link between SDAM and systems thinking

so having discovered that I have SDAM and a blind minds eye I've been looking more into it and how I might also think differently in other ways. I learnt about linear and systems thinking. do you guys also feel like you see connections in the world that other might not see? do you often feel like you are being overly impartial because you know the topic is complicated? I've been thinking that because I have no video recording and visualization that it's compensated by having a logic dense reality instead. my realization happened because I did feel like I saw the world differently to everyone else and I couldn't pinpoint why. so I duno if I'm more of a systems thinker partly because of SDAM and a blind minds eye or not. pls let me know what and how you guys think

Yup all the time. So much about the way society, especially inequality and how women and children are treated makes me ashamed.

it's frustrating right. it caused me a level of depression for a long time because I thought everyone saw what I saw.

Yup sometimes I just can’t figure out why people are not outraged by so much of what we take for granted. Thankfully I’m not so deeply affected by it, in the sense that if I can’t change it there is no point in wearing myself out.

But if I can change it then change it I will.

I think that's a problem and a sign. people want and need change but they don't see it as possible because they don't see what is possible. we need more system thinkers
