However, I have no way to indicate this match because it would be too much - this gave rise to a new Plexmark: <br /> - Have an analog control slider for each sentence that indicates - agreement on one side and - disagreement on the other side as well as a - 'don't know' button. - This gives a running indication of resonance with your own salience landscape - This can then be used in conjunction with the Indranet - If there is an indication of strong agreement, then the reader may have strong motivation to investigate that author's mindplex, - especially if there is a strong salience mismatch between the author and the reader, indicating a possible learning event

Retrospective reflections - (See below) adjacency - sacred - relationship with - free - open source - what is your relationship with the sacred? - this is the same as asking - how do you feel in your time of solitude and aloneness? - do you feel deep connection and a sense of not being lonely while you are alone? - to be alienated if not to feel disconnected with others - as it is to be disconnected with the ceaseless sacred that continuously surrounds you, from birth to death

• I propose that the post-modern worldview should be renamed
• why?
• it is a name that is dependent on the second major worldview, modernism
• while the first two worldviews have autonomous names, the third, postmodernism is not autonomous but depends on the second
• the word integral is a good candidate to replace it

• it means integration of both traditional and modern

• two central ideas of Deep Humanity praxis fit into these three worldview

  • progress
  • death awareness
• worldviews can be seen from a progress framed perspective
• progress is a movement from traditional to modern
  • conservatism focuses on the traditional pole while
  • liberalism focuses on the modern pole
  • postmodernism is a universal, cultural retroactive reflection on the relationship between both

• death awareness is a major focus on traditional knowledge systems but

  • postmodernism can definitely benefit from integrating it to provide
    • an integral, inclusive approach that deals effectively with
      • the meaning crisis faced by a secular, modern perspective that has
        • rejected traditional religions without replacing it with anything substantive

• June 27, 2025 - modernism - objective reality - validation - example - personal experience - beeping electricity meter

  • my wife woke me up in the morning and said that the electricity meter is beeping again.
  • I couldn't hear it because my heating isn't as good as hers
  • I trust her when she says this
  • I walked out of the bedroom too go downstairs and turn it off and a soon as I got around the corner in the bedroom, I can hear the beeping sound
  • The easiest explanation for these two different experiences is that the is an existent objective reality which each of us experienced differently ( Occam's Razor)
    • the electricity meter was indeed beeping
  • The post modern. explanation would likely revolve around quantum mechanics but if far from simple or obvious

summary - This article provides an insightful historical framework that helps us to understand the next potential major human value and cultural paradigm shift - It draws upon academic work of metamodern and metameme theory to analyze the last few hundred thousand years of human history into a number of metameme epochs - It employs the concept of hard and soft metamemes to show the alternating historical epochs - Understanding these historical alterations helps us to foresee the transition human civilization is currently moving through - While "economics" can generally be considered to be the value generation "hard" metameme system and spirituality and cultural worldviews are the "soft" metameme, the article explores whether we are in the midst of the next soft metameme transition - It opines that we are just at the beginning of it and that the major shift is yet to come

Ein neuer Bericht der europäischen Kommission sagt aus, dass die EU dreimal so schnell dekarbonisieren muss wie bisher, um das Ziel zu erreichen, die Emissionen bis 2030 um 55% zu reduzieren. Den Zahlen der European Environment Agency zufolge reicht der gegenwärtige Kurs nur für eine Reduzierung um 43%. Ein Haupthindernis sind die enorm hohen fossilen Subventionen. Die Selbstverpflichtungen von EU-Staaten vor der COP28 treffen z.T. verspätet ein, und die vorliegenden sind einem Bericht des Climate Action Network zufolge sehr unzureichend. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/oct/24/eu-must-cut-emissions-three-times-more-quickly-report-says

We can definitely have a safety mechanism that can scale to any level of intelligence,’ - I don’t think we should be developing those general superintelligences. - We can get most of the benefits we want from narrow AI, - systems designed for specific tasks: - develop a drug, - drive a car. - They don’t have to be smarter than the smartest of us combined.

quote - silos - web 3 and crypto silo - localization silo - desiloing can bring about significant empowerment to people everywhere - (see quote below) - To put it bluntly, Web3 and the crypto economy is still largely an ‘exit’ play for financial and coding elites, - practicing the arbitrage of nation-states, - but without much connections to local communities and resilient production; - Similarly, local communities engaged in relocalized and regenerative production - are not in sync with the mutual coordination capacities developed in the crypto/web3 context.

summary - A good article that offers an explanation of how language has potentially led the public to rely on top down actors to provide solutions to the climate crisis - Joe Brewer draws on his background as a frame analyst to analyse the role language and cognitive linguistics has played in framing the discourse on the climate crisis - He claims that this has led the public to look to elite top down actors to provide the solutions - This had led to a disempowerment of the public in actively participating in contributing too solutions - Indeed it could be why we have a sleeping giant - Reframing the story could have the opposite effect of inspiring people's to wake up and take action to regenerate nature within and surrounding the communities where people live.
