This is one of your best, Audio! Not because I have a full sense of what you're suggesting (because I don't) but because so many of he fragments have the ring of truth. Years ago in the US there was a phrase that has definitely gone out of style to refer to our society as sick, so "Sick Society." Now it seems as the world has shrunk down to instantaneous communications across the globe (McLuhan observation) we've reached Sick World. McLuhan observed just as the wheel is an extension of our feet, the electric signals in our media (he observed this well before the PC and the Internet) is an extension of our nervous system. If we are running on Overclock with today's media, aren't we subjecting our selves to an over flow of the electric signally, sort of a shock therapy? But this flow induces Psychosis, it doesn't fix it. Because I'm a fan of Carl Jung and one of his modern disciples, Dr. James Hollis (many insightful YouTube lectures and in print books) our subconscious minds are the source of our creativity and dreams informing our conscious selves on what it thinks we need to know. A helpful counselor told me many decades ago to try to recognize rational and irrational fears. The zombies won't eat you but desperate, starving neighbors might. Let go of your tribal sense and remake other tribal connections in a world that will soon be transformed beyond recognition due to the Ecological Overshoot Unraveling where Nature makes the corrections humanity refuses to do.
