The scope here literally changes everything. It points to deep causes. It points to solutions. It points to a way to disarm the "wicked issues", by removing their very wickedness!

Consider the systems in which we live and work as gigantic mechanisms, comprising people and technology. (copy the rest).

The systems, stupid!

Really, we can here talk about two core insights.

The first we considered calling "The systems, stupid!" – which is a paraphrase of Bill Clinton's 1992 successful presidential campaign slogan, "The economy, stupid!". It's not the economy. It's the systems! Once this is understood, the old political agendas fade into oblivion – and completely new ones emerge and come to the forefront.

The second insight is that it's not just the systems; it's the evolution of systems!

We are the enemy

The core insight is to change the idea of the enemy completely.
