The BLINDNESS of TRUMP and TRUMP SUPPORTERS
PREFACE: BINARY LOGIC is the source of GLOBAL DYSFUNCTION as manifests in the RUSSIA-UKRAINE CONFLICT, the ISRAEL-PALESTINE CONFLICT and the PAKISTAN-INDIA CONFLICT. BINARY LOGIC LEADS TO UNRESOLVABLE POLARIZED OPPOSITION. LESS SIMPLE QUANTUM LOGIC “MAKES SENSE” AND IT DOES NOT LEAD, AS BINARY LOGIC DOES, TO DIAMETRICALLY OPPOSING CONFLICTS AS IN THE IMAGINATION OF INDEPENDENT NATIONS THAT IMAGINE THEMSELVES IN PURSUIT OF THEIR OWN NATIONAL INTERESTS BECAUSE QUANTUM LOGIC GIVES US THE UNDERSTANDING THAT EVERYTHING IS INTERCONNECTED and INTERDEPENDENT in which case THE PURSUIT OF INDEPENDENT NATIONAL INTERESTS ON A BINARY LOGIC “WE ARE IN THE RIGHT AND THEY ARE IN THE WRONG” BASIS IS MADNESS which is afflicting PEOPLE who are FORGETTING the INCOMPLETENESS OF ALL FINITE BINARY LOGIC PROPOSITIONS. In the REAL WORLD of our SENSE-EXPERIENCE, everything is INTERCONNECTED and INTERDEPENDENT and it is ONLY IN THE INTELLECTUAL ABSTRACT PSEUDO-WORLD of LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS WHERE BINARY LOGIC BASED “DECLARATIONS OF INDEPENDENCE” appear to ‘make sense’. The FLY IN THE OINTMENT is that ALL FINITE BINARY LOGIC BASED PROPOSITIONS ARE INCOMPLETE so WHILE the PROPOSITION that DECLARES THE EXISTENCE OF A NATION of such and such an AREA with such and such a POPULATION, may well be TRUE, such a truth is INCOMPLETE since if fails to acknowledge the INNATE INTERCONNECTION and INTERDEPENDENCE OF SUCH NATIONS, in which case, there is NOTHING THAT CAN BE SAID IN TERMS OF THE “GROWTH” and ‘”DEVELOPMENT” and “PRODUCTION” of a PARTICULAR NATION. As Nietzsche has pointed out, PROPOSITIONS such as ‘THE TOWN is GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods’ which imputes to the TOWN, POWERS of LOCAL AUTHORING, are the synthetic illusions of the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR.
The BINARIES which are so popular in the SPEECHES of the LEADERS involved in the RUSSIA-UKRAINE CONFLICT, the ISRAEL-PALESTINE CONFLICT and the PAKISTAN-INDIA CONFLICT are CHERRY-PICKED TRUTHS which are INCOMPLETE, NOT ARBITRARILY OR BY ACCIDENT, BUT in a strategically crafted, political guided manner, as is shown to be possible by Goedel’s Theorem of the INCOMPLETENESS of all finite logical propositions. The ENTIRELY FALSE INFERENCE is that EACH NATION is INDEPENDENT and is the FULL AND SOLE AUTHOR OF THE ACTIONS OF THE NATION, as rests on the BINARY LOGIC based abstract assumption of the “INDEPENDENT NATION” as given by NAMING which notionally establishes BEING coupled with GRAMMAR which notionally equips the NAMING-instantiated BEING with ‘IT’S OWN POWERS OF LOCAL AUTHORING of actions and development’. This contrivance Nietzsche labelled “the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR” which supports the synthetic notion of LOCAL AUTHORING.
I have added this PREFACE to share that while this essay orients to a particular topic; i.e. The BLINDNESS of TRUMP and TRUMP SUPPORTERS, it points to systemic faults in WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING that go well beyond the confusion being introduced by TRUMP who is attempting to promote the dumbing down of the WESTERN CULTURE mode of linguistic conceptualizing from LEVEL 1 AWARENESS of TRANSFORMATION to level 3 AWARE CONSERVATISM, inducing backlash from level 2 AWARE LIBERALS which is being directed at CONSERVATIVES, setting up LEVEL 3 – LEVEL 2 ping-ponging conflict that is obscuring the fact that resolution of BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC conflict comes with LEVEL 1 QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC AWARENESS.
* * * * * * * * * *
ALL OF US HAVE AN ‘AWARENESS’ which we can OPEN UP or CLOSE DOWN on a THREE LEVELS OF AWARENESS basis, as has been described in different ways by different investigators, the classic overview coming in the writings of Systems theorist Erich Jantsch and his description of how we have the option to HOME IN ON “OUR FAVOURITE” LEVEL OF AWARENESS which creates DIVISION BETWEEN US given the reality of ‘DIFFERENT STROKES FOR DIFFERENT FOLKS’.
DONALD TRUMP is what we can call the advocate of OPENING UP (ONLY AS FAR AS) TO LEVEL 3 AWARENESS which is PRODUCTION, which is the LOWEST AWARENESS of the THREE LEVELS, the LEVEL 2 AWARENESS being CONSUMPTION and the HIGHEST LEVEL OF AWARENESS, LEVEL 1 AWARENESS, BEING the AWARENESS OF TRANSFORMATION that is ALL-INCLUDING.
