How one reads so many books on humanities and comes to the conclusion that we need more unprovoked coercion and violence as an answer to society's problems is beyond me.

I'm starting to get convinced that intellectual capability is not at all connected to morality.

“Starting to” huh!?

I'm quite young and inexperienced so you'll have to excuse my naivete on this

Imagine the most jaded you could be about government and then double it

Done 😂😂

i think they are completely decoupled.

I was under the false assumption that reading and literacy would provide a person with moral grounding.

It was naive of me.

yeah that doesn’t do it.

how we are raised makes some difference, but even that is not consistent. in the end, it seems to all come down to choice made at a spiritual level.

That makes sense, yep

I can agree

Interesting parallels between the concept of the #MiddlePath in Buddhism and the #NashEquilibrium in game theory...

1. Balance and Optimal Outcome:

-> The Middle Path promotes a balanced approach to life, avoiding extremes to achieve harmony and well-being.

-> Nash Equilibrium represents a balanced state in a strategic setting where no player can improve their outcome by unilaterally changing their strategy, thus reaching a stable, optimal outcome.

2. Avoiding Extremes:

-> In the Middle Path, extremes like indulgence and self-denial are avoided, focusing on a sustainable, moderate approach.

-> In Nash Equilibrium, strategies tend to stabilise where each participant reaches a point that avoids drastic changes, as changing to an extreme (or different) strategy wouldn't yield better results.

3. Interdependence and Mutual Respect:

-> The Middle Path encourages respect for oneself and others, recognising the #Interconnectedness of all beings.

-> Nash equilibrium relies on mutual recognition of others' strategies, as each participant's choice impacts the outcomes for all involved, creating a balance based on shared understanding.

4: Sustainable, Non-Harming Approach:

-> The Middle Path suggests a way of #life that does not cause harm to oneself or others, aiming for a peaceful coexistence .

-> Nash Equilibrium can lead to a "non-harming" approach in competitive environments , where participants reach a stable agreement without excessively disadvantaging one another .

While the #Middlepath focuses on personal and spiritual balance , and #NashEquilibrium focuses on strategic balance in competitive settings, both concepts underline the importance of Moderation , Stability, and respect for interconnected influences.
