What is this Game B Initiation video?! - Psychotechnologies Live (9)
1:33 An initiation to game B
6:15 they are saying, "this is the story of humanity", The "era of Game B"
8:55 archetypes being presented
9:22 this is revisionist, we ate all the megafauna - we didn't act in harmony, we killed everything
11:15 some historical contexts for our past
12:33 carbon dating can only measure things that were alive in the last 100,000 years
15:12 Maori culture (my dates are a bit off, see wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C4%81ori_people )
17:00 how many times did one tribe wipe out another tribe across history? (countlessly)
18:48 we are only here because our ancestors killed the other people
19:57 I would like us to be fine with how gruesome our history is
20:25 by telling a soft, kind history, we keep the population docile
23:24 did animals and plants domesticate us? (rather than us domesticating them)
24:17 different cultures are shaped by the food (not food shaping the culture)
28:50 Agent arena relationship, from the wheat's perspective, they piggyback on human intelligence to carry it to the stars
31:50 Fragility seems false, bible story 7 years of plenty followed by 7 years of famine
32:42 a story not woven: the two games support each other and interpenetrate each other
34:30 Demonising complicated technology
35:48 our society has a lot of externality processes that we don't account for
36:12 we filled up the radio wave spectrum
38:34 would Thomas Edison still have invented the light bulb if he had thought through the negative externalities of his invention? Probably yes
39:51 we can feed people but polluting the river is bad, ideally we can do both but that's still coming
40:44 "technology good" and "technology bad" are both wrong beliefs
44:34 There's a fundamental battle of "what is your base metaphysical belief" from which other phenomena sprout out of
45:41 they are constructing the frame to make the solution fit
47:34 Suddenly scared of how easy it is to manipulate other people's understanding of reality
49:38 The Christian structure of religion inoculates you against polytheism
50:28 polytheism vs monotheism (spiral dynamics 2nd level - purple)
55:49 everything is happening all the time vs the single pointed witness
57:30 the Pre-Trans fallacy
59:36 how did a seemingly crazy person rise a status hierarchy while they were seemingly insane
1:00:27 They are not just the backwards weirdos, they are the forwards geniuses (Elon, russell brand, John Mcaffee). It's very hard to integrate these things
1:03:22 They propose that adherence to the structure of society is inherent to game A
1:04:22 There are both natural laws and society laws and if you don't follow them, you find out what happens
1:05:31 a thorn to remove a thorn, but is this actually removing the thorn?
1:06:58 they could have said, "what keeps the parasite in place is that we started to generate our own laws of society and following them so that we get along" but they mixed up game A and game B concepts
1:07:45 "no artificial flavours" naturalist fallacy, and a personal story about allergies
1:11:45 ask more questions