TRUMP has a SINGLE-MINDED AWARENESS THAT IS FOCUSED ON PRODUCTION as is clear in his desire to GET THINGS DONE without getting bogged down by CONSORTIA DISCUSSIONS where there is endless debate (the reason why he has now put together a collection of ministers in his government who are all “YES-MEN”). Such a profile describes LEVEL 3 AWARE CONSERVATIVES who dedicate their AWARENESS to PRODUCTION. Next is LEVEL 2 AWARE LIBERALS who support PRODUCTION but ONLY in a balanced relation with CONSUMPTION. Thus for example, while TRUMP “OPENS HIS AWARENESS UP TO THE LEVEL 3 FOCUS ON PRODUCTION OF A FANTASTIC RECREATIONAL COMPLEX in that currently occupied area called the GAZA STRIP, the LIBERAL AWARENESS would TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE “CONSUMPTION” of the TRADITIONAL LIVING QUARTERS OF PALESTINIANS.
LEVEL 1 AWARENESS is the AWARENESS OF TRANSFORMATION which WE HAVE DROPPED OUT of our WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME by our popular use of BINARY LOGIC, … LOGIC that is TOO SIMPLE to bring forth the AWARENESS of LEVEL 1 TRANSFORMATION. This DROPPING OUT of LEVEL 1 AWARENESS in WESTERN CULTURE GENERALLY, has given rise to a BINARY LOGIC based POLARIZING DIVISION into CONSERVATIVE LEVEL 3 (the simplest) AWARENESS OF ‘GETTING THINGS DONE” (PRODUCTION), AND LEVEL 2 (less simple) AWARENESS OF ‘CONSUMPTION’ (the utilizing of PRODUCTION). SINCE BINARY LOGIC CONSTRAINS AWARENESS TO JUST THE TWO OPPOSITE AWARENESS LEVELS i.e. LEVEL 3 PRODUCTION and LEVEL 2 CONSUMPTION, THERE IS NOTHING BEYOND THIS BINARY SPLIT, NO ‘OPEN SLOT’ for LEVEL 1 AWARENESS of TRANSFORMATION which is the HIGHEST LEVEL OF AWARENESS. LESS SIMPLE QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDING MEDIUM IS NEEDED TO TAKE US TO LEVEL 1 TRANSFORMATION.
IN ORDER TO TUNE IN TO THAT HIGHEST LEVEL 1 AWARENESS, one has to UPGRADE from BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM to “QUANTUM” “BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM” wherein the OPPOSITES of LEVEL 3 PRODUCTION and LEVEL 2 CONSUMPTION are RECONCILED WITHIN LEVEL 1 TRANSFORMATION. This RECONCILING OF APPARENTLY OPPOSING CONSERVATIVE PRODUCTION oriented AWARENESS and LIBERAL CONSUMPTION oriented AWARENESS comes with the MODERN PHYSICS understanding that we are living in an ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM aka a WAVE-FIELD WORLD wherein the composition of what is happening derives from the conjugate relation of PRODUCTION and CONSUMPTION WHICH IS TRANSFORMATION (and NOT, as BINARY LOGIC would have it, PRODUCED MATTER CONSUMED IN EMPTY SPACE).
There is a problem here in the manner in which LANGUAGE informs AWARENESS in that the CONSERVATIVE LEVEL 3 AWARENESS OF PRODUCTION is seen as the POLAR OPPOSITE of the LIBERAL LEVEL 2 AWARENESS OF CONSUMPTION, and that POLARIZATION is manifest in WESTERN CULTURE where BINARY LOGIC dominates in COMMON LANGUAGE USAGE (LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS). AS LONG AS BINARY LOGIC THINKING PREVAILS, THERE IS NO ACCESS, BY WAY OF LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION, TO LEVEL 1 AWARENESS. ACCESS to AWARENESS LEVEL 1 comes with the acknowledging “THE CONJUGATE RELATION THAT RESOLVES THE POLAR OPPOSITION BETWEEEN CONSERVATIVE LEVEL 3 AWARENESS (PRODUCTION) and LIBERAL LEVEL 2 AWARENESS (CONSUMPTION);
We can imagine CONSERVATIVES and LIBERALS arguing in the following fashion; [CONSERVATIVE] “WE HAVE PRODUCED A WONDERFUL NEW RECREATIONAL PARK” in the GAZA STRIP, while at the same time the LIBERAL will argue; [LIBERAL] “YOU HAVE CONSUMED AN IMPORTANT AND ESSENTIAL ESTABLISHED ACCOMMODATING RESOURCE FOR PALESTINIANS”.
These are TWO DIFFERENT LEVELS OF AWARENESS ‘that are SPEAKING’ and they are BOTH “TRUE” but as we know from Goedel’s Theorem, ALL FINITE LOGICAL PROPOSITIONS ARE INCOMPLETE, so SPEAKING THE TRUTH is ALWAYS INCOMPLETE and thus NEVER ‘TELLING THE FULL STORY’. What happens in cases like this, is that ANGRY FACTIONS DEVELOP AND BECOME POLARIZED AGAINST EACH OTHER because they have POLAR OPPOSITE AWARENESS of what is going on which is CONCRETIZED with BINARY LOGIC.
As with PRODUCTION and CONSUMPTION, these BINARY LOGIC OPPOSITES are mutually resolved in LEVEL 1 AWARENESS of TRANSFORMATION… BUT THIS RESOLVING OF OPPOSITES requires QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM, as described here by Vygotsky, who is complaining that WE WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS WHO ARE USING SIMPLE BINARY LOGIC ARE MISSING, IN OUR LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING, THE LESS SIMPLE REALITY OF TRANSFORMATION (which is BEYOND THE SIMPLE BINARIES OF PRODUCTION AND CONSUMPTION AND WHICH REQUIRES LESS SIMPLE “QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDING MEDIUM” OF “TRANSFORMATION”)
THERE IS THUS A PROBLEM IN OUR WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME DERIVING FROM THE USE OF TOO-SIMPLE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC OF THE EXCLUDED MEDIUM, WHERE LESS SIMPLE “QUANTUM” BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM IS REQUIRED. This point is made in the following disagreement between Vygotsky and Piaget where Piaget has supported the traditional but DYSFUNCTIONAL giving of foundational status in linguistic conceptualization to BINARY LOGIC.
