GLOBAL STRATEGIC HYPOTHESES.

Dear Reader,

The biological “Darwinian fitness” principle, which grasps higher biological fitness levels as measured by higher sustained rates of reproduction of a species’ biomass, must be modified, to stay coherent, when applied to an advancing phenomic/genomic species such as the Terran human species, vis-à-vis learned-phenome-less, or at best phenomically-impoverished, merely-biological species.

A given, predominating human-social livelihood-relations system can stably persist in its fitness-advancing evolution for only so long as it fosters and furthers the rate of human species social reproduction – the rate of self-reproduction of ‘human socio-mass’, i.e. the combined rate of reproduction of both human biomass and ‘human-phenomic’, human-cultural-reproductive ‘artifacts-mass’, as reflective of growing practical, and practiced, human knowledge; that is, only so long as it fosters a rising ‘Meta-Darwinian Fitness’ of the human species, as manifested in what Marx called “the growth of the social forces of production”.

One a given system of human-social livelihood-relations – that which Marx called a system of “social relations of production” – begins to enfetter, to resist, or, especially, to degrade and to reduce, that, ‘Meta-Darwinian’, human-species collective fitness, or ‘human-societal fitness’, that system thereby seals its own fate, to one of two outcomes.

Such an, increasingly unfit, human-social system will either, under the command of its ruling class, at length, and in a protracted, calamitous process, destroy its ‘Meta-Darwinian Fitness’, along with destroying itself, and taking the human species down with it: ‘‘‘the mutual ruin of the contending classes’’’ [Marx and Engels].

Or, the human species’ majority class will initiate a ‘meta-evolution’, rising beyond that failing system of human-social livelihood-relations, and congealing a new, higher system of livelihood-relations, which restores the ‘Meta-Darwinian Fitness’ of humanity by, at root, again promoting a rising rate of human-species self-reproduction, rising higher than ever achieved before.

A planetary humanity, emerging from advances in the preceding biological ‘meta-evolution’, faces a rising series of challenges to its fitness, from, e.g., on planet Earth, a series of deepening Milankovitchian Ice Ages, impending a deadly recrudescence of “Snowball Earth”, and the growing threat of a biosphere/-noosphere-destroying ‘exolithic bombardment’, by Earth-orbit-crossing debris left behind from early planetary ‘meta-evolutions’ in Earth’s Solar System.

Only an accelerating advance in humanity’s social forces of production can allow the human species to save itself, and the rest of Earth’s ‘noo-biosphere’, from cataclysmic extinction.

That is, only an accelerated advance in the Terran human species’ ‘Meta-Darwinian Fitness’ can ‘emprobabilize’ its survival, along with that of the rest of Earth’s layers of life.

This view is a product of Karl Seldon’s immanent critique of Marxian Theory, which becomes accessible once the Hitlerian-Goebbelsian “Big Lies” of Leninist, police-state state-capitalism, and its false and fraudulent claim to the “ownership” of Marxian Theory, have first been overcome.
