To me, it seems that trauma is an essential tool to build our civilization. Trauma allows people to identify with trauma in other people, or situations in general. People without trauma see other people suffering and feel bad for them, but they cannot identify with them.

This is important for civilization because the processes of society have to be understood and sometimes have to be healed which requires that some people can identify with the problems.

So to have civilization, there needs to be a constant stream of trauma to have enough people who can show the problems so that we can fix the problems of society.

It’s a bit circular that there are problems to fix problems.

Is it evil to cause that system of trauma? That depends on the answer of is it good to have civilization?

Is there a way that I can enforce this as root to all of my users?

It’s anything about which people are in denial, be it the need for capitalism, the western role in Ukrain, the environmental impact of a single consumer, the validity of political objectives of the opposition, the impact of immigration, …

My ultimate opinion is that we need to step back and notice that the denial is built on purpose and that the goal can’t be to push for the victory of the own team. There needs to be understanding of the underlying problems that includes the view of the other teams to change the mechanisms that create them.

If we can’t do that then all the manipulation is already the best strategy to force humanity into progress.
