In the latest ET Board Meeting, Aziz is asking how to bring order within chaos:

So, let's explore that.
First we have to ask: What is chaos?
To most people, chaos essentially is a force that is acting detrimental to order, whereas order is a subjective term. This means that chaos can be everything that goes against your imaginaton of what should or shouldn't be.
The solution to this subjective definition of chaos is to define it objectively. But is that even possible?
I wrestled with this question a long time and was unable to define chaos objectively. Then I realized: That's the point! In nature, chaos doesn't exist as a "natural force", because in nature, everything is ordered, based on the laws of logic. But this doesn't mean that there can't be chaos. It means: Chaos is the natural consequence of a being that's acting in opposition to natural law.
For example, walking over the edge of a cliff as if you are not bound to the law of gravity, while in reality you haven't met the requirements to overcome gravity, will result in you falling down. This consequence can be deemed chaotic, as long as you are expecting to not fall.
See, chaos can be reduced to a simple rule: It happens when expectation and reality don't match.
When you are walking over the edge of a cliff while being fully aware that you will fall, it isn't considered a chaotic consequence. With this understanding, we learn that there is a way to overcome chaos: Knowledge.
When you know how nature works, you won't expect the wrong things anymore. And this even applies to the social sciences. If you have psychological knowledge about how individuals and societies work, you can direct where the society is going – just like the ant queen that knows how to produce the pheromones.
The bad side uses the knowledge of propaganda and psychological manipulation to control societies.
The good side uses the knowledge of truth – not to control societies, but to stabilize them.
And this shows us the difference between those two sides: The bad side very strongly believes that truth doesn't stabilize. They actually believe that truth is a destabilizing force, because their worldview is built upon lies and control.
But the simple truth is: You don't need control to stabilize anything AS LONG AS you know how it works.
For example, imagine you build a motor that is burning fossile fuel. You have to control the inflow of the fuel to prevent an explosion. But the explosion doesn't happen because of chaos – it happens because you assume that you need to burn fuel in order to make the motor run. You just don't know enough about energy yet. This lack of knowledge must be compensated with control.
Aziz asked the right question: How can we be strong enough to defend ourselves, while at the same time preserve individual freedom?
So we must ask: Do we actually know what will make an individual defend society?
Again, the bad side just forces the individual with violence and manipulation to fight for society. Because they lack knowledge. They don't know how to make individuals want to fight every battle the authority wants them to fight. Individuals tend to question whether it's right to attack. They might even think that the other side isn't the enemy.
On the good side, individuals defend society voluntarily. Why? Because they know they are on the good side. How do they know? Well, it's certainly not because authority tells them who the enemy is, because this isn't knowledge.
On the good side, individuals know how to distinguish between good and evil based on objective knowledge about what a right is. No authority needed. If someone attacks the freedom of the individual, it's also an attack against the society. Because the purpose of society is to protect the freedom of the individual. And if the society attacks the individual's freedom, the individual knows that the society is the enemy.
And this is where the actual problem comes in: The fear of having to fight society.
