question:  The less you share...
context: A key fact is that a superabundance of community respect and social capital are being accumulated by those who share. A neural network exists to share activity and information, and I believe this model of the brain should inspire ideas and decisions about human networks. Thus, our brain supports sharing in its very system-nature. If your internal cognitive system encourages sharing, you can engineer a feedback loop of happiness, which will help you generate even more ideas in return. However, daily decisions for most adults are quite low in creative productivity, if only because they’ve switched off their sharing paths. People generally like to share what they create, but in a culture that tells them to be protective of their ideas, people start to believe in the danger of sharing. Sharism will be kept in her mind as a memory and an instinct. But since the brain, and society, is a connected system, the accumulation of these micro-attitudes, from neuron to neuron and person to person, can result in observable behavior. It is easy to tell if a person, a group, a company, a nation is oriented toward Sharism or not. For those who are not, what they defend as “cultural goods” and “intellectual property” are just excuses for the status quo of keeping a community closed. Much of their “culture” will be protected, but the net result is the direct loss of many other precious ideas, and the subsequent loss of all the potential gains of sharing. This lost knowledge is a black hole in our life, which may start to swallow other values as well. Non-sharing culture misleads us with its absolute separation of Private and Public space. This creates a gap in the spectrum of knowledge. However, the paradox is: The less you share, the less power you have. Human history is always so: something important was happening, but the rest of the world hadn’t yet realized it. The small-scale granularity of the content can fill discrete gaps in experience and thus record a new human history.
output:  ...the less power you have.
options:  ...the more privacy you have.  ...the more your intellectual property is protected.  ...the less power you have.  ...the less your cultural goods will be appropriated.
