The way I use win-win, is that in a certain transaction, both parties feel as if they have gained in the trade. By pulling this larger, and reflecting it on the whole, you are entering the area of judgement. It really depends on what you consider good for the "whole". One could say than most transactions related to business are never win-win, since most of the time, the evironment looses.

If you cut down a tree to make paper, to the tree and the surrounding environment, it doesn't matter what you print on there, if it's fear based or love based. Still for the whole it might be better to kill that tree, print something on there that will raise awareness and the whole might be better off. Or it might not. Who's to say?

Imo the darkworker can still use fear based techniques, but in order to be able to continue using those techniques, he can make individual transactions based on win-win (or make it seem as if they are). And so win-win in that context is not related to the larger body gaining (winning).
