 **Global Cult of Materialism (GCM)**. The GCM ideology views the collection of sovereign states as the new Gods, large corporations as the Demigods, and Social Power elites as the Clergy (along with their sycophants, parasites, and peers).
 As in most cults, “non-believers” are treated like heretics (or lunatics), rather than legitimate dissenters. Humans are generally treated like objects (fungible goods, resources, tools, etc.), not autonomous subjects.
-Since we can’t manage what we don’t measure, an understanding of the Optopian Strategy (Human Optimization) is essential for identifying the appropriate metrics and actions necessary to achieve the best outcomes. Optimization of a zero-sum game generally depends upon scientific thinking in order to realize and implement the best solutions. Without the benefit of a scientific strategy, as is available in this Optopian Wiki, we will most likely continue to recycle obsolete philosophical ideologies.

 This Wiki is divided into specific sections for ease of reference but all of them are interdependent, and
 collectively they constitute an integrated reference framework for the future.\\
