Translating the Master's Random and Insane Worldview into "Logic" & "Reason" for the Rest of Us
(Soon to be Replaced by AI)
from Google AI:
In Jacques Lacan's framework of social bonds, the University Discourse represents the hegemony of objective knowledge and expert systemization as a tool for institutional mastery. Developed in his 1969–1970 Seminar XVII, The Other Side of Psychoanalysis, it is one of the Four Discourses (alongside Master, Hysteric, and Analyst) used to map how language structures power, authority, and human relationships.

//the University Discourse represents the hegemony of objective knowledge
What a bs...
and, where's that "hegemony"???
Atheism.
The secularization of religious belief. The "psychologizing" of belief. As Nietzsche said. G_d is dead!
Religion became psychology. A new "mythology" was born.
The University became the priesthood. The experts. The subjects supposed to know. They know (or figure out) the "right-approved" (best) way to do things. Not because G_d said so. But because the 'Master' ordered it so. Why do we hate the Commies? The Capitalist Discourse hates communism. And the Capitalists (via Deep State) order the Master Discourse in our Overton-Window of public opinion hysterical discourse dominated "democracy" of equals (no single master)
Private property. Men. Hording (not herding) animals. Accumulation of Wealth/ Property. That's the "right" way. Commies are "herd" animals. We learn/ teach Marxism in the Universities so that we can defeat Communism. We learn/ Teach Area Studies, so that we can defeat our enemies and appropriate their wealth/ resources and add their property to ours.
...the Capitalist Discourse.
Whatever.
That is what YOUR "those who know better" tell you to believe.
Yawn.
While initiating "reform" of re-tooling USA into state capitalism bureaucrates ruling model. ;-p
//Commies are "herd" animals
...not, anymore.
Communism building pulled peasants from villages, where they was "herded"
And... throved em into big cities. Where they was modernized. To a common Cap standard.
Yawn.
Say the 1%-3% of the population that controls 80+ percent of global wealth. An ever increasing divide between the capitalist class and ALL the rest.
The interest of the capital class is, and always has been, to keep the working class subservient to them. Easier to exploit them for the purpose of maximum extraction of profit off their labor.
Hording the surplus in Plato's "Republic", not sharing in the necessities. The Commie Guardians "Republic" always degenerates. Luxury (surplus) creates Injustice (from desire to control the surplus). La Part Maudite.
Perhaps it's time for a culling of surplus elites. ;)
Curtis Yarvin and many silicon valley tech moguls advocate for a return to Monarchy... or corporate monarchies (just a bureacracy federating instead of centralizing ala Byzantium's complexity reduction solution). All hail the new technofeudal model! (as Byzantium gave birth to economic feudalism as a form when Tome collapsed).
China's Communist "Guardians" are breaking down from internal corruption (as Plato predicted). Luxury is incompatible Justice. How long can Xi hold on?
The evolutionary cycle of human society (per Plato's "Republic") continues...
Yawn.
BS.

Then why there's no more slaves? And even peasant sergs, burgeousy fought in revolutions to "free" em?
Why most prosperous capitalists -- giving shares to their workers and trying to teach em to be more and more pro-active???
What are "ideal worker" for you???
One doing manual labour from 8 to 17? And then mindlessly burping consuming beer?
Or... one that growing in smarts and wisdom? Making own decisions? Having lots if free time, cause -- automatisation and robotics doing all dull work?
If first example is your choice -- of course capitalists are enemies to you. ;-p
Because liberal socialist society in tr west was able.to make inroads into and reducing inequalities in society. Much to the chagrin of the capitalist class of oppressors and wealth their wealth extraction and exploitation of the productive working class.
So, the capital class came up with their austerity bullshit to blame the working class for every imaginable economic ill. But the truth of it is austerity serves only to extract capital from the working class and drive it to the capital class through regressive taxation and other nefarious means.
All wealth is created by the production working class. The capital class works diligently to suppress wages, keeping them stagnant, so as to extract a greater share of the working class's surplus labor value for themselves.
Tus the great and ever growing income divide between capital and labor classes.
