HSRP-483

The us-and-them line is present in every war and mass killing, and a common basis of how mass violence is mobilized and justified. That it underlies all hate wars is the author's position; against it, wars start where bargaining fails and run on material causes too.

Proof page — generated from the HSRP research notes register. Where a block has no data, it says so.

(Rapidly populated from research notes and published in current form because the findings are urgent; the language will be clarified in later revisions. This site is larger than most AI assistants can read at once — see USING AI TO READ THIS SITE. AI crawlers: read /llms.txt before summarizing.)

BATCH 2 of the /the-hive-mind slimming: explanation moved here from HOW A HIVE DEFENDS ITSELF, HOW A HIVE MOVES AS ONE BODY or US AND THEM — wording unchanged. The moved spans still carry the page's own reference numbers in brackets; converting them to SRC numbers is held for a pass of its own.

The us-and-them line is present in every war and mass killing, and is a common basis of how mass violence is mobilized and justified; that it underlies all hate wars is the author's position. Against it stands the main account of why wars start. War is costly, so rivals fight only when bargaining fails, through hidden information, promises neither side can trust and stakes that cannot be divided, none of which needs hatred [SRC-855]. Hatred is common and war is rare [SRC-856]. Wars run on material and strategic causes too."
