The AnkiDroid Collection (Part 47) – Deracinate, 5th Generation Warfare & Amygdala

Ankidroid additions related to Science, History and Philosophy. More information about Anki can be found in this article.

Deracinate (vb)

I heard Douglas Murray mention this term in a recent podcast and my Ankdroid came a callin’.

Deracinate is to remove or separate from a native environment or to remove the ethnic characteristics or influences from.

5th Generation Warfare

I mentioned 5th Generation Warfare in the post: ‘The Future of War Video’ and Political Grace (The Art of Disagreeing Well).

5th Generation Warfare is conducted through non kinetic military action such as social engineering, misinformation, cyber-attacks and Artificial Intelligence.

Amygdala

It’s clear that we have problems. In order to get ourselves cognitively organised and rallied around them we have to have a way of articulating them without it tripping all of our amygdala land mines‘ – Narrative, Metaphor and Hyper-Novelty.

The amygdala is one of two almond-shaped clusters of nuclei located deep and medially within the temporal lobes of the brain’s cerebrum. Shown to perform a primary role in the processing of memory, decision making, and emotional responses (including fear, anxiety, and aggression), the amygdalae are considered part of the limbic system.
