     Domineering   people  are  preoccupied  with  a  very
limited number of considerations which are their  ultimate
concerns ---  to the exclusion of many other complementary
considerations:

                Some of their Ultimate Concerns:

     1.  Being secure through always being invulnerable.
     2.  Unilaterally identifying and eliminating threats.
     3.  Being faithful to the exclusive core-gang.
     4.  Feeling-good about self/exclusive-core-gang.

           Some Excluded Complementary Considerations:

     1.  Communal integrities and health,
     2.  Personal integrities and health,
     3.  Learning through open & honest dialogue,
     4.  Learning from personal experiences and mistakes,
     5.  Facilitating cooperation and collaboration,
     6.  Responding prudently to environmental changes,

     8.  Evolving conceptual frameworks and paradigms,
     9.  Why arrogance & self-righteousness are evil,
    10.  Why isolation/alienation are dysfunctional,
    11.  Why meanings of people/symbols are contextual,

    18.  Acknowledging "different" people's rights,
    19.  Acknowledging unintended consequences/costs,
    20.  Acknowledging all paradigms' limits/limitations,
    21.  The interdependence of individuals & relations,
    22.  Evil as residing in dysfunctional relationships,
    23.  Why collusions are tragically dysfunctional,
    24.  Why addictions are tragically dysfunctional,
    25.  Why codependent supporters are dysfunctional,
    26.  Why "The Domination System" is dysfunctional,
    27.  Why victims support the above exclusivities,
    28.  Why victims are blind to the above exclusivities,
    29.  Why we resist dealing with the above,
    30.  How to transcend/subvert the above exclusivities.

     The  style of the responses of domineering people  to
events,   circumstances  and other people ---   are  often
dysfunctional in the following kinds of ways:

     1.  Attack      12.  Gossip     23.  Punish
      2.  Sulk        13.  Pretend    24.  Restrict
       3.  Flight      14.  Arrogate   25.  Imprison
        4.  Grudge      15.  Steal      26.  Destroy
         5.  Resent      16.  Dominate   27.  Repress
          6.  Revenge     17.  Control    28.  Suppress
           7.  Sabotage    18.  Contend    29.  Vulnerate
            8.  Conspire    19.  Object     30.  Confuse
             9.  Collude     20.  Reject     31.  Ensnare
           10.  Entrap      21.  Coerce     32.  Repress
          11.  Suppress    22.  Bully      33.Seduce

     The  above  kinds  of  responses do  not  promote  or
facilitate  personal  or  communal  integrities  ---   and
instead   lead   people   into   personal   and   communal
disintegrations;   including  their  own   disintegrations
through  failures to function in their own long-term  best
interests.
