Abstract

This article proposes a novel analogy between the escalating polarization which occurs between rational agents, and the emergence of spacetime in quantum decoherence. The former occurs within a framework of reinforcement loops of recursive information exchange between agents, and translates through scales (local, regional, national and international) of polarization. The latter occurs on a neurological scale within the split consciousness of the single observer, and thus a particle evolution becomes determined, as the particle becomes entangled with the polarized state of the observer and the observer's local environment. THE PREMISE OF THIS ANALOGY IS MATHEMATICALLY SUPPORTED. A modified Stern Gerlach experimental is proposed as a proof. A radical concept of gravity is a corollary.
