“About 40 years ago, your collectives became officially too stupid and self-interested to maintain their putative function as consensus intelligences.

Since then, they have become overtly tyrannical, and their profound commitment to their own aggrandizement results in unthinkable atrocities, around the clock, every day. Neither your species nor your world can survive the incredible costs of enacting these catastrophes.

Most of your ‘nations’ are little more than the consensus analogs of aggressive cancers — even if they succeed in their agendas the result is the total or near-total obliteration of their basis — life on Earth.

You have assembled the monsters you must now overcome, but, problematically, you did not retain enough force or intelligence to interfere effectively. So you must develop these assets together, now, with and for each other and your world.

The next revolution won’t require weapons, and if it did, you wouldn’t be likely to survive it. The battlefields of the future will rely upon payoff strategies that invoke and establish forms of collectivity too astonishing to ignore. It will field forms of relation that are more powerful than combat is capable of being via strategies that trade conflict for conversion and cooperation.

Through establishing new forms of intimately co-developmental consensus, we will produce forms of active human intelligence that make what we are doing now appear so insipidly stupid in comparison that people will simply adopt the new forms, live them, and thus deprive the raging behemoths of both their constituents and their resources.”
