I Myself (Ego) Do Not See, I Can Only be Shown... by the 'Others' (SuperEgo's) Gaze!

Of the many possible underdetermined hermeneutical associations of the word "passencore" we have "passenger", ie- that one is a passenger to one's own journey, identity, and maladies. This message is at the very heart of the psychic libidinal journey through identity that is "Finnegans Wake". Confronting all sorts of anxieties complexes and impulses in the process.

Additionally, one could read that the Invader which Sir Tristram is here, invading from Over the short sea, who is the psychic 'other' of the dreamer, carries with him passengers, or multitudes, which threaten one from various angles. Thus "Finnegans Wake" is in part a persecution narrative, dealing with the psychological discomfort involved not only with facing against others, but facing the discontinuities within oneself. Which describes thus the ambivalent relationship of the self to its' own memory and iteration through time, leaving one often feeling at odds with oneself.
"Main character syndrome" is a social media term describing the tendency to view oneself as the central protagonist in life, often leading to self-centered behaviors and a lack of empathy for others.

“We can express our feelings regarding the world around us either by poetic or by descriptive means... I prefer to express myself metaphorically. Let me stress: metaphorically, not symbolically. A symbol contains within itself a definite meaning, certain intellectual formula, while metaphor is an image. An image possessing the same distinguishing features as the world it represents. An image — as opposed to a symbol — is indefinite in meaning. One cannot speak of the infinite world by applying tools that are definite and finite. We can analyse the formula that constitutes a symbol, while metaphor is a being-within-itself, it’s a monomial. It falls apart at any attempt of touching it."

-Andrei Tarkovsky

sounds like the marketing department. Sit on the toilet, read the news and let the suckers produce the stuff?

...More like this is how Elon will control his employees, making them "passengers" to their alienated worker identities.
