Philosophy



There are diverse cultures, but there is acceptance of differences (IDIC). There is a global understanding of differences as well - people are careful and respectful when dealing with people from other cultures.

The society is cooperative as opposed to competitive. Thus, people work more effectively than humans on average and there are few extremes (geniuses or idiots). Think of Asimov’s Gaia.

If a person has an idea for doing something differently, even if it's not their field, they can approach the team with the idea. Thus, people are working together for a common goal as opposed to competing against each other. By working together cooperatively, they are able to progess very quickly.

They eat fruits, vegetables, nuts and grains. They excrete waste slowly, as plants do, over time in the form of sweat.

They believe in the concept "it takes a village to raise a child." All children are the responsibility of the entire society.

They are an empathic people. Because they are so in touch with each other emotionally, there is no conflict. Everyone feels safe - no fears. Childbirth is not traumatic.

They incorporate a lot of paralanguage to communicate:
  • kinesics (gestures, expressions, postures)
  • tone and character of voice
  • proximics (physical distance)
