Trailer Transcript:

I do think that unipolar thinking or either/or thinking is a generator function of the metacrisis. This is the core psychological imperative or impulse that has led to the metacrisis. If you just break it down... So, earlier I talked about how if you have, systematically, you're privileging one pole over the other, and there is a set of polarities where you're only privileging one, then they all stack. Then, you get compounding and more complex issues which has led to the metacrisis. What are some of these? They're quite obvious that they're not earthshakingly new framings. Focusing on the short term, not on the long term. Focusing on the part, not on the whole. Focusing on linear problem solving, and not systemic. Focusing on external, what's external, and not what's internal. Just, you know, taking concrete external material solutions, and not really thinking about culture or the human being for example.
