A very sweeping and far-ranging post, thank you Taraz. As a psychologist I couldn't agree more that changing our narrative is one of the more important things we can do. Your post brought to mind a book I carried around India when I went there seeking my own change, the book was by two Palo Alto psychologist, a slim book simply entitled Change.
I especially liked your connecting these issues to society and species. I think sites like steemit also provide leverage for even greater change.

Thanks and welcome. As not a psychologist it is nice to have you here and your input will be appreciated by many I am sure. You will likely argue with me at times ;) as I am more of an observational thinker without foundation other than my own experiences.
Yes, I think Steemit and similar have the potential for a lot of discussions to take place that may not be possible in other areas as for the most part, the introduction of potential reward tempers the trolling and extremes of emotion. The feeling permanency likely also plays a hand.
I always have more stuff coming but, I have a lot behind too if you ever get bored.
