The topic of the month is from a discussion on the Discord which started with the following questions: How much are the endogroups weakening? Can we say that they are all weakening?
I’ve already given my opinion on that, so instead of a direct reply I have started a tool that will help us measure the creation, collapse or strength of endogroups. The following are key components of endogroups that we can look at to measure their strength and its direction over time for each endogroup. This is a first draft until I have time to develop something more complete.
The most important point to check is the law of endoreality:
All virtue, ownership, credit and victimhood are assigned to the endo-ideal and all vice, guilt and punishment are assigned to the negative image, by all committed members of the endogroup.
As I’ve explained before, the point of OpDeathEaters was to assign predatory guilt to the endo-ideals of every power structure at once. It would have been far easier to use inter-endogroup conflict to accuse one set at a time (like I did with OpGabon and earlier campaigns) but I wanted to see if we could start a conversation about the predatory nature of power structures to the point that people would start to look for this guilt every time they saw an endogroup power structure. At that point (2012-2015) this was a very difficult fight and extremely few people were even willing to consider unjustifiable guilt attached to a non-rival endo-ideal. I think we are now at the point where people expect to find this sort of guilt at the top and are even unsurprised to think of global power as organized crime. People are also rejecting victim blaming and endo-ideal justification or victimhood when it appears, as well. Guilt is no longer being automatically transferred. This indicates a drastic reduction in the committed endogroup members in the past decade, for most endogroups,
There are other endo-ideal powers we can look at, such as the right to define endoreality, which includes defining the topics which preoccupy the group. In the same 2012-2015 era I was fighting to remove the focus from men with guns and entertainment celebrities in the news and share some spotlight with the huge amount of humanity that were unheard. There are two things I have noticed recently.
Join the Binding Chaos community to discuss the stages of widespread endogroup weakening!
