The many evils that populate social forms/institutions/peoples/tends/politics, have one thing in common. They are not concerned with maximizing evil.
What this means is: They understand that all they need to win is a greater than zero percentage point increase over any consistent period of time.
Evil focuses on 1% gains, or less. AI will be very useful and helpful to them in this. They work hard to analyze social metrics, systems, trends and scouring data in order to figure out the simplest way to achieve that 1% gain in any field or area or situation or context.
If they can achieve a little 1% gain in their respective domain, they understand this means they win. They also understand that by not pushing further, they make sure the massess and average normie will accept the 1% gain in evil and hardly even notice.
If you are observing cultural or social or psychological or political phenomena that seem to be gradually becoming more degenerate, entropic, irrational, myopic, narcissistic, unsympathetic, violent, tyrannical over time… then you are observing an example of the nature of evil I am talking about here.
The good news is that it is really this easy to overcome evil: all you need to do is increase good by more than 1%. Tip the scales back toward good, even if only slightly. That is ALL that is needed. You do not need to conquer hell or blow up the Death Star. You don’t need to be a jedi knight to correct evil in the world. Simply make sure you are always over-balanced on the sides of good in every situation, and try to spread that ethos and vibe and logic wherever you go. Encourage slight metrics and measurements of more good in every situation, even if evils still remain.
