To understand what I am saying, keep in mind the truth of self-organization of processes without self-awareness, for instance swarming. This happens at all levels of organization in the universe. The realization that self-organization exists, allows us to observe civilization as a dynamic force now far more powerful than our own human animal dynamic.

I live in the hope that members of an elite think tank could find a way to find a simple way to honestly and sincerely point out these kinds of problems to all of humanity, instead of trying to control them. The main problem is the systemic opportunistic leverage of several mild human weaknesses for instance what I see as a relatively mild intrinsic duplicity in the human ape, and the resultant hotbed of civilization-as-machine mindlessly and apocalyptically consuming the biosphere, including human life. Yes, humanity is NOT responsible for the destruction of the earth. It is the self-organizing universe-as-machine nearly completely naively doing it.

The key to me is the kind of language civilization directs us to speak, which deterministically shapes our mental and material action. I think a central symptom of our “societal” mythology as human, is the idea of free will as it subjects us to esoteric authority whose free will is supposedly better informed, or in keeping with historical mythological tradition, closer to godly will because of the illusion that some are intrinstically better than others. Human will and godly will are birds of a feather. We cannot properly view the deterministic mechanics of the process if a non-existent element like God’s Will and Free Will are emotionally interjected and iconized.

The kind of language humanity speak is utterly wrong for self-preservation. Instead of domesticating our inherent weaknesses appropriate for life of survival in prehistoric nature, ideas like pseudo-godly independent agency opportunistically stir them up, because of the heightened competitive dialectic and material dynamics of our slavish participation in organizational processes.

Conclusion

The realization is that the idea of free will is not only wrong and not necessary, but fatal.

The full dynamic of the universe is a transfer of energy/information, regardless of whether there are loops of incomplete information stirring up the process: 1) genetics (sexual selection) 2) memetics (reality selection). The idea of free will is a cover-up in a process systemically bent, by way of the institution of incomplete feedback loops of ideas as in (2), on evolving humanity out of existence.
