From illusory enemy to true enemy. Moment 146

Following up on the considerations in the previous Moment. Hysteria can make my human non-enemy into an enemy, but it can’t make a pandemic into my enemy. Our community’s emergent state affects the state of other communities, but cannot affect the state of a viral enemy. No big conclusion here, just noting — in many ways to myself — to follow up more on the dynamics of narratives built to fight a non-human enemy, versus the more complex dynamics of two opposing and interacting narratives.