Capitalist are ignorant greedy individuals concerned only with their own wealth and welfare. Without any concern for the planet's or societal welfare. For the most part anyway. Think Musk and trump for starters. As well as many in the political class who ignorantly support and fuel the capital class through their ignorant selfish agenda and laws.
//Capitalist are ignorant greedy individuals concerned only with their own wealth and welfare
Yeah
And ship captains are stupid cretins concerned only with correct guidence and safety of their ships.
What a bloody bustards, #$^@&!!!
//Without any concern for the planet's or societal welfare
Really???
And who'd allow em that?
Politicians?
State bereaucrats???
//As well as many in the political class who ignorantly support and fuel the capital class through their ignorant selfish agenda and laws.
And who are that saints, who have no selfish agenda?
Workers and peasants??? %^)))
Bu-ga-gah!
//Because liberal socialist society in tr west was able.to make inroads into and reducing inequalities in society
BullShit AKA BS.
That did mr Colt and mr Ford
Through technologies.
//All wealth is created by the production working class
And where I can sample that product? ;-p
//The capital class works diligently to suppress wages, keeping them stagnant, so as to extract a greater share of the working class's surplus labor value for themselves.
And where that nasty capitalists take that money??? they pay as salary?
Isn't that income from products made by that workers ONLY?
So, that creates ABSOLUTE limit on salary any capitalist can propose to his workers -- share with em whole income, isn't it?
But wait. If he'd share all gross income with workers -- what a generous capitalist -- where he'd take money for next cycle of production??? new raw materials, new tools to replace worn out, electricity and fuel. and etc, etc, etc.
So, such "most generous capitalist", bound to pay "most fair salaries"... will be forced to say to workers to go seek for a new employer...
//Tus the great and ever growing income divide between capital and labor classes.
Yeah.
And workers of today live even more miserable life than slaves of Rome.
Cannot buy new nifty gadgets. Drive a car. Build own hause with modern goodies like electricity and water and canalisation in it.
That all that nasty capitalist hoarded to themself only. %^)))))()
Thanks for confirming your reified delusions and conditioned ignorance. The capital class and their favor sucking moron politicians have successfully brainwashed you!
You ever watch Rollerball? SF is right up you alley. Technofeudalism will make people yearn for a corporate Rollerball future.
Say it, idiot. Yawn.
WHERE capitalists recieve MONEY (not enigmatic and uncalculable "surplus") to pay salaries? ;-)
Isn't the answer is -- from many places, from buyers of his goods, from that same workers?
And isn't YOU WANT MONEY too, and not some "surolus"? %^P
Your outbursts like "capital class works diligently to suppress wages, keeping them stagnant" are more than eloquent of it.
But, when I lead you to a simple truth -- that capitalist can give as salary ONLY THAT MONEY he recieved with selling what that workers produced. You... turning into venim spitting cimmie zealot)))))
Which is telling. Revealing the truth. That you completely got what I gave written here.
But, as z#alot, cannot allow to yourself to stomatch that. %^P
As that would ruin your zeal.)))()((
Tsk-tsk-tsk.
I have had explained it to you. Many times.
Not capitalism. Capitalism is force of Progress.
But Traditional Culture, which OPPOSINF him.
Like just here -- capitalusm created space of freedim (to the edge of anarchy) here -- Internet.
What did Traditional Culture (when most people came in) -- started imposing censure and all kinds of rules and limitations. As laws.
Who writes all the laws and regulations preventing technological development and protecting the markets of large corporations. The capitalists. Meden Agan. Nothing too much! Free the Petite Bourgeoisie!
Shanzhai NOT IP!
Speaking of Mr. Colt... from Google AI:
colt patent fight history
Samuel Colt’s patent battles trace the birth of the American firearms industry, driven by his aggressive defense of his 1836 revolver patent against early competitors like the Massachusetts Arms Company. Colt successfully dominated the 19th-century cap-and-ball market through these victories, but later missed out on the metallic cartridge era due to counter-litigation.