Vygotsky observes;
“Though fundamentally different in nature, the development of scientific and spontaneous concepts represents two sides of the same concept formation”
“Our disagreement with Piaget centers on one point only, but an important point. He assumes that development and instruction are entirely separate, incommensurate processes, that the function of instruction is merely to introduce adult ways of thinking, which conflict with the child’s own and eventually supplant them. Such a supposition stems from the old psychological tradition of separating the structural from the functional aspects of development.” –Vygotsky
This comes from Vygotsky’s research into THOUGHT and LANGUAGE as discussed in Vygotsky’s; Мышление И Речь, Психологические Исследования – … Myshleniye I Rech’, Psikhologicheskiye Issledovaniya (Thinking and Speech, Psychological Research).
These terms ‘scientific’ and ‘spontaneous’ concepts refer to our option to “OPEN UP OUR AWARENESS’ to the SPONTANEOUS which is NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT AWARENESS (e.g. of the relational world before we pin labels on things) where we are AWARE that EVERYTHING IS IN NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT RELATIONAL FLUX, and then HOME IN WITH OUR VOYEUR CROWS-EYE JUDGEMENT IMPOSING EYES ON THE LOCAL and EXPLICIT and ASSIGNING NAMES to the BROKEN DOWN PARTS (e.g. ‘THERE IS A TOWN OVER THERE WHICH IS GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING THINGS). INDIGENOUS ABORIGINAL CULTURES, on the other hand, use language that is grounded in relations which GIVES NO FOUNDATIONAL ROLE TO BEING-BASED ABSTRACTIONS COUPLED WITH GRAMMAR (which Nietzsche calls the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR). This DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR is how we REDUCE the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT (there is towning in the transforming landscape) to the LOCAL and EXPLICIT (the town is growing, developing and producing goods), the latter (LOCAL and EXPLICIT) making use of the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR which supports the ABSTRACTION of LOCAL AUTHORING of actions and development.
* * * * *
There is NO STANDARD TERMINOLOGY when we go back to this continuing progressive development of our THOUGHT AND LANGUAGE combination, but if we LOOK THROUGH THE EYES OF VYGOTSKY to understand his allegation of PIAGET’s mistake, and thus with the MISTAKE that has been built into WESTERN CULTURE STANDARD use of THOUGHT and LANGUAGE, we can see that Vygotsky is tuned into the WAVE-FIELD STRUCTURE OF OUR REALITY as is evident in his statement “Though fundamentally different in nature, the development of scientific and spontaneous concepts represents two sides of the same concept formation”
Vygotsky is saying that the LOCAL AND EXPLICIT (PRODUCTION/ASSERTING) aka the scientific and the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT (CONSUMPTION/ACCOMMODATING) aka the spontaneous, are a CONJUGATE UNITY. What is being described here is the WAVE-FIELD STRUCURE where the WAVE-PEAK is PRODUCING and the WAVE-TROUGH is CONSUMING, BUT WHERE THESE ARE NOT TWO SEPARATE REALITIES BUT JUST ONE COMBINED REALITY (two sides of the same concept) WHICH IS TRANSFORMATION. PIAGET is THINKING (MISTAKENLY) in the case of LEARNING, that THE SCIENTIFIC and the SPONTANEOUS are TWO SEPARATE APPROACHES where, for the NEAT AND TIDY APPROACH, we can SEQUESTER AND USE ONLY THE SCIENTIFIC and disencumber ourselves from the SPONTANEOUS.
CAN WE PICTURE THIS? Where there is TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE and where everything is in continuing transformative flux according to our sense-experience, WE ARE GOING TO ‘HIGHLIGHT’ “THE TOWN” as we can do by ADJUSTING OUR AWARENESS AND SWITCHING TO AWARENESS LEVEL 3 where we bring forth a notional ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE and PLUNK THE TOWN DOWN IN THAT EMPTY SPACE so that OUR AWARENESS will NOT be distracted by the ambient dynamics in which the TOWNING is situated, and which MAY BE, in the MINDS OF LOCAL RESIDENTS be a more BASIC REALITY in the same sense as the CLUSTERING of ants DOES NOT HAVE ITS OWN REALITY, but is only APPEARANCE (SCHAUMKOMMEN) associated with RESONANCE in the GATHERING/SCATTERING that belongs to the whole TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE, in which case WE WOULD BE MISTAKEN (i.e. we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS ARE MISTAKEN) in employing a LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME that MISREPRESENTS the GATHERING/SCATTERING FEATURE (the TOWNING) as being a LOCAL and EXPLICIT THING-IN-ITSELF, an ERROR that we CONFLATE with a SECOND ERROR of GRAMMAR that IMPUTES to the CLUSTERING ACTIVITY we are now calling a BEING-BASED CLUSTER WITH ITS OWN POWERS OF LOCAL AUTHORING OF ACTIONS AND DEVELOPMENT as in ‘THE TOWN IS GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING good’. It is evident that, as our sense-experience is informing us, the CLUSTERING or TOWNING is a GATHERING-SCATTERING FEATURE within the overall dynamic which is NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT and NOT A LOCAL THING-IN-ITSELF with its own POWERS OF LOCAL AUTHORING OF actions and development, as our BINARY LOGIC based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATION.
