I think I am going to start calling it that. As I have commented, the amygdala seems to involve shame as well as running and fighting. Where traumatic experience is concerned, all three are present more or less continually, even if the specific face presented varies.
And if you consider that most people, if some bad thing is done to them, tend to emotionally want to reverse it in a way by doing it to someone else, then the thirst for power, in response to traumatic experience, becomes easily explicable.
We humans tend to be clumsy. We are continually breaking one another, and then paying the consequences. We put shit in our own soup. It may be that someone else eats it, but what we eat was made by someone like us. It all extends far back into the past. It’s not always equally bad–most things exist in waves–but it is a recurring and continual theme.
