Exploring collapse theory, memetic friction, and institutional decay. Independent researcher building a new systems framework. DM for collaboration and critique
🧵 Why do civilizations collapse — not just from war or debt, but from the weight of their own ideas?
I call it the Memetic Friction Principle — and it may be a missing law of system decay.
Here’s what it is, how it works, and why it matters. 👇
@phelgo@c_valenzuelab People had similar feelings to CD’s and vinyl. The sounds were criticized as being harsh, cold, or clinical.
Eventually, the feelings changed and now most people feel the reverse.
There is always a reluctance when it comes to new tech.
@renault_captain@stanfordNYC@henstepping If your only reference point is a 1040EZ form, you probably don’t know enough about taxes either, as it was discontinued in 2017.
@ItzGravity2U@MonsieurPhilly@DiamondSpiderP It’s odd that the same characters were created with no one reading them. Wonder how that happened.
Just because you don’t read them, doesn’t mean no one else reads them.
The number of people calling you out proves you wrong, and proves people do/have read them.
@Gtwy@ReeceMellor0@ThrillaRilla369 Corporations should cover the loss, not steal from the customer to cover the problem.
The change should be rounded up, not down.
@Mericamemed If anyone actually understood civil wars, they would understand that neither “side” wins.
The system wins, and every person loses.
People then choose to identify with sides, because winning or losing together beats the realization that you’re alone and lost.
@AntiCommieBecca Men will say they wouldn’t do those things, but psychology teaches us that is not true. Every man would. Those who wouldn’t, would never be in the position to begin with.
However, it’s not just men. It’s also women, as the files show.
Humans are apex predators.
@jgs_TX@elonmusk The Bible, if you believe in it proves you wrong.
1 Timothy 6:10
“For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.”
It’s the love of money, not money itself.
@elonmusk No, anyone that thinks money doesn’t buy happiness just doesn’t know where to shop, or is in the same boat as you and sold your soul.
You can’t buy happiness because your money came at the expense of your soul.
Still looking for a wild island party?
@EitanChitayat@eliezraofficial Shooting babies in the head because you have no choice isn’t the righteous defense you might think it is.
Hypocrites, like all psychopaths.
@Acyn Of course the man that says grab by the pussy, when you’re rich and famous they let you, isn’t in the files as a predator.
Why would a self admitted predator be in the files of predators.?
The guy that openly bragged about SA’ing people and how they just let you do it when you’re rich and famous, who ran in the same circles as JE, definitely did not SA anyone and is not a predator, which is why he wants you to move on from the files that prove democrats guilty. 🤣
@KimberlyPember6@allenanalysis It’s one big club and they are ALL in it. The left can’t use it to attack Trump as it would expose them as well.
It’s pointless to take down the ship, when you’re onboard and there are no life jackets.
@TrumpGirlOnFire Except he is an idiot. You don’t get to redefine a word, and then use the new definition to argue a point.
I mean, I guess you do and some people will think you’re high IQ, but you’re really just disingenuous.
@Thevictoria76 They aren’t silly coincidences, but correlation does not equate to causation.
The lower death rate is because of Narcan distribution, not a decrease in drug smuggling at the border.
The lower homicide rate is a continuation from a 25 year drop, not because of the border.