As Nietzsche has pointed out, this WESTERN CULTURE practice of using the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR to INVENT THE NOTION OF LOCAL AUTHORING OF ACTIONS AND DEVELOPMENTS is pervasive in WESTERN CULTURE. WHAT THIS DOES IS TO OPEN UP OUR AWARENESS THAT PUTS US INTO AN UNREAL SYNTHETIC PSEUDO-REALITY constructed by (A) SPLITTING APART THE MALE AND FEMALE, i.e. PRODUCTION and CONSUMPTION ASPECTS of our REALITY (of inclusion in the energy-charged PLENUM). HEY! ACTHTUNG! , NOTA BENE! … PRODUCTION AND CONSUMPTION DO NOT SPLIT APART INTO TWO SEPARATE DYNAMICS, because they are IN REALITY, TWO ASPECTS OF A SINGLE DYNAMIC. In PLAIN TERMS, PRODUCTION and CONSUMPTION have no separate LIVES OF THEIR OWN, there is ONLY TRANSFORMATION which we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS “BREAK DOWN” INTO the TWO NOTIONAL DYNAMICS of “PRODUCTION” and “CONSUMPTION” and while we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS “PLAY THIS LANGUAGE-STIMULATED GAME THAT INCLUDES US”, we are INCLUDED in a TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM which is the ACTUAL DYNAMIC that we speak of using the TWO TERMS “PRODUCTION” and “CONSUMPTION”, both of which, in retrospect, ARE MEANINGLESS since TRANSFORMATION is the REALITY and has a WAVE-FIELD BASIS meaning that the MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING “PRODUCTION” and the FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING “CONSUMPTION” are “IN REALITY”, only the ONE DYNAMIC of TRANSFORMATION; i.e. “Though fundamentally different in nature, the development of scientific and spontaneous concepts represents two sides of the same concept formation”
PRODUCTION concepts are MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING while CONSUMPTION concepts are FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING which brings us back to our AWARENESS LEVELS of which there are THREE LEVELS; , CONSERVATIVE which gives priority ONE-SIDEDLY to MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING PRODUCTION, and LIBERAL which gives priority ONE-SIDEDLY to FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING CONSUMPTION. We can see how the BINARY LOGIC OPPOSING INTERPRETATONS can arise here of CONSERVATIVE ‘TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMY’ where the EMPHASIS is placed on PRODUCTION and the support of PRODUCERS, … whereas the LIBERAL EMPATHY for those less capable of PRODUCING, is sometimes expressed in the MARXIST aphorism, FROM EVERYONE ACCORDING TO THEIR PRODUCTIVE ABILITY and TO EVERYONE ACCORDING TO THEIR CONSUMER NEEDS.
This BINARY OPPOSITES WAY OF LOOKING AT THINGS, which gives us a LIMITED AWARENESS wherein we are ONLY AWARE OF THERE BEING TWO OPPOSITES TO CHOOSE BETWEEN, “OBSCURES” AWARENESS of the GREATER QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDING MEDIUM PERSPECTIVE, wherein the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT (TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE) is in a natural precedence over the LOCAL and EXPLICIT (TOWN THAT IS GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods). Notice that the concept of GROWTH is ITSELF A BINARY LOGIC ONE-SIDED NOTION as if the THING THAT IS GROWING is situated within an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE, otherwise we would be talking about TRANSFORMATION where there is NOT ONLY THE ONE-SIDED MALE ASSERTING/ACTUALIZING “GROWTH” BUT ALSO, IN CONJUGATE RELATION, a FEMALE ACCOMMODATING/ENABLING “CONSUMPTION”, and as already mentioned, . “Though fundamentally different in nature, the development of scientific and spontaneous concepts represents two sides of the same concept formation”“

The BLINDNESS of TRUMP and TRUMP SUPPORTERS
I do NOT MEAN by this title which is AIMED AT CONSERVATIVES , to “LET LIBERALS OFF THE HOOK”. The problem of BLINDNESS lies in belief in the BINARY which is what DIVIDES people into CONSERVATIVE and LIBERAL OPPOSING CAMPS. THE BINARY SPLIT IS ABSTRACTION and thus there ARE NO SUBSTANTIVE GROUNDS FOR THE POLARIZING DYNAMICS OF CONSERVATIVES and LIBERALS. Their ARGUMENT WITH ONE ANOTHER, being wrongly based on LEVELS OF AWARENESS in regard to LOCAL AUTHORING of ACTIONS AND DEVELOPMENT (CONSERVATIVE LEVEL 3 AWARENESS versus LIBERAL LEVEL 2 AWARENESS) is NOT THE BASIC ISSUE, the BASIC ISSUE remains INVISIBLE pending the RESTORING OF LEVEL 1 AWARENESS which is BEYOND THE CAPABILITY of BINARY LOGIC and requires the BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM aka QUANTUM LOGIC which supports LEVEL 1 AWARENESS OF TRANSFORMATION.
Indigenous aboriginal cultures DO NOT SUFFER FROM THIS BINARY LOGIC based DIVISION into POLARIZED OPPOSITES of CONSERVATIVE and LIBERAL because it is an ARTIFACT of giving a foundational role in linguistic conceptualizing to BINARY LOGIC, and indigenous aboriginal linguistic conceptualizing is supported by flow-based language which employs the BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM wherein there is NO HARD SPLIT SUCH AS MATTER AND EMPTY SPACE, but instead, the soft split into the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM and its CONDENSATIONS, the SOFT SPLIT being that of the BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDING MEDIUM, which supports the understanding that EVERYTHING IS INTERCONNECTED and INTERDEPENDENT. Such relationships are supported by the BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM (the space-is-full model)… BUT ARE NOT SUPPORTED BY the EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM (the empty space model). That is, … the understanding that FORMS are CONDENSATIONS of the ALL-INCLUDING ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM means that EVERYTHING IS RELATED (mitakuye oyasin).
