- diagnosis: Making capital more abstract culminates in money as God: a symbol that is both nothing and everything and can consume an entire life. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-b5fthagng8c@transcript:v1#seg-0003`, `video:predictive-history-b5fthagng8c@transcript:v1#seg-0004`

- definition: Symbols in Ice Age art express abstractions such as energy, life force, cycle, repetition, and messages from the spirit world. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-lvhsg5qtds8@transcript:v1#seg-0023`, `video:predictive-history-lvhsg5qtds8@transcript:v1#seg-0024`
- definition: Abstraction means removal from reality; civilizational maturity increases abstraction, individualism, atomization, and dependence on money. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-k-l9jbgo74@transcript:v1#seg-0021`, `video:predictive-history-k-l9jbgo74@transcript:v1#seg-0022`

- diagnosis: Jiang models the village-to-city transition as an abstraction shift: village life is emotionally embedded and purposeful, while city life is regulated by money and clocks.

- model: The city and later the internet raise abstraction: people become curious and stimulated but lose direct knowledge of where things come from and what rules govern action. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0021`, `video:predictive-history-cylkqpsffry@transcript:v1#seg-0022`