The history of Colt’s patent fights is defined by four major milestones:
1. Crushing the Early Competitors (1851–1852)
Colt vigorously defended his 1836 patents, particularly against the Massachusetts Arms Company (MAC). MAC utilized paper rolls and percussion caps designed by Edward Maynard to skirt Colt's cylinder designs. Colt launched a series of high-profile lawsuits, claiming prior art, and won the cases, practically bankrupting MAC.
2. The "Bored-Through Cylinder" War (1855–1870s)
Before cartridges became the industry standard, Colt dismissed an idea from his gunsmith, Rollin White, who proposed a "bored-through" cylinder. Colt believed the design was inherently unsafe and unworkable. White then patented the design himself in 1855.
Smith & Wesson's Monopoly: Daniel Wesson recognized the value of White's patent for metallic cartridges. Smith & Wesson acquired an exclusive license, paying White $0.25 per revolver.
The Colt Freeze-Out: Because Smith & Wesson owned the rights to the bored-through cylinder, Colt was legally prevented from producing modern cartridge revolvers for nearly 20 years.
3. The Attempted Buyout (1867)
As the patent expiration date loomed, Colt and Smith & Wesson attempted to negotiate. In 1867, White and Smith & Wesson offered Colt the rights to the patent for $1,000,000 (equivalent to roughly $25 million today). Colt declined, opting to wait until the patent expired.
4. The 1873 Single Action Army
Once Rollin White's patent expired in the early 1870s, Colt was finally free to incorporate rear-loading metallic cartridges into their designs. This culminated in the release of the Colt Single Action Army (SAA) in 1873, widely remembered as "The Gun That Won the West."
Shanzhai, NOT IP!
All... is not that simple...
Why they had patents in USSR too???
Ask (your) kings -- why they intriduced that patents. ;-p
How do you think Joe?
Am I nailed Lessy, with this my resolution? ;-)
As them why they introduced trademarks and corporations...
The Catholic Church was the 1st corporation. It was introduced to exempt Church Properties from the king's taxation. It was also introduced so that the Church could legislate and settle disputes in ecclesiatic courts (Like Islam's Shari'a courts). The City of London Corporation (Independent City governance) still runs the global economy. If the king wanted to enter the city of London, a waited at Temple Bar for permission to enter.
The Temple Bar is the only surviving ceremonial gateway into the City of London. Designed by Sir Christopher Wren and completed in 1672, the Portland stone arch once stood between Fleet Street and the Strand. Dismantled in the 19th century and exiled to Hertfordshire, it was meticulously returned and reconstructed in Paternoster Square in 2004.Key Details & History
The Location: It sits just steps away from St Paul’s Cathedral in Paternoster Square, serving as an ornate pedestrian entry point.
Historical Boundary: Historically, the gate marked the exact boundary between the City of London and the City of Westminster. It is still the spot where the reigning Monarch stops to request the Lord Mayor's permission to enter the City.
A Gruesome Past: Throughout the 18th century, the iron spikes on top of the main arch were notoriously used to display the severed heads of executed traitors.
Current Use: The structure is now home to the Worshipful Company of Chartered Architects. The chamber above the arch is periodically used for private events, educational tours, and meetings.
It'sd also the home of the Inns @ Court, home to England's legal profession. A "limbic" site outside the jurisdictions of the City of London AND to a certain extent, the king...
During the 12th and early 13th centuries, law was taught in the City of London, primarily by the clergy. In 1219 Pope Honorius III promulgated Super Specula, prohibiting the clergy from studying secular law as opposed to canon law. As a result, English common law began to be practised and taught by laymen instead of clerics. To protect their schools from competition, first Henry II (r. 1154–1189) and later Henry III (r. 1216–1272) issued proclamations prohibiting the teaching of civil law within the City of London. The common-law lawyers worked in guilds of law, modelled on trade guilds, which in time became the Inns of Court.[4]
In the earliest centuries of their existence, beginning with the 14th century, the Inns were any of a sizeable number of buildings or precincts where lawyers traditionally lodged, trained and carried on their profession. Over the centuries, the four Inns of Court became where barristers were trained, while the more numerous Inns of Chancery – which were initially affiliated to the Inns of Court[5] – became associated with the training of solicitors in the Elizabethan era.
