How will be changed by algorithms?

 The people who lived in communism are peculiar.

They don't trust people. Anyone could be an informant for government.

They don't share feelings, problems, anything can be used against them.

This behavior was an adaption to a surveillance state.

How will adapt to current surveillance state and to current manipulation ?

Now not only the state wants your secrets but the sales men.

Liberal, fascist, left wing, liberal,... Repeat

 Fascism appeared when liberal ruled failed, economy was captured by an oligarchy.

The laws were ignored by rich, poor didn't believed the system.

People needed a leader loial to them, who has a personal bond.

When the leader failed to deliver, people become more decentralized and more left wing.

The benefits became spread more equally, economy developed and liberal middle class and upper class took control.

Till the economy concentrated in the hand of few, and then system colapsed and fascism appeared again.

The dynamic is very visible in western Europe but not in US, because Franklin Delano Roosevelt broke the cycle and jumped directly to socialism, by his reforms.

Why Cain killed Abel

 In Old Testament in book of Genesis we have the story of an envious brother who kills Abel because Abel had the grace of God.

What could stopped the envy of Cain to escalate into murder would have been a common value between Abel and Cain.

In a boxing match do you think that the loser envies the winner?

I doubt.

Why ?

We have clear value:  the one that beats the other is the best.

And we got an instant feedback.

Also every participant could improve his skills.

In Cain and Abel story, Abel buys the favor of God with great sacrifices, we don't know why he is better or chosen one.

We don't have a feedback, Cain works more but receives less 

Cain can't do anything to improve his relationship with God.

US is like in Cain and Abel story, you don't have a clear valuation of people, 2 old demented guys were presidents.

You don't have a feedback, you work more but your factory is closed and moved overseas.

There are opportunities in tech but you have to buy a course from university.

Interesting the pilgrims who colonized new England were a Calvinists in their theology and thought that God rewards you on this world.

So we have a Cain Abel situation, that really happened: Luigi Mangione killed United Health Alliance manager.

A disposed Cain killed the one favoured by fate, Abel.

PS.

This situation is not specific to the US. But it manifests more violent there.
