Memory and Associations

Potential Problem: it is seen as easy to clearly communicate, easy to be detailed and distinct.

People have different forms of Memory.

People remember things as exact, concrete definitions. Such as a brick, a specific brick that is on the floor. Definitive, concrete, and exact, like a brick used for a doorstop.

People remember things as abstract, ideas that can be applied to many different systems. There is a category, a group of bricks. Cinderblocks versus Redbrick. Brick is a building material, people might call something that is a building material that is not a brick like a small 2by4 block as a brick. Colored similar, in same area have potential for grouped into same. Please clean up the bricks left on the ground might be used as direction in generality.

Specific details matter and are sometimes factored in not always factored in correctly.

People remember things as similar not exact systems. Similes and Metaphors, associations that are not concrete might be grouped by people in concrete ways. People are not ideal judgment in. People under stress are not ideal judgment in. People sometimes use one word when they mean another. Systems like puns, metaphors, and similes, similar not exact systems, or similar far from exact systems create associations that are useful for memory, though might not be ideally representative, might create less than ideal associations at a particular time.

If I say an ObjectA is like ObjectB. If ObjectB has properties PropA, PropB, and PropC. Then people sometimes associate PropA, PropB, and PropC with ObjectA. People are less than ideal mixers of Abstract and Concrete ideas. Some people know this and have the ability to profit on this in non ideal ways. Distinct and unmistakable is important and useful, thus relevance that is clarifying is sometimes limited on purpose.

Saying things in clear, distinct ways that are representative of what one is actually trying to say has potential for complications. Things and concepts that are remembered via similar not exact systems have potential for being confused via systems like acronyms that have the potential for heard in a different way. If there is an acronym POD people have the ability to read and hear in many different ways. People that think of PO as Police Officer might easily misread. People that have been in Jail, or work in the Court system likely do not have the ability to easily remove the association from memory. Like someone with Heart Problems that has been in Jail, if they hear a siren, they might have a heart attack. The acroynm could have nothing to do with Police Officers, like Past on Demand. Yet even if one reads correctly on the concious level, there are potential for undercurrents in thought that are potentially less than ideal.

Specific, Concrete, less Abstract, Details that factor into Truth sometimes take time and retiterations to magnify. Time and Reiterations have potential for high value added for clarification. Clarification might be more costly at time than non clarifying. More details, more gorey details with imagery that sticks in the mind have potential for less than sufficient value added and are thus divested from on more than one occasion and that factors into truth and details available versus truth and details that are limited by design.

It is useful and profitable to image to be less clear with details at times, to limit relevance on details at times. Real Data matters and is divested from with good reason in certain cases. Image factors into Profit, ability to Profit, Profit that equals sustainable versus unsustainable support in society. If a company is trustworthy, people buy from that company. If a company is untrustworthy, people stop buying from that company. Promote a company doing right or a company doing wrong? Invest in a company doing right or a company doing wrong? Right and Wrong, Gray area makes people in less than ideal agreement on what is Good and Bad, Right and Wrong.

Any company could be upsold to Bad, Evil in the future. Past investments can be associated by default. Associating companies to Bad, Less value added can tie people to investments in non ideal ways and thus is divested from in advance many times. If a company is doing wrong, it is not always called out, not always versed due to multiple reasons. People are not perfect, people are not all evil out, people are not ideal communication in, any company likely can have their image reduced, and thus those that are investers, workers, purchasers of that business have potential for having their image reduced as well. Levels matter, are subject to Public Relations campaigns and money available for painting truth and trustworthiness as those companies see fit. The fitest have more potential to look clean enough in non ideal ways, at least non ideal ways for some.

Banks on Wall Street, bailed out in the past have stopped me from going bankrupt, ending up on the streets? No. Those same banks have invested highly in trying to make sure that economics and financial power includes me and my family? No. Apple has suicides in their plants, Google scrapes data that is not theirs. Yet a slap on the wrist seems to take the future forward, same as before, status quo. Profitable for some, while others are left without healthcare, die before their time is left as norm in USA. Combination is not all Justice, is not all trust the system by default amped. Throughput is more important than True Justice, Trustworthiness, Reduced Oppression seems to be default for society.

We put up with it, we rely upon these systems like banks and phones for 911, does not equal it is right, just, consequence free. Same goes for the environment, guilty in mass, does not equal zero guilt, zero accountability. Investing in a better environment is hard, solar and green, clean energy requires research, costs more at times and is thus not always sufficiently invested in. Better does not equal ideal, a little better gets claimed as vastly better, is used to devalue and dehumanize people in society.
