How Time-Blindness Causes Moral Collapse uncomfortable but real. Step 1: Time Is Flattened Early uncertainty and late certainty are treated equally. Step 2: Risk Is Punished People learn that being early is dangerous. Step 3: Silence Becomes Rational Only speak once outcomes are obvious. Step 4: Responsibility Evaporates Everyone claims “we all thought this.” Step 5: History Is Rewritten Bad decisions appear inevitable. No one is accountable. Thats how: Institutions repeat failures War decisions lose moral ownership Financial crises recur Cultural errors metastasize Time-blind systems don’t just fail epistemically. They train moral cowardice.
