| Ruyle uses the phrase [[Mode of Exploitation]] to refer to The System. Ruyle breaks the mode of exploitation down into three interrelated systems, Exploitative Techniques, Mechanism of Force, and Ideological Institutions. Each of these systems work together to enable and propagate the exploitation fo the masses. His schema is a useful wayt to conceptualize the system.

| The System encourages compliance and violence: Zimbardo, of Stanford Prison Experiment fame, speaks of a part of the System that aims at encouraging people towards compliance and violence. "However, I would have missed the big picture, the bigger power for creating evil out of good—that of the System, the complex of powerful forces that create the Situation."<ref>Zimbardo, Philip. The Lucifer Effect: Understanding How Good People Turn Evil. New York: Random House, 2007.</ref> His book details the forces that cause good people to do bad things.

| Zimbardo notes, in the case of Nazis and their mass murder, that getting people to do evil things involves casting the opponent as an evil enemy, and then giving official "permission" to carry out sadistic acts. <ref>Zimbardo, Philip. The Lucifer Effect: Understanding How Good People Turn Evil. New York: Random House, 2007.</ref>. The tools for labelling others as evil enemies, and the ideological underpinning that facilitates permission, can be found in the [[Old Energy Creation Template]]

| The current, [[Stage Five]] system is a Capitalist [[Regime of Accumulation]]. <ref>Sosteric. Rocket Scientists’ Guide to Money and the Economy: Accumulation and Debt. St Albert, Alberta: Lightning Path Press., 2016.</ref>. In order for the planet to move on to [[Stage Seven]], the [[Regime of Accumulation]] must be replaced with a [[Regime of Distribution]] that fairly and sustainably distributes the planet's bounty.
