implications of togetherness

Tauri care about togetherness and ONLY togetherness. What does this look like on large scales? Well for one thing, they don't care about anything others care about, except that others resist and successfully beat them so they're forced to care. Tauri invented lobotomy and thought it was a great idea. The problem is so very many people resisted this marvelous invention of theirs.

So onto the next way of creating togetherness, all they care about. If effective mind control were possible, you can bet your ass they would use it. In fact, in their science fiction novels, it's only 000 (baseline) and 100 (super-happy) that use brainwashing. The 000 uses pinpoint brainwashing to destroy personalities, anyone who looks like they might be hierarchizing society instead of leveling it flat. And the 100 simply uses mass mind control to bring everyone TOGETHER.

Note that when I say they USE mind control, I mean they use it on other types. Not that they write themselves as victims of it as tends to happen in other types' science fiction novels. Mind control is not that common in high level science fiction and so it's entirely possible that Tauri are the worst.

creating problems bloodthirsty fighters loathing the solver of problems Victory or defeat, life or death, these things mean nothing to them. All they care about is that everyone do the same thing together. puritanism slamming society from one end to another randomly and arbitrarily