The BLINDNESS of TRUMP and TRUMP SUPPORTERSderives from “BEING”-based LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS and I use “LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS” rather than “LANGUAGE” because we have fallen into the habit of mistaken thinking that THERE IS A REALITY “OUT THERE” (as if it existed apart from our [voyeur] selves), that we are CAPTURING WITH LANGUAGE and so, for example, it may be possible for us to CAPTURE “IT” BETTER IN FRENCH than in ENGLISH. But for an indigenous aboriginal whose understanding is that we are STRANDS IN THE WEB (inclusions within the INTERCONNECTED, INTERDEPENDENT relational matrix we are participants within), it is IMPOSSIBLE to come up with a VOYEUR description of the ALL-INCLUDING TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM WE ALL SHARE INCLUSION IN. As Lao Tzu observed, “the Tao than can be told is not the true Tao”.
Much has been written about this problem as is pointed to by Korzybski’s aphorism “the map is not the territory” or “the word is not the thing”, where THE REALITY IS THAT THERE IS NO ‘IT” that we can capture in the all-including transforming relational continuum, which is ONE GOOD REASON for designing FLOW-BASED LANGUAGES such as indigenous aboriginal languages where one says “THERE IS TOWNING IN THE TRANSFORMING LANDSCAPE” where the TOWNING is acknowledged to be APPEARANCE of a flow-feature within a flowing aka transforming relational continuum, in which case there is no exposure to CONFUSING THE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING for a copy of the SENSE-EXPERIENCE AFFIRMED REALITY which is a reality that we share inclusion in and that we cannot capture in a Voyeur viewing. This is a point well made by indigenous aboriginals as in the observation;
Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.”— “Chief Seattle”
As mentioned often in my writing, because it is often FORGOTTEN, our WESTERN CULTURE has BUILT INTO OUR LANGUAGE, the DOUBLE ERROR of NAMING and GRAMMAR which supports the ABSTRACT NOTION of the LOCAL AUTHORING OF ACTIONS and DEVELOPMENT, such as ‘THE TOWN IS GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods’. This DOUBLE ERROR as it is labelled by Nietzsche INVENTS the ABSTRACTION of LOCAL AUTHORING of actions and development, which, IN ONE FELL SWOOP, gets rid our AWARENESS of inclusion in a TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM and SITS US DOWN IN A SIMPLIFIED PSEUDO-REALITY constituted by MATERIAL OBJECTS in a notional ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE, as is suggested by ‘The TOWN is GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods’. Likewise, we can speak of the PRODUCTIVE HUMAN or the PRODUCTIVE ORGANIZATION that is GROWING, DEVELOPING and PRODUCING goods. These are SIMPLIFIED NON-REALITIES which appeal to, or perhaps DEFINE LEVEL 3 AWARENESS addicts such as TRUMP who LOCK ON to their AWARENESS of PRODUCTION as if it were OUT THE CONTEXT OF CONSUMPTION, as if one could PRODUCE a NEW REALITY in the GAZA STRIP without conjugate LOSS or CONSUMPTION (e.g. of the long-term residents of the region). FOR US WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS, it is very common for us to speak in the one-sided BINARY LOGIC supported terms of PRODUCTION as if it were possible in its own right, without the encumberment of a conjugate CONSUMPTION, BUT WHILE ONE-SIDED PRODUCTION (without CONSUMPTION) IS POSSIBLE IN OUR LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE in our SENSE-EXPERIENCE REALITY wherein EVERYTHING IS IN TRANSFORMATIVE FLUX which means that our language must be able to handle ANDROGYNOUS CONCEPTUALIZATIONS as where PEAK and TROUGH are ONE and PRODUCTION and CONSUMPTION ARE ONE (i.e. TRANSFORMATION). “Though fundamentally different in nature, the development of PRODUCTION concepts and CONSUMPTION concepts represent two sides of the same concept formation which is known as TRANSFORMATION”.
In other words, TRANSFORMATION IS THE WAVE-FIELD DYNAMIC and it is WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON, while PRODUCTION and CONSUMPTION, or for that matter, BIRTH and DEATH, are simple BINARY LOGIC based REDUCTIONS of the QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM wherein PRODUCTION concepts and CONSUMPTION concepts represent two sides of the same concept formation which is known as TRANSFORMATION”.

CLOSING NOTE:
As the WESTERN CULTURE reader will note, we WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS GIVE A FOUNDATIONAL ROLE TO “BINARY LOGIC” IN THE DEFINING OF OURSELVES. Without BINARY LOGIC, we could NOT HAVE LOCAL AUTHORING, and without LOCAL AUTHORING, we could NOT have WESTERN CULTURE PURIFICATIONIST JUSTICE and WESTERN CULTURE ALLOPATHIC MEDICINE. Of course, as has been described in the above, the DOWNSIDE is LIMITING OF OUR AWARENESS to AWARENESS LEVELS 3 and 2 which are TOO SIMPLE to support AWARENESS LEVEL 1, the AWARENESS OF TRANSFORMATION which is ALL-INCLUDING, in which WE ARE CONDENSATIONS and IN WHICH, EVERYTHING IS RELATED (mitakuye oyasin) in the manner of CONDENSATIONS in the all-including ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM.