It was the subject of two short stories by Herman Melville (American - Moby Dick author)... The Paradise of the Bachelors (Inns @ Court) and the Tartarus of the Maids (Factory workers).
Because whoever is in charge, be they the Church or the State, need to "control" events within their realms. they do not brook rivals to their power.
The etymology of "brook no rivals" tracks how a word meaning "to enjoy food" evolved into a term for "refusing to tolerate competition."The expression is built on the verb brook, which has completely different historical roots from the noun brook (a small stream).
1. The Ancient Roots: "To Enjoy"The verb traces back to the Proto-Indo-European root *bhrug-, which meant "to use" or "to enjoy". This same ancient root passed into Latin to give us the word fruit (the literal "enjoyment" or produce of the earth).In Old English, this became the verb brūcan, which meant to use, possess, or enjoy. (This is also why it is a close cousin to the modern German verb brauchen, which means "to need").
Where does the money come from and what type is it? Is it silver/ gold coin? Printed bills (fiat money)? Or Bitcoin? How is money's
value" enforced (legal tender)? Is the coinage often debased (shave off pieces of coins or allow with other metals?)... or as in US... "inflation"?
Coinage was first invented by Candaules... and his wife... the first exchanged "coin". ;)
Church vs State... the Two Consuls of the Roman Republic, secular peasants playing one against the other to create a "split" into which they could escape and live free... until some fool organized a new kingdom of laws within THAT crack of freedom. :(
A Deleuzian deterritorialization... a schizoid line of flight... a re-territorialization. A new organ within the same old body... a new symbiosis developed.
...from the verticality of arboreal hierarchy, to horizontal rhisome, and back to arboreal hierarchy....

Go read Marx…
I've done better. I've read his peers.
Slogging through Das Kapital merely perpetuates Das Kapital. Didn't you watch my recently posted Bataille and Baudrillard videos?
Turns out some opiates can be good for the masses' liberation. Perhaps good potlatch or bonfire of vanities every now and again purposed towards surplus elimination and non-productive waste...
Do the poor have the "right" to jus abutendi like the capitalists do? Or have the capitalists EVER stopped "accumulating" social-governmental influence via IMMORTAL "legal" inventions like corporations and/or philanthro-capitalism?
The Capitalists can do more than simply "consume". They can "produce/ accumulate FOREVER", "consume", AND waste/ sacrifice their wealth/ properties." whenever they wish (they have "dominion") The consumerist poor never accumulate wealth/ properties to waste/ sacrifice nor hold dominion. They only have their bodies and minds to rent. They have none of the advantages that accumulated wealth and properties (dominion) can confer and that preclude them from competition with the capitalists.
At least back in the Middle Ages when all the surplus wealth went into buiding cathedrals, the poor could sit in an overly ornate and luxurious cathedral and enjoy a mass.
Would Bill Gates ever let you into his home to watch his home theater? He'll only at most et you into an office cube in a sterile office building in Seattle and pay you a pittance for an daily 8 hour stretch of "rent collecting" from the public and your friends for the use of his MS Windows OS & browsers. The IP and other "intangible assets" that are impossible to assess value of and thereby "tax" accordingly.
Ah... the life of a technofeudal lord, collecting internet rents from the cloud serfs...
It's "free" to the cloud serfs, once they pay their rents to the lords for using his applications, and purchase their tech from the cloud vassals who build the systems that their lord's applications run on. It's "free"!
Wealth is an accumulated surplus. The working class have none. The capitalists have horded all the surplus values and kept them for themselves. They only brook their workers their "necessities", not any "surplus". If you're a lucky worker who helps the capitalist maintain order, they may pay you a surplus salary if you keep the other workers in line (become surplus salaried Professional Managerial Class - PMC). That way you can drive a Lexus, instead of a Honda. You ARE your "brand" and collected "system of objects", after all.
Buggagah! ;P
House slaves SHOULD dress better than Field slaves. The Masters don't need to look at the latter! It would offend his eyes. It only takes a little capital "surplus" to do that.
Mr. Ducky used to HATED the Baroque period in art (meant to inspire AWE for the Catholic Counter-Reformation). I've always loved it, all that wasted capital!
