I was trying to convey the Litany of Gendlin as the principle the story was based on. The lesson would be “Don’t deny or ignore facts, even if there’s lots of money in it for you, because the facts are still facts whether you like it or not.” I think situations like climate change, peak oil, over-exploitation of aquifers and letting the FIRE sector run rampant over the real economy count as real-world examples.