The findings of Vygotsky, Bohm, Schroedinger, as far as the masses of WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS are concern, are seen as INTERESTING and POTENTIALLY VALUABLE in the context of how we can build better mousetraps, but so far, there is no WHOLESALE WESTERN CULTURE TRANSFORMATION and for those of us who have adopted BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM based understandings such as ‘we are all related’ which leads to RESTORATIVE JUSTICE and many other relational harmony oriented social patterns that have DISTINGUISHED the INDIGENOUS BORIGINAL CULTURE from WESTERN CULTURE, we remain MAHAVITS who practice in our own personal spheres, RESTORATIVE JUSTICE while at the same time, continuing to “GO ALONG WITH” the WESTERN CULTURE BINARY LOGIC (GOOD OR EVIL) BASED PURIFICATIONIST STANDARD. I CAN SEE WHAT’S STOPPING WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS, GENERALLY, TO MOVE TO THE MORE REASONABLE QUANTUM LOGIC understandings and social behaviours, which is the current BINARY LOGIC based REWARDS, RECOGNITION and PUNISHMENT and DENIGRATION schemes. To BEGIN WITH, WESTERN CULTURE CURRENT AWARENESS STANDARDS (limited to CONSERVATIVE AWARENESS LEVEL 3 and LIBERAL AWARENESS LEVEL 2) are actively maintained as commonly SUPPORTED BELIEF, resulting in the rise to the LEVELS OF ‘MOST RESPECTED’ WESTERN CULTURE MEMBERS being those are seen as the strongest supporters of the NORMS of our current BINARY LOGIC based SOCIAL DYNAMIC. The MOST RESPECTED and the MOST INFLUENTIAL are therefore those who seen to BEST RECITE AND EXTOLL THE TOO SIMPLE PROPOSITIONS OF BINARY LOGIC (i.e. actively using BINARY LOGIC to identify those deserving of REWARDS and ADMIRATION and those deserving of PUNISHMENT and DENIGRATION).
HEY, WAIT A MINUTE, WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE THOSE OF WHO TRY TO SHARE THE NATURAL SUPERIORITY OF QUANTUM LOGIC and thus need to GET OFF THE BINARY LOGIC BANDAGON. As the saying goes, it is the pioneers who ‘get the arrows up their ass’, and innovator Henri Laborit expresses this in regard to this subject we are discussing, of acknowledging LESS SIMPLE QUANTUM LOGIC as being needed to replace too simple BINARY LOGIC.
We’ who explore such topics, cannot easily share them because (a) they do not fit into the typical dinner conversation format of our present culture, since to express them takes a lot of relational connections that can’t fit into a rapid-fire repartee, and (b) because the humanism implicit in trying to share them is not seen as “a humanism of real worth” since it undermines, besmirches or topples the esteemed icons, pillars of society, founding fathers, and celebrities of the culture-in-place. – Henri Laborit, ‘La Nouvelle Grille’ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henri_Laborit

OKAY, last few comments on “The BLINDNESS of TRUMP and TRUMP SUPPORTERS”, with all of the background in this note to support them. WE LIVE IN A WAVE-FIELD WORLD aka the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM where QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC IS ESSENTIAL TO SPEAK OF IT, and BINARY LOGIC IS INSUFFICIENT AND SIMPLY HOLDS US BACK AND MIRES US DOWN IN A POLARIZING CONFLICT BETWEEN THE MALE AND FEMALE POLES OF BINARY LOGIC which are the CONSERVATIVE and LIBERAL POLES. THESE OPPOSING POLES ARE UNRECONCILABLE, BEING BASED ON DEBATE USING BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC where PRODUCTION is the OPPOSITE of CONSUMPTION so that while CONSERVATIVES argue to OPTIMIZE PRODUCTION using a TRICKLE DOWN SCHEME which enriches the MOST PRODUCTIVE while SACRIFICING AND ALLOWING TO STARVE, THOSE WE ARE SEEN AS THE LEAST PRODUCTIVE (CRIPPLED MUSICIANS etc.) all in support, so it is said, of MAXIMIZING PRODUCTION. The LIBERALS WORK THE CONSUMPTION SIDE OF THINGS, making sure of equitable distribution instead of OVER-FEEDING THE PROPORTED MAJOR PRODUCERS. This CONSERVATIVE VIEW is the source of the BOGUS ‘SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST’ CONCEPT which is esteemed by CONSERVATIVES;
”Every species of animals naturally multiplies in proportion to the means of their subsistence, and no species can ever multiply beyond it. But in civilized society it is only among the inferior ranks of people that the scantiness of subsistence can set limits to the further multiplication of the human species; and it can do so in no other way than by destroying a great part of the children which their fruitful marriages produce.” —Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations 1776
LIBERALS ARGUE AGAINST the over-simplistic TRICKLE-DOWN approach of the CONSERVATIVES and the TWO get into the usual HEAD BASHING POLARIZED DISAGREEMENT.
BOTH are basing their understanding (misunderstanding) ON LOCAL AUTHORING which is an UNREAL ARTIFACT of over-simplistic BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM; i.e. when connective medium is EXCLUDED as it is in WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS, an implicit SUBSTITUTING OF ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE is made, LEAVING NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO ATTRIBUTE THE DYNAMICS OF NATURE TO MATERIAL FORMS, … MATERIAL FORMS WHICH IN THE QUANTUM LOGIC UNDERSTANDING OF MODERN PHYSICS and INDIGENOUS ABORIGINAL CULTURES (the strands-in-the-web structure of reality), ARE CONDENSATIONS of the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM thus establishing the BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM relation wherein EVERYTHING IS INTERCONNECTED and INTERDEPENDENT. In these case, the ENERGIZING SOURCE is the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM while the CONDENSATIONS are SECONDARY and simply APPEARANCE based (SCHAUMKOMMEN).
