0164 In chapter twelve, Deely suggests that the new definition of the human being (as a semiotic animal) is beyond patriarchy and feminism.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, it is beyond social constructivism, critical theory and social justice, as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See Looking at Gad Saad’s Book (2020) “Parasitic Minds” <\/em>in Razie Mah’s blog for April 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, this examination of Deely’s book<\/em> suggests that Deely’s formulation<\/em> accounts for the notions of patriarchy and feminism<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because “patriarchy” and “feminism” participate in the objective world of an ideological constellation, <\/em>called Big Government (il)Liberalism<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0165 A student recently complained to me, “Every feminist I meet sees only what she wants to see.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, the opposite is the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As far as he is concerned, a feminist only sees what she does not want to see<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0166 Consider the perspective level of feminist indoctrination.  The category-based nested form says (more or less), “The normal context of social justice3c<\/sub> brings the disciplinary language of feminism2c<\/sub>, which virtually contextualizes the analysis of critical theory2b<\/sub> and the results of social constructivism2a<\/sub>, into relation with the potential of ‘equity’1c<\/sub>“.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

0167 The disciplinary language of feminism2c<\/sub> is the sign-object of an exemplar sign<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It2c<\/sub> is also the sign-vehicle for an interventional sign<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0168 Here is a picture of that interventional sign<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Figure 68<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This interventional sign shows that the student’s intuition<\/em> is on target, but, as noted, the target is the opposite of what the student’s intuition says<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sign-object of the interventional sign<\/em> is empty2a<\/sub>, because the feminist is waiting, like a spider with its web, for someone<\/em> to volunteer to serve as the content-level actuality2a<\/sub> that her normal context3a<\/sub> and potential1a<\/sub> are waiting for<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her interventional sign-vehicle<\/em> cannot be sensed by the approaching male college student. <\/em>That does not mean it2c<\/sub> is not there.  It is just not part of the objective world of the naive male college student<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0169 Well, the male also has a perspective-level nested form, which is not so explicitly honed, but is more implicitly abstracted.  The normal context of college3c<\/sub> brings the actuality of getting a degree and of networking2c<\/sub> into relation with the potential of ‘getting along and getting ahead’1c<\/sub>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consequently, his interventional sign is more like an invitation for interaction, like a raven landing nearby in hopes that someone will toss it a treat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Figure 69<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

0170 As soon as the male student says hello, the feminist identifies him as a bigot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Figure 70<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

She then gives him a clue as about her formal approach and final intentions<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does he hear?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Figure 71<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

0171 Talk about objective worlds in collision!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The indoctrinated person who is trained in explicit abstractions<\/em> will always win in a spontaneous encounter with a person guided by implicit abstractions<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, the male student reflects about his encounter, leading him to come up with his explicit abstraction, that the feminist sees what she wants to see<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The irony is that she does not want to meet a bigot,<\/em> she wants to meet someone who satisfies her academically trained expectations<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
