     To  many   people   the   alienation,   estrangement,
blocked     dialogues,     excommunications,    confusion,
misunderstandings,   ignorance,  and fear which flow  from
behaviors  of  supporters  of  "The Domination System"  --
-      all   seem   to  be  costly   consequences   of   a
dysfunctional   pattern   of   behavior.     Yet,    those
consequences seem advantageous  to the supporters of  "The
Domination System" because:                               
                                                          
     1.  Alienated/estranged people are easier to dominate
and control than are members of coherent communities.     
                                                          
     2.  Blocked dialogues make it impossible for  victims
of  domination  to  recognize,   understand  and   subvert
domineering  people's  efforts  to  achieve   unquestioned
dominance over their victims.                             
                                                          
     3.  People  who  are  full  of  confusion, ignorance,
misunderstandings  and fears are  more  easily manipulated
---   than  are  people  who  have  clear  understandings,
reliable information, understand each other,  and are free
from fear --- and so are able to cooperate with each other
in resisting domineering people's manipulations.          
                                                          
     4.  People  who  are  just beginning  to  try  to  be
successful  at being domineering ---  are no where near as
able  to  be successful at being domineering ---   as  are
people who have long experience at being domineering.  New
converts to the worship of "The Domination System"  are at
a severe disadvantage compared to the long-term supporters
of  "The  Domination  System".    The  spoils  go  to  the
experienced supporters of "The Domination System"  --- not
to newly converted former lovers.                         
                                                          
     5.  The  more fully that people can be tricked and/or
seduced  into  making use of tools such  as:   dishonesty,
deception,   misleading  behaviors,   secrecy,   coercion,
punishments,  arrogance, self-righteousness, etc. ---  the
less likely it is that they will be able to be true-lovers
who can in non-violent ways recognize,  understand,  name,
describe,  and subvert the superior efforts of experienced
supporters of "The Domination System".                    
                                                          
                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
