More and more, social, technological and political innovations make it possible for all of us to win at the same time.

---I’m just curious as to whom you include in the ‘all of us’ in the ‘winners’ group? Since as you so, in a limited way, but succinctly put it, “For one person to get out of a relationship to find a better one, one person must have their heart crushed. It's a fundamental organization of the universe.” For one individual to ‘win/have a positive’, in one way, there is a ‘loss/negative’, in another aspect, for another or the same individual.

In the process, "evil" will destroy the old ways of life, select against them, until all that is left is the cooperative structure. There will still be competition, but organized competition - not the imbalanced process we most recognize as evil.

---You don’t see the loss/negative/limits in an organized co-operative? To have such a system, usually means that only certain paths are allowed to be chosen. To go outside those walls will cause, what is believed to be, unnecessary and unpredictable disorder or ‘evil’.
---I do understand that such a Federated system is a peaceful and mostly predictable way of existence. I even push for it in other discussions. There is just something about it that I believe/know is wrong/bad/evil in pertaining to an entirety of existence context.

In the mean time, we act cruelly to criminals because we need to clear obstacles to the greater good, but by calling what we are doing just or good, we ignore that they too were created by the process and our treatment of them is merely a short-term evil justified by a long-term good.

---Evil is done, at a single point in time, so that as time passes good might arise from it at another point. The reverse is true as well; from doing good, at certain point in time, evil might arise from it as time passes.