IN WESTERN CULTURE, BOTH CONSERVATIVES AND LIBERALS ARE IMPRISONED IN A TOO-SIMPLE BINARY LOGIC PSEUDO-WORLD, OUT OF WHICH THERE IS NO ESCAPE APART FROM UPGRADING LOGIC FROM BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC of the EXCLUDED MEDIUM to QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM, consistent with the findings of Vygotsky and Modern physics, but as mentioned CONTRARY to the ambient social pressures … because the humanism implicit in trying to share them is not seen as “a humanism of real worth” since it undermines, besmirches or topples the esteemed icons, pillars of society, founding fathers, and celebrities of the culture-in-place. – Henri Laborit

POSTSCRIPT: REVIEW OF THE BROADER IMPLICATIONS OF THE INCOMPLETENESS OF BINARY LOGIC
Indigneous aboriginal cultures naturally employ “QUANTUM” BOTH/AND LOGIC of the INCLUDING MEDIUM, which does NOT have the exposures to ERRORS of INCOMPLETENESS that ‘come with’ BINARY LOGIC. For example, the UNDERSTANDING of indigenous aboriginal cultures is CONSISTENT WITH MODERN PHYSICS in understanding the world of our SENSE-EXPERIENCE as a NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT UNFOLDING, rather than in LOCAL and EXPLICIT terms, which leads to RESTORATIVE JUSTICE (co-cultivating relational harmony to resolve emergent relational dissonance) rather than WESTERN CULTURE PURIFICATIONIST JUSTICE (suppressing or eliminating the AUTHORS of WRONG-DOING). Both MODERN PHYSICS and indigenous aboriginal cultures understand emergent events as NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT in origin, which is why there is NO NOTION OF A BINARY PERPETRATOR-VICTIM scenario, but INSTEAD, the understanding that the ROOTS of emergent violence or dysfunction derive from the RELATIONAL MATRIX as suggested by ‘MITAKUYE OYASIN’ (everything is related) which is AFFIRMED by MODERN PHYSICS wherein material forms are CONDENSATIONS of the all-including ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM aka WAVE-FIELD wherein INTERCONNECTION and INTERDEPENDENCE IS FOUNDATIONAL. There is NO SUPPORT for the abstract WESTERN CULTURE notion of “INDEPENDENT BEINGS” that move about and interact within an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE, which continues to play THE FOUNDATIONAL ROLE IN OUR WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME.
“QUANTUM” BOTH/AND LOGIC OF THE INCLUDING MEDIUM, comes directly from our sense-experience grounded understanding, and supports the MODERN PHYSICS and indigenous aboriginal, Taoist/Buddhist and Advaita Vedanta worldview wherein we ourselves, and all material forms, are condensations to the all-including energy-charged PLENUM as expressed by the metaphor of STRANDS IN THE WEB of LIFE e.g. “Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.”— “Chief Seattle”
This understanding of the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT sourcing of emergent reality leads to RESTORATIVE JUSTICE where the web of interdependencies make it IMPOSSIBLE to isolate the “LOCAL ORIGIN” (there is none!) of a manifest EMERGENT ACTION or DEVELOPMENT. In this case, where there is EMERGENT VIOLENCE, it is POINTLESS to search for ‘THE AUTHORING SOURCE’ (conduit, yes, but authoring source, no, since everything is related [mitakuye oyasin] as with STRANDS IN A WEB). What does ‘make sense’ in this interconnected and interdependent web-of-life world, is for social collectives to come together in “HEALING CIRCLES”, avoiding the OVER-SIMPLISTIC AGATHA CHRISTIE “WHODUNNIT” investigations followed by the CRUCIFIXION (incarceration or execution) of the so-called “GUILTY PARTY”. Again, THERE IS NO LOCAL, EXPLICIT GUILTY PARTY in a STRANDS IN THE WEB dynamic wherein everything is INTERCONNECTED and INTERDEPENDENT as with CONDENSATIONS in the commons of the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM.
The NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT origin of EMERGENT EVENTS in the belief system of indigenous aboriginals, Taoists/Buddhists and Advaita Vedanat IS SUPPORTED BY MODERN PHYSICS and by the understanding of the world of our sense-experience as an ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM locally distinguished by CONDENSATIONS which, although they are, IN REALITY, APPEARANCES belonging to the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT (relational), are commonly MISCONCEIVED IN WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZATIONS as LOCAL and EXPLICIT THINGS-IN-THEMSELVES that move about and interact within a notional ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE.
Our WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING HABIT is to OVERLOOK or FORGET that in the TRANSFORMING FLUID CONTINUUM, the WHORLINGS IN THE FLOWING DO NOT HAVE DYNAMICS OF THEIR OWN, the WHORLINGS are “APPEARANCE” in the sense of “ONE OF THE WAYS THAT FLOWING MANIFESTS”. In VERB BASED LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALING SCHEMES such as those of indigenous aboriginals, the WHORLINGS are “NEVER GIVEN BEING STATUS” in which case there is NO TRANSFER OF AUTHORING POWER from the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT FLOWING (in which the WHORLING is only APPEARANCE) to the WHORLING as if it were LOCAL and EXPLICIT and equipped with ITS OWN AUTHORING POWER and as if it were situated within an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE. This WESTERN CULTURE NOUN-BASED RE-CONCEPTUALIZATION SCHEME GETS RID OF THE QUANTUM BOTH/AND LOGIC FOUNDATION (where the WHORLING is BOTH itself AND the containing energy-charged PLENUM it is included in), and INFUSES THE RADICALLY MORE SIMPLE BINARY EITHER/OR LOGIC FOUNDATION that supports the abstract notion of LOCAL and EXPLICIT BEING-based ENTITIES in ABSOLUTE EMPTY and INFINITE SPACE.
