Evolution is self-'cooking' of 'circumstances', resulting in the soupe 'life'

On earth the soupe 'life' (life is geology) in the few thousands of years for humans could be expressed in 'Empires'. A kind of 'Webs of Reason' of local prejudices.
Not seldom genocidal and absolute.
But Empires are temporary, and vanish when other Empires take over.


VERY seldom agressive cultural addictions lead nature towards emergency breaks. Natural disasters like temperature change, earthquakes, tsunami's, volcano outbursts, floodings etc, and cultural disasters like 'recession', fear, anger, lead to paradigm shifts to keep change moving

Web of Reason - Rational Addiction"

Recently I saw a documentary showing that volcanic eruptions can be preducted by looking at the increasing frequency produced by their resonance waves.
That made me realize that warnings for social eruptions (annihilating cultural addictions) are resonance waves caused by ever in frequency increasing social shocks.

It was Herbert Marcuse who wrote: The web of domination has become the web of Reason itself, and this society is fatally entangled in it. Translated he wrote: The Western World got suffocated by the doctrine 'rationality'. But although the Western addiction 'rationality' was disastrous for nature it only for 'a moment' halted growth (variation/selection). Growth is building pressure, and an eruption comes near.

Seen that way the first two in the human world noticed social shocks were the thoughts of Darwin and Nietzsche. It was followed by two Western World shocks both caused by Ludwig Wittgenstein, one as a youth and one in his forties. That was soon followed in 1962 by the major work of Thomas Kuhn. That work caused a series of social shocks but in the Western World rest superficiously returned.

In overview:
1880: Nietzsche: Also Sprach Zarathustra
1914-1918: WW-I, MINOR eruption 1922: Wittgenstein: Tractatus Logicus Philosophicus
1940-1945: WWII, MINOR eruption 1953: Wittgenstein: Philosophical Investigations (language as 'Web of Reason')
1962: Thomas Kuhn: The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (about 'Science' as 'Web of Reason')
1964: Herbert Marcuse: One Dimensional Man (Flower Power as alternative for 'Web of Reason')
1968: Suffocated Protest of Youth in Europe and America. 'Web of Reason' gets mean (fascist traits)
1969: Herbert Marcuse: Eros and Civilization (the young as freedom fighters)
1979-1989: Russian 'Web of Reason' Forces hunt for Oil in Afghanistan (Afghan War I)
1989: US 'Web of Reason' Forces inspire Fall of Soviet Empire (Fall Berlin Wall)
19..: several Osama Bin Laden attacks on 'Web of Reason'
1995-20..: Israel - Emotional Palestine Conflict (US makes a tiny splinter in a HUGE oil desert explosive)
2001: Twin Tower attack (The Oil Desert hits Web of Reason in the heart)
2001-2002: US desperately defends its 'Rational Addiction = Web of Reason' in Afghanistan (Afghan War II), several shocks
2003-20..: US even more desperate defends 'Rational Addiction = Web of Reason' in Iraq, a lot of shocks

The One: Last time I looked at this site was years ago. In the meantime 2 times most of my sites (see overview) disappeared for months from Google. Not this one, but that means: 2 times I had to start at level 0 visitors. Nothing to worry about, but that means predictions always remain estimations that suffer under chance.
Anyway my websites aim at preventing the rational addiction going berserk.

Looking at the increasing frequency a social revolution is very near. It goes like shock.......shock......shock..shock.shock...sh.sh.ssssss.
Don't wait for BOOM!
The start of the 21st century and the western World recession are perfect occasions, to leave the western Ages of Rationality.
Also to say a friendly farewell to the equally 'rational' confused communist chinese government
And give an audience to common sense (like The Dalai Lama).
