Part of the role of the Government, the courts, and especially the police… is to act as the para-social analogy of ‘the immune system’ in our own bodies.

In our bodies, this system is unimaginably old and sophisticated far beyond the capacities of present science to ‘comprehend’ — science will »never catch up to nature in this regard, partly because nature is explosively older, faster at developing, and more sophisticated than any representational system will ever encompass.

But in our cultures, particularly American culture, the system that is analogous to the immune system is crude, primitive, misinformed, clumsy, hateful… forged on delusions… and cruelly maladapted for its actual purposes. This is partly due to the fact that our nation is very young, but there is a huge library of other causes.

Our Union, our nation, was meant to be intelligently reforged … regularly. This never happened. So we are living in a context whose structures are from ancient, colonial, warlike, histories. They are from Christianity, too. And in case it isn’t clear, before there were governments, per se, there were religions. And part of »their function was… specifically… to act as the social analogies of immune systems. This is where ‘kill the infidel’ comes from… the immune system’s primary feature is determining the difference between ‘Us’ and ‘Them’. And destroying… or at least ‘imprisoning’… ‘Them’.

So part of what we are seeing is really astonishing. We are seeing that our social immune systems are wildly malfunctioning. That they were »established in malfunction… at precisely the same time that our own, human immune systems… in our bodies… are becoming so overwhelmed with the biological equivalent of ‘fake news’, that our inner biology is matching up with the social situation (it always has, we just didn’t notice) in ways that … we should take a long, clear, careful look at.

Because it’s not an accident, this mirroring. It’s a message. And the message is that a cascade of crises are now in process… and if we cannot give intelligent answer?

Those systems… which are both empurposed with protecting us… will do precisely the opposite. And when the immune system attacks our own bodies… we have the biological analogy of civil war… but that’s not the only danger here. Not by a long shot…
