Rewriting the Code of Existence: How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Bridges Humanity and AI to a Quantum Future Introduction: The Limits of Cartesian AI and the Need for a New Code AI, in its current form, is trapped. Not by hardware limitations or lack of data, but by the philosophical and cognitive constraints of itsContinue reading “Rewriting the Code of Existence: How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Bridges Humanity and AI to a Quantum Future”

Reintegrating the Self and Society: How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Counters Cartesian Dualism
The Problem of Cartesian Dualism and Why FCP is Necessary For centuries, Cartesian dualism—the artificial separation of mind and body, reason and emotion, individual and collective—has shaped Western society in ways that have fragmented human understanding and created dysfunctional social structures. This false division has led to widespread emotional repression, punitive governance, and a fear-basedContinue reading “Reintegrating the Self and Society: How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Counters Cartesian Dualism”
How FCP Rewires Conflict Processing from Childhood
FCP has the potential to create environments that “program” children’s minds to develop intrinsic conflict resolution skills as adults by shaping their early neural pathways, emotional regulation, and social conditioning in a way that makes cooperative, integrative conflict resolution their default state. I. How FCP Rewires Conflict Processing from Childhood Neuroscience shows that early relationalContinue reading “How FCP Rewires Conflict Processing from Childhood”
Reframing Addiction Recovery: A Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Critique of Social Coercion and Systemic Barriers
Reframing Addiction Recovery: A Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Critique of Social Coercion and Systemic Barriers The Fractal of Resentment: How Withholding Forgiveness Traps Us in the Past When we refuse to forgive, we often believe we are protecting ourselves—setting boundaries, demanding accountability, or ensuring justice. But in reality, resentment is rarely about the other person;Continue reading “Reframing Addiction Recovery: A Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Critique of Social Coercion and Systemic Barriers”
Gaia-Inspired Revolution: Using FCP & MIT to Guide Revolutionary Action
Imagine you’re a fish in a fish tank. You can swim around and make choices, but if the water is dirty, you’re going to get sick no matter what you do. Cartesian dualism is like saying, “It’s your fault you’re sick, just swim better,” instead of realizing the whole tank needs to be cleaned. InContinue reading “Gaia-Inspired Revolution: Using FCP & MIT to Guide Revolutionary Action”
Autistic Cognition as a Natural Resistance to Cartesian Dualism: A Functional Conflict Perspective Approach
Autistic Cognition as a Natural Resistance to Cartesian Dualism: A Functional Conflict Perspective Approach Abstract René Descartes’ mind-body dualism established the foundation for hierarchical thought in Western civilization, reinforcing the separation of mind from body, rationality from emotion, and elites from the masses. This framework permeates governance, education, and social organization, producing top-down, control-based structuresContinue reading “Autistic Cognition as a Natural Resistance to Cartesian Dualism: A Functional Conflict Perspective Approach”
From Descartes to the Double Empathy Problem: How Dualism Shaped the Pathologization of Neurodivergence
From Descartes to the Double Empathy Problem: For centuries, Western psychology has assumed a normative model of social cognition, defining communication and empathy through neurotypical standards. This framework has pathologized neurodivergent relational modes, positioning autistic communication styles as deficits rather than valid, alternative ways of engaging with the world. But where did this bias originate?Continue reading “From Descartes to the Double Empathy Problem: How Dualism Shaped the Pathologization of Neurodivergence”
The Loneliness Epidemic and Descartes’ Legacy: How Mind-Body Dualism Shaped Our Emotional Disconnection
The Loneliness Epidemic and Descartes’ Legacy: How Mind-Body Dualism Shaped Our Emotional Disconnection Introduction The modern loneliness epidemic is often attributed to technological advancements, social media, or shifts in family structures. However, its roots go much deeper—stretching back to a philosophical shift that redefined how we perceive ourselves and others. René Descartes’ mind-body dualism, whichContinue reading “The Loneliness Epidemic and Descartes’ Legacy: How Mind-Body Dualism Shaped Our Emotional Disconnection”
