The University/ Analyst Discourses: The Ideological Rear-Guard Power Seeking & Preservation Options of the Elites (Lions) & Counter-Elites (Foxes)

Organizing Hysteria via Ideology:

"A Cynical Justification of the Master Discourse (Right-Knavery)
vs.
A Cynical Justification of the Analyst Discourse (Left-Foolishness)
Meden Agan!

from Google AI:
Jacques Lacan viewed democratic politics not as an escape from authority, but as a modern evolution of the Master's Discourse, famously warning revolutionary students in 1968 that their aspirations would only result in finding a new master. [1]
Core Structure of the Master's Discourse
  • Master Signifier (S₁): Dictates the rules and initiates the social link, standing in for authority and masking any internal division or lack.
  • Knowledge (S₂): The system of administration, bureaucracy, or accumulated societal rules put to work by the master.
  • The Subject ($): The divided, alienated citizen or worker who is subjected to the signifier and put to labor.
  • Surplus Enjoyment (a): The elusive object of desire or product that is generated by the subject's labor and appropriated by the structure. [1, 2, 3]
Democracy and the Shift to Modern Authority
  • Illusion of Equality: Democratic systems replace the traditional king or overt tyrant with abstract concepts like "the people" or the "general will," which still function structurally as a commanding master signifier (S₁). [1]
  • Incessant Demand: Rather than liberating the subject, democracy within a capitalist matrix turns the master's demand into a superego injunction to enjoy and consume, effectively keeping the subject bound to production. [1]
  • The Inevitable Return: For Lacan, every political revolution or attempt at total emancipation collapses back into a master's discourse because social bonds fundamentally rely on an organizing authority and linguistic exclusion. [1, 2]

And not Evilution...

that built in instincts into any animal -- so they would know how to seek food and how to produce progeny?

That is all Evil Capitalism DID? %^P

For that sore losers,.. to not listen to noble missive of Lessing's son. ;-p

You don't need "verification" and "validation" (IV&V). Isn't that the ultimate test of your Software? NASA used to send their software to an IV&V facility in West Virginia for acceptance testing prior to launch. Did you ever see the movie "Hidden Figures"?
