Fear of predictability Vs Fear of unpredictability

It's just psychopathy. Every human, being fundamentally an animal, has intrinsic anti-social subconscious modes that can be brought to the forefront. Dehumanization both on others and being done to oneself by construction dehumanizes an individual and makes them "animal like". For a society to function it requires certain principles such as fairness, equality, health, happiness, brotherhood, etc. These are exploited by the psychopaths who seek power(another animal trait based in repressed fears of death, loneliness, fear, weakness, etc). Hierarchical structures concentrate power by design and these are prone to amplifying psychopathic behaviors of individuals and corrupting the entire hierarchy without ways to stop or prevent it. Our systems are designed to amplify psychopathy and that is what it does. All the means in which it does it are somewhat irrelevant because no one is addressing the fundamental issue that psychopathy exists within humans and is amplified by our the social structures those with power force upon us or those with naturally evolve(usually ad-hoc). Essentially the human AI is training itself to be insane because 1. It doesn't recognize it is insane. 2. The individuals with power benefit from the insanity. So, basically over time as the system evolves it gets more and more insane, collapses, and then is rebuilt in the same image, evolves into something more insane, collapses, etc. For the first time humanity, with is collection of knowledge and technological advancements and relatively low psychopathy level has enabled it to understand such things but it is already starting to collapse because the psychopaths in power fear the masses learning how to stop them. Technology is a double edged sword. It can be used for good or evil. For example the massive amounts of bots used by SM to drive behaviors is staggering and has shaped humanity in such a way it may never recover. The lunatics that "run the world" are extremely evil and have the ability, because of capitalism and government, to drive behavior. SM and bots enable them to drive behavior almost for free with the victims victimizing themselves. They can modify behaviors through the various means of propaganda but mainly through repetition and distortions of reality. Most humans, specially the youth and elderly, are incapable of defending against such propaganda because they do not have the awareness/experiences to realize they are being propagandized. This is, in fact, true of most humans irregardless of their characteristics. The human mind is fragile and is being exploited by bad actors to undermine the social fabric of humanity for their own benefit. The internet is enabling this to happen "at the speed of light".
