Bringing Loving Kindness into our socioeconomic interactions requires a deep transformation of the systemic means by which we coordinate socially at scale. If those systems are not inherently imbued with Loving Kindness at their core, how can they allow us to coordinate with Loving Kindness? Systems and standards designed for Control are simple (and relatively easy), and because of the simplicity of systems having such entrenched Control dynamics, in a sense, they become inherently more efficient and effective as they scale.
On the other hand, while it may be a simple undertaking to learn, teach, and master Loving Kindness within ourselves, and in 1-to-1 relationships, it is definitely not easy. And there are many layers of complexity and complications that begin to happen as we attempt to scale Loving Kindness. More people means exponentially more interactions. Exponentially more interactions seems to require us to have digital tools– at least, at this stage in our evolution as a species. And, it is possible that digital technology is only a temporary stepping stone to realizing the technology already encoded in our DNA. Maybe something like organizing into tribes and federations of tribes is actually a fundamental pattern of scaling Loving Kindness that is already fully within us, and we just forgot.
