[United States / Coastal Communities] - The Property Self Stays in a House Falling Into the Ocean to Defend a Phantom of Permanence
Event Baseline: Waterfront homes along U.S. coastlines are collapsing into the ocean. FEMA has provided no alternative, and many homes remain occupied until the moment of collapse.
The owner identifies with a structure on moving earth. Thought says this is mine, this is permanent. The ocean is not negotiating. The self refuses to move because moving means the death of a mental image. This is the illusion of separate survival.
The house is the body of the self. Let it fall rather than admit the map was wrong. The state cannot help because it shares the same disease. It funds the fantasy until the collapse. The only repair is to see that the self is not the house, not the land, not the boundary.
