Yesterday my friend Alex, a Soviet physicist told me about positive feedback – a state in which atoms continuously upgrade one another’s energy – which happens in relationships too

Positive feedback is so counterintuitive yet so obviously true, that we must unravel it.

 

Because we live in a finite dimension of time space and matter we assume that all interactions create loss – for example, if I go to the store to buy bread, that means there is less bread on the shelves – In fact this idea of loss was obviously far more important in the olden days, hence there was tremendous competition (and jealousy) for goods – to a large extent this reality exists still in third world countries.

 

However positive feedback states, that all interactions (which are positive) create not a single positive event, but add to the general positive atmosphere and every event creates a better, more loving, more harmonious environment – this positive feedback can go on indefinitely!

 

This simple equation is at the heart of game-theory which is the fundamental difference between how prosperous democratic nations and stingy third world countries behave – As the founder of game theory Van-Nuemman said – “it is no use complaining about human behavior” – and this is not to say, we are better than them, but the factors of literally fighting for survival versus positive feedback become all-encompassing.

 

But woe onto s/he who in their foolish naïveté  doesn’t understand that though you may be in a state of positive feedback, Arabs and obviously terrorists, are in a state of negative feedback, in which their sole desire is your destruction, humiliation, for the sake of both raping your property and bodies, for the people in the negative feedback state are patently miserable, suffering from fear (as their world is “the ultimate fighting challenge” and only in love is there joy) and hence is willing to do anything for the momentary, egotistical high, found in rape.
