Predators

Civility is not compatible with predatory activities.

How do you know you do not predate upon human vulnerabilities?

Politicians will continue to ignore the structural causes of despair because they are beneficiaries of those structures.  They have no understanding of psychological trauma and its long-term consequences.

They harvest information from and about sufferers for predatory purposes.  They are hunting for votes.  They do not care.  They are incapable of doing so.  They do not want to change the systems, or the corrupt culture associated with those systems.

But who is truly investing in better communities?

And who is investing appropriately in good patronage?

Are you?

If so, how are you attempting to thwart the nasty culture of corrupt political patronage in Australia, and elsewhere?

What do you know about predatory cultural practices?

Some people simply want to play games, possibly including predatory ones.

Some people want to improve civility in the world but fail to lead by example.

What are your goals, and how do you know they are not predatory?
