KEYS **** Domineering-People are often "looking for a fight" because the only "positive" gain they know about - - - is "winning-a-fight" or "winning-a-conflict" - - - within which by-definition there must be losers. There' can be no winners - - - if there are no losers! One gracious way to Mitigate-our-own-Alienative-Conflicts - - - is to create cooperative/collaborative efforts - - - which demonstrate that people can get-ahead-together - - - more robustly and Sustainablely in cooperative- efforts - - - than in Alienative-Competitive-Contentious efforts - - - - where there must be losers! By generating cooperative examples of Getting-Ahead-Together - - - we can change the "definition" about how ESSENTIAL losers are - - - to Domineering-Bullies "Getting-Ahead". Domineering-Bullies are seeking to GET-MORE-FAVORABLE-ATTENTION - - - than other-people-get. They can't get that kind of fulfillment within the context of truly collaborative-team-efforts - - - so they go looking for fights which they can win - - - with the help of losers who permit them to "feel-superior". Losers are Essential- Helpers to Domineering-Bullies Feeling-Honorable. Domineering-Bullies are DEPENDENT-UPON-LOSERS! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The SUSTAINABILITY OF GLOBAL CIVILIZATION depends upon the vast majority of the members of the whole crew of Space- Ship-Earth Avoiding-Tragic-Seductions into playing the deadly Alienative-Games-of-Mutual-Self-Deception of Domineering- Bullies and Mobbing-Mobsters - - - who are looking for FIGHTS AND ALIENATIVE-COMPETITIONS - - - which they can "WIN" with the help-of-losers whose presence proveS their superiority in ALIENATION-AND-DESPERATION. To LONG-TERM-SURVIVE as a Well-Integrated Crew of this Astronomically-Tiny-and-Isolated Space-Ship-Earth - - - we all need to work on AVOIDING-SEDUCTION INTO ALIENATIVE: Fights, Competitions, Battles, Attacks, Defenses, Polarizations, Dichotomies, Repressions, Suppressions, Segregations, Rank-Ordering, Hierarchies, etc. - - - that threaten all Civility, Civilization, Cooperation, True-Lovers and Mitigators of Alienative-Conflicts.
