0321 Welcome to the matrix.

Welcome to a simulated reality constituted by agents that work the system (Q) and minions that believe in the system (R).

The system is always changing, yet always the same, because it lives by cancellation of their opposition.  The system replaces a suspect person’s identity_3b with a stereotype_2am that opposes the adopted agenda_1a.  The stereotype-tagged guilty one_2af deserves social cancellation_1a (the gun_1a of critical theory).

0322 Jones tells the story of a person who… well… had an old-style American identity.

In the big noumenon, identity_3b virtually situates structure_3a.

In the big noumenon of the nemesis of the American Identity (Q), big(il)lib expertise works the system_3b and virtually situates manufacturing influence_3a.

In the big noumenon of those self-identifying within the mirror of nemesis (R), big(il)lib expertise believes in the system_3b and virtually situates making an impact_3a.

0323 For example, self-regarding racial theorists_2bm (Q) compose literature_2bf that isolates stereotypes_2af that – through an unspoken contiguity called “hidden grammar” – substantiate attitudes_2af within the normal context of making influence_3a and the potential of  ‘selling a narrative (that veils the guilt of interventionalists on the perspective level)’_1a.

0324 Oh, did I say “narrative”?

I meant to say, “product”.

0325 For example, educational committees_2bm (R) distill what needs to be enforced_2bf from the fictions of critical theory_2bf.  These experts_3b advocate policies_2b in light of what they perceive are political opportunities_1b.  In this way, the propaganda_1b underlying the literature_2bf of higher-level authorities_2bm manifests as stereotypes_2af that are regarded as relevant_2bf in the normal context of making an impact_3a operating on the potential of ‘the adopted agenda’_1a.

0326 Allow me to compare critical theory (Q) and the mirroring identity of the big(il)lib believer (R).

Here is a comparison that starts with the situation-level normal context.

0327 On the side of nemesis (Q), the normal context of big(il)lib expertise_3b has the intellectual freedom to “work” the system.  Unrestrained intellectual liberty_3b subverts the (old) targeted system (say, the institutional structures_3a of the American Identity of the 1900s), using apparently clever tactics (typical of the manipulation of words in propaganda_1b).

On the side of the mirroring identity (R), the normal context of big(il)lib expertise_3b internalizes the knowledge created by cutting-edge critical theorists_3b.  Even though both nemesis and mirror are regarded as experts, there is a matter-of-fact distinction.  For example, when a language professor teaches a course informed by the critical theories of Foucault_3b, she contextualizes the French theorist’s proclamations as if they are legal decrees_2bm, carrying the weight of authority_2bm. The students know that the professor will use the opportunities afforded by classwork_1b to enforce_2bf that authority_2bm.

0328 The comparison continues in the following figure.

0329 Here is a reminder.  “Big(il)lib” is short for big government (il)liberalism.  The bigger the government gets, the more illiberal the self-declared “liberal” will act.

0330 Potential on the situation level_1b situates the entire content-level nested form, particularly the actuality_2a.

0331 On the nemesis side (Q), the technical language of big(il)lib reason_1b yields propaganda_1b which situates the stereotypes_2am that guide our attitudes_2af by way of a hidden grammar.  [Hidden grammar] is the contiguity between the matter of stereotypes_2am and the form of our attitudes_2af.

On the side of the mirroring identity (R), the action-oriented language of political opportunity_1b yields advocacy (calls to action)_1b that situate stereotypes as matter_2am and proclaims the importance of the attitudes that stereotypes call for_2af.

0332 The comparison is completed in the following figure.

0333 On the nemesis side (Q), making influence_3a is situated by the potential of propaganda_1b.

On the mirror side (R), making an impact_3a is situated by the potential of political opportunity_1b.

Anyone tagged with one of the old American identities is outside this system.  Indeed, the two sides function to sap the resources of those outside their fiction.

0334 On the nemesis side (Q), liberated theorists_3b write the theoretical thought-pieces_2bf that govern the stereotypes_2am that “speak to” our attitudes_2af.

On the mirror side (R), educated believers_3b derive the laws inherent in those thought pieces_2bf in order to enforce_2bf the realness (not fictionality) of the stereotypes_2am, thereby making them palpably real_2af or “relevant_2af“.

Is that not what good fiction is supposed to do?

0335 Finally, both the nemesis of American Identity and those who mirror the nemesis manifest the potential of having no guilt_1a, just like the Satan, at the opening of John Milton’s Paradise Lost.  And, for Americans, that potential is precisely what carrying a gun aims to mitigate.

0336 The student should read the epilogue.
