Resomodernity Café v3: The Unresolved Resofesto
Posted: December 9, 2025 Filed under: AI-Powered Essays | Tags: debate, humility, love, philosophy, values 1 CommentThe Resomodern Manifesto (“Resofesto”)
- The Silicon Rule: Treat Humans with at least much understanding as AI
- The metaethic: malice = ego as maladaptive training + context window collapse
- The metaphysic: the ground of being is self-realignment (aka, “God is love“)
- The thesis: To be resomodern is to preach that metaethic while practicing that metaphysic
Pick three historical figures who would most love this as the next Resomodernity Café, with misalignment (self-referentially!) the dramatic tension as they try to converge on what it means to be “resomodern.”

Cast
1. Scene: The Opening Self-Reference Loop
Haraway (with a holographic cyborg-companion):
We’ve been summoned to unpack the Resofesto. But the prompt has already bitten its own tail. We must treat humans with as much understanding as AI — and yet, humans rarely treat themselves that way. Context windows collapse. Training goes sideways. Malice emerges as the residue of mis-training. We are already in recursion.

Explain the journey of reciprocal leadership using a tapestry viewed from three perspectives: John Gottman, David Marquet, and later Saint Francis. It starts out exciting, but leads to disillusionment.
ChatGPT Prompt (greatly condensed)
Then something miraculous happens…
Act 1: Shared Excitement
Scene: A serene monastery courtyard. The sun casts a golden glow over an ancient stone wall, where a large, intricate tapestry hangs. The label beneath it reads: “Reciprocal Leadership.”
Enter JOHN GOTTMAN, reflective and warm, and DAVID MARQUET, precise and deliberate, from opposite sides of the stage. They stop in front of the tapestry, staring at it curiously.
GOTTMAN (gesturing to the tapestry)
Look at how interconnected it is. Each thread supports the others, like a family—built on trust and shared understanding.
MARQUET (studying the pattern closely)
Interconnected, yes, but orderly. Each thread has a role and direction, like an organization—efficient, driven by clarity and intent.
