Greed is Not Good

The world does not reward what it most urgently needs. Peace, wisdom, unity, compassion, foresight—these qualities generate too little turbulence to capture bandwidth in networks tuned to maximize throughput. Conflict, by contrast, multiplies combinations of noise, feeding the entropic appetite of systems that scale dissonance into profit. The result is a Gordian knot: we require stability, yet corporatw commercial and populist political systems thrive on instability.

To cut through it is lonely work. Those who orient themselves toward improving the world itself, not merely their rank within it, are left stranded—without foothold, without fellowship, because the architecture of value now runs counter to their aim. The throughput accelerates, enriching a few misanthropic sycophants while the rest inherit only noise. Stop celebrating greed.
