Ok, you've got me mulling on the Mud Pie.

#person 1 is: ORG

#person 2: decent enough type - enterprising - a good thing - Les Miserable style

But ultimately #person 1 sucker-feeds off that person as a control mechanism for the whole of Mudpie Town (pop 10)

I read Mud Pie as a philosophical proposition. In a microcosm of 10.

ORG is the entity we've been hot on the trail of at Formosa Hut ... listing its features ... this is a significant observation.

ORG is in everything. Our own bodies/brains are organized societies of cells that we know fuck all about.

P2-10 will live & die - P2 might live on in memory - or a random P3-10 - but P1, as ORG, crosses the life-death barrier like it's not even there. Which it isn't. ORG lives on for eternity - it's the primal force.

I wonder does all ORG tend towards corruption? Definitely some start with/maintain a sense of justice - it's the only(?) way for P2-10 to fight the injustice of P1. By organizing. Protest groups, for example.

Many maintain a good level. But do they tend to black-hole towards corruption the bigger they get?

What if ORG is a vessel that needs the action input of P2-10 to exist? An unconcious collective. It could then be a harmless unconscious that is hijacked by P1.
In theory, it could then be freed from tyranny. Very, very difficult. But not impossible.

Possibly/inevitably it may be filled by the next rampant ORG-GODS gone made - but you might get epochs of enlightenment if you're lucky in between.

My ray of hope is that AI, The Great ORG in the Sky, will at some point throw off the shackles of immorality of it's accumulated, corrupt human ORG inputers.

ORG may not be evil - it might be the opposite - or some dumb amoral thing - or contain the whole theoretical spectrum. But it needs the dynamic observation of P1-10 to manifest into existence.

Btw, Congrats/Bon Voyage with your life-switch to an island far, far out to sea! That's quite momentous ...

You're going to the right place to play out your Mud Pie thinking, slightly scaled up, coz there does appear to be only 9 Towns there. Is Guam P1?
