patrix 3
DESCRIPTION
provocative proposal regarding social fallout from previous climate disruption episodes - draft versionTRANSCRIPT
Argument, new data and questions arising
unresolved trauma - individual and social - causes recapitulation?
new data around historic climate change
was this traumatic?
has it been resolved?
are we ‘causing’ climate change in order to recapitulate unresolved history?
Possible social effects of climate change, early
holocene, and implications for now
For an individual ...unresolved emotional trauma seeks resolution (healing)
process is largely unconscious
reminiscent situations ‘restimulate’ old feelings and distressed thinking
leading to creation of experiences that resemble the original - ‘recapitulation’ http://www.terrylarimore.com/Recapitulation.html
and at the level of a society ...?
war as a commonly repeated pattern that benefits nobody...
a class system that damages all...
sexism that destroys the capacity for women and men to be authentic allies ...
are these all recapitulations?

engineered by artificial intelligence to
provide essential nutrients
by farming humans and
the truth is hidden by super realistic projection of a virtual reality pretending human self-determination

which is held in place by unresolved trauma
thus causing humans to enslave and abuse each other whilst we ‘recapitulate’ climate change (in attempts to heal)
and, meanwhile, we delude ourselves that we are rational and self-determining

De Meo’s ConclusionsDe Meo’s Conclusions• Human violence appears to have a
specific time and place of origins -
antisocial violence was not world-wide at all
times in the past!
• The origins of violence are precisely
timed to a major historical epoch of
climate change from relatively wet
towards dry/harsh conditions
• Recent data - frequent climate change
episodes
Holocene time line - 15,000 BCE to 1500 CE
Myth of Holocene as period of stable climate
see latest data (ice cores, sediment cores, coral stratification, dating techniques)
Significance :- substantial trauma through forced migrations, famine, severe competition etc. Resolved? No!!
pattern setting period of human settlement and cultural definition on top of chronic restimulation

Occluded intelligence means
• Unavailable capacity = denial• Irrational behavior (isms &
regressions)• Chronic hurts = addictions• Closed thinking = beliefs v.thinking• Chronic conflict =
