Self-organization: how complex systems can sponteanously create... order! (3/5)

Article 3 - Complexity Series


We were taught to see the world as a system that needs to be engineered, managed, controlled. Where order comes from the top, and chaos comes from below.

But the truth is... complexity does not obey "control".

It emerges and self organizes.

💡
In complexity theory, self-organization describes how coherent patterns, structures, or behaviors emerge within a system, without central command.

No leader. No architect. No master plan.
And yet… order forms.

And understanding this is starting to see the world for what it really is.

And yes, it is deeply uncomfortable because as the name of the theory says... it's COMPLEX.

Complexity is basically unbearable for all narrow minds.

Like conspirationnists.
Like indoctrinated individuals.

To all the conspirationnists out there... I know you LOVE to believe that there's a master plan, a group of people (let's name them: THE JEEEWS BOOOOOH), a secret architect controlling the world... you CONNECTED THE DOTS, to reveal to the secret plan to your fellow "awaken" friends...

But once you understand complexity, your narrative collapses.

That easy. I know a thing or two about disinformation, conspiracies and how you build them, and there's nothing I hate more than intellectual laziness.

That being said, let's move on.
