Nutrients | Private Interests and the Start of Fluoride-Supplemented High-Carbohydrate Nutritional Guidelines
Internal documents show that private interests motivated the events which led these expert panels to engage in pivotal scientific reversals. These private interests biased scientific processes and these reversals occurred largely in an absence of supporting evidence. It is concluded that private interests played a significant role in the start of public health endorsements of fluoride-supplemented high-carbohydrate nutritional guidelines.

We once refused to talk about cancer.
We now “politely” ignore mental changes with age.
If you have worked in social services with older people, this study confirms what you have always seen. And you can see cognitive changes with older family and friends.
You will see a lot of writing about prevention and treatment. Those have good use. But leave out too many people.
We need accommodation. We have lots of aging people with mental changes. Lots of them. We need better lives for them.
We live in a culture that has recently come to strongly favor recalling details and procedures.
The “cognitive load” of daily activities, both essential and pleasing, has increased greatly in a generation.
To use a cliche, where once snapshots would have arrived in the mail, it was a Kodak ad, we now expect grandma to get online and use social media to see photos of the grandchildren.
Don’t dismiss the cliche. Feeling connected is essential, and becomes much harder in our culture that isolates the older.
Ordering food or groceries for delivery now requires using the app or website.
Etc
So far, the always inadequate response has sent underpaid and understaffed humans to help humans use a human built system the aging humans cannot use well.
Dumb. We use inadequate staffing to ameliorate the problems of automation. Dumb.

Roller Coaster
Put people in a dark room and show us the view from a moving roller coaster and we will bob and weave even though we have gone nowhere and done nothing.
Spend the evening watching the view, and you will get tired. And so many people are in the dark watching screens showing persuasive lies of mimesis.
Fatigue is induced. It is a feature not a bug.
We cannot turn it off. We cannot make it go away. And we cannot escape. It is the water we live in. It is our ecology. It is the culture that takes over the world. It is what we must work within; we have no choice.
Ok,
How do we work in it?
Kinko’s was once an important tool.
No message, no number of messages, can do in this maelstrom of messages what I once did with Kinko’s. And all the media are algorithms always favoring the most exciting, and tiring, that gets the most views.
The house always gets its percentage. To win in the game, to get your many views, means you lose as you feed the machine and fatigue your audience.
“A strange game. The only winning move is not to play.”
The internet is not a better copy machine.
There is not a better message when you are pouring it into water.
I teach people ways of moving. I teach ways to reshape how they feel themselves move. How they come to feel themselves then reshapes how they move all the time. This is not information. It is not done with words.
How we get through too much information is not more information, even if we think our more is better information.
We need to teach people to be blind and deaf. And our tools to teach that are words and images and sounds.
The koan is the arm pointing at the moon; look at the moon not the arm.
The technique is not the content of expression but in the manner. Stop informing. Teach fish to lose their eyes.
