*Ecopsychology, Activism, & the Prenatal Roots of Humanicide*

by Michael Adzema

which is

a comprehensive look at into the deepest psychological reaches of humans.

THREAD… wp.me/p1n96g-3FZ #psychology #Earth #prenatal #climate

PA 21/125

The book seeks to explain how, with humans on the cusp of the end of all life on this planet, including their own, humans could look away.

In doing so, it presents a major new theory in psychology, the *Prenatal Matrix of Evil* or the PMEs.

… drive.google.com/file/d/1gewWZG…

PA 21/126

The *Prenatal Matrix of Human Evil* theory traces our drive to annihilation to the unique human experiences prior to birth, occurring in the 3rd trimester, which arise of the fact that in our evolution humans became bipedal.

Bipedalism affected human psychology in that the new pelvic structure changed how babies would experience birth & gestation.
