The platform, aka El Hoyo

It is about a futuristic prison, where food is distributed to inmates in a vertical prison. They have elected to be there, on promise of reward on release. They are fed on a vertical table, the descends, level by level.

IMO, it is really about humanity and the choice between self service and a greater good.

It is a great movie. The sequel… Eh.

Less curious about cluster b personality disorders, specifically, and more interested in the practical understanding that (in this case) sometimes, the reason behind someone not valuing another is really about them trying to protect themselves.

The connection between contempt, grandiosity, and shame; it makes sense intuitively, but it is interesting to spell it out that way.

What about other big emotions, how many others are really outputs of another?

Is their a field of study that focuses solely on the behavior, and the root cause, in the way your third and forth paragraphs does? Or, like, a flowchart of emotions and root causes? That was an interesting way to dissect why people might behave in that way.

Which ones are you in? I like personal finance and am in several on Reddit, but none here.