THAT IS, ‘the WHORLING IN THE FLOWING’ is notionally LIFTED OUT OF THE FLOWING AND RE-SITUATED WITHIN A NOTIONAL ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE wherein the WHORLING is PROMOTED (in LANGUAGE AND PSYCHE) from SCHAUMKOMMEN (APPEARANCE) TO A NOTIONAL THING-IN-ITSELF, notionally within an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE CONTAINING SPACE, which OUT OF LOGICAL NECESSITY, RE-INVENTS THE AUTHORING POWER, moving it from the NONLOCAL and IMPLICIT ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM (soon to become the ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE), TO THE PURPORTEDLY DISCONNECTED/INDEPENDENT “LOCAL AND EXPLICIT” CONDENSATIONS. GOODBYE TRANSFORMING RELATIONAL CONTINUUM WITH ITS “SECONDARY” CONDENSATIONS (which are only APPEARANCE), HELLO ABSOLUTE PASSIVE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE POPULATED BY notional LOCAL and EXPLICIT ACTIVE ELEMENTS, notionally with THEIR OWN POWERS OF AUTHORING ACTIONS AND DEVELOPMENTS.
THIS INVERTING OF THE AUTHORING SOURCE … REMOVING IT FROM THE BODY OF THE ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM (aka the WAVE-FIELD) AND RESITUATING IT WITHIN THE SECONDARY CONDENSATIONS OF THE ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM, which are identifiable as LOCAL, EXPLICIT entities, while at the same time DROPPING OUT THE ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM AND SUBSTITUTING ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE SPACE, …COMPLETES THE “TRANSFER OF POWER” FROM THE NONLOCAL AND IMPLICIT PLENUM to the “SECONDARY APPEARANCE BASED CONDENSATIONS”, in this WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC “RE”-CONCEPTUALIZING EXERCISE.
WE WESTERN CULTURE ADHERENTS KNOW HOW THAT REDEFINING ‘FEELS’. At some level, we are still STRANDS-IN-THE-WEB wherein ALL MY RELATIONS (mitakuye oyasin) applies, while our WESTERN CULTURE LINGUISTIC CONCEPTUALIZING SCHEME has us continually repeating to ourselves (Wittgenstein) that we are DISCONNECTED (INDEPENDENT) MATERIAL BEINGS moving about and interacting within an ABSOLUTE EMPTY AND INFINITE CONTAINING SPACE. which is QUITE A SHIFT and POWER TRANSFER from the QUANTUM LOGIC CONDENSATION in the ENERGY-CHARGED PLENUM. While MODERN PHYSICS insists that the QUANTUM LOGIC STRANDS IN THE WEB IS THE OPERATIVE REALITY, WESTERN CULTURE continues to employ the SIMPLER BINARY LOGIC BASED INDEPENDENT MATERIAL FORMS IN EMPTY SPACE WORLDVIEW, which continues to infuse FRAGMENTATION and OBSCURANTISM into the misinformed SOCIAL COLLECTIVE.
1 FRAGMENTATION AND WHOLENESS (from Wholeness and the Implicate Order by David Bohm)
The title of this chapter is ‘Fragmentation and wholeness’. It is especially important to consider this question today, for fragmentation is now very widespread, not only throughout society, but also in each individual; and this is leading to a kind of general confusion of the mind, which creates an endless series of problems and interferes with our clarity of perception so seriously as to prevent us from being able to solve most of them.
Thus art, science, technology, and human work in general, are divided up into specialities, each considered to be separate in essence from the others. Becoming dissatisfied with this state of affairs, men have set up further interdisciplinary subjects, which were intended to unite these specialities, but these new subjects have ultimately served mainly to add further separate fragments. Then, society as a whole has developed in such a way that it is broken up into separate nations and different religious, political, economic, racial groups, etc. Man’s natural environment has correspondingly been seen as an aggregate of separately existent parts, to be exploited by different groups of people. Similarly, each individual human being has been fragmented into a large number of separate and conflicting compartments, according to his different desires, aims, ambitions, loyalties, psychological characteristics, etc., to such an extent that it is generally accepted that some degree of neurosis is inevitable, while many individuals going beyond the ‘normal’ limits of fragmentation are classified as paranoid, schizoid, psychotic, etc.
This POSTSCRIPT: REVIEW OF THE BROADER IMPLICATIONS OF THE INCOMPLETENESS OF BINARY LOGIC has been included to put in perspective The BLINDNESS of TRUMP and TRUMP SUPPORTERS. That is, the OVERALL PICTURE includes the influence of the LOGIC and LANGUAGE ON THOUGHT and how CULTURAL VARIANTS spring forth from such choices as whether we give foundational roles to BINARY LOGIC or QUANTUM LOGIC, the latter opening the way to the WAVE-FIELD based understanding (TRANSFORMATION), as in indigenous aboriginal cultures, Taoism/Budhism and Advaita Vedanta while the former constrains us to simple MECHANICS and TRANSACTIONS, our persisting ‘WESTERN CULTURE NORMAL’, and the FRAGMENTATION and OBSCURANTISM that gives rise to.
