== Unsorted Lexemes ==

* egoism
* individualism
* meta-ontologically sound / meta-ontological soundness  ->  a statement is meta-ontologically sound when it would be recognized as true by anyone in any ideological faction or interest-having population of people which has a high school education and does not believe blatantly false statements. those are a little hard to find for Toryism, of course, but educated Tories do exist; they're a bit scary because they see all the evidence that progressives point to without being able to deny it, and then spin that factual information as bad to protect some pre-defined set of interests like "my family" or "my socially-linked several-state-sized reactionary subpopulation of White people". the good news is that a lot of statements by Tories fail to be meta-ontologically sound even if they're based on lists of true facts because there are reasons they blatantly cannot be recognized as true by other ideologies.
* slider-speak  ->  this didn't have its own term in MDem drafts until very very recently. for a while I called it generalized alchemy, or metaphysics, or mistaking the ability to create adjectives for reality. I still think those all fit fine. but we need to really stop and characterize this thing at length so we genuinely see how weird it is.
* stealth activism  ->  this is a totally stupid term for a reasonable thing. the definition I heard almost reduced it down to taking over structures and Each Individual In Parallel Culturing Better. which is... very Gramscian. it may be necessary and even effective but my one issue is I wish nobody would use the word activism for it. it's like. sure, you can do that. but there eventually comes a point where you're preserving particular oppressive countable Cultures for the hell of it and committing to take the steering wheel of the oppression bus and run it a little less bad, while — here is the real problem that overshadows any other concern — you're part of an overall national population which by its own existence justifies torching other people-groups in an act of self-defense murder just because the national population exists. self-defense genocide exists now. (even though it did exist in 1800, I know.) do you know what kind of atom-thick hair edge Gramscianism is operating on? do people even know that. one day you can be doing ""stealth activism"" and the next day the people you barely shifted over to win one issue could be torching you too, because two different swaths of stealth-activists for different issues ended up on different sides of the Torching Unamericans divide where only so many people fit in the core group of people truly allowed to live. as time goes on I increasingly feel like Gramscianism is an elite ideology and it's not really for the people who actually get hurt by Toryism or "fascism". why do you need Gramscianism if you already fit into institutions well enough to infiltrate them?
* cultural context  ->  this phrase kills me because I feel like it is used for ten different things and every time people say it they're using it to get out of distinguishing those things from each other. Foucault used it to describe a stage of development of class society, with actual structures and territory-owners. a Deltarune video I listened to used it to describe people living in one US state instead of another, literally just the geographical region people live in and the weather and climate they had experiences about. see why it's not actually a very clear thing? people are conditioned to think populations are made out of culture and culture can easily be used to distinguish populations but then when they describe what culture is they're often describing things that come almost strictly before culture per-se.
* military-cultural complex  ->  this is what has existed since the Cold War. this is what I have been trying to get at with descriptions of all socially-linked groups of people generating The State to protect the sheer existence of their socially-linked group of friends.
* Herculean task
* Sisyphean task
* Minosian task  ->  a task so bad you lock it away
* Promethean task  ->  "something you know is the right thing to do but you still get punished for it"
* Odyssean task  ->  task that "should have been simple but everything goes wrong in the worst ways making it insanely long"
* Orphean task  ->  when you are doomed to fail for the same reasons you are desperate to succeed
* solidarity  ->  the more I read about this word the more it sounds to me like it's a question rather than an answer. it began around the time of the French Revolution but every single person trying to create a new theory of how to build society defined it a bit differently. I really think solidarity is just a word more than it's a concept. to actually achieve proletarian solidarity you need to define new much more specific concepts like filtration
* recursion  ->  fractal process of some kind; programming usage; specific cybernetics use
* world party  ->  pros of Bordigism: actually talks about patterns of party operation which are oddly specific. cons of Bordigism: I don't have the slightest idea what any of these things are.
* essentialism
* anti-essentialism  ->  one of the better theories for understanding human individuals themselves rather than whole populations
* strategic essentialism  ->  a particular concept of benign nationalism used in context of national independence from global empire, as in India. I am trying so hard not to say the words "culture", "colonial", or "postcolonial" because I feel like that cluster of concepts has muddied up absolutely everything and made every single struggle people are trying to get through across the world harder. why did we all decide people were made of culture rather than [[redlink - Hyper-Materialism|being made of people and populations]]. why did we do that.
* strategic anti-essentialism  ->  George Lipsitz (b.1947). the act of resisting membership in a particular restrictive Social-Philosophical System of culture by expressing the practices of a different Social-Graph System of culture. see: Satanism and Gnosticism, wiccans and pagan revival, schizoanalysis, United States otaku.
* agent  ->  already used to describe the concept of Group Subjects in slightly obscure biology/ecology research
* solidarity  ->  original definition of Third World proletarian subpopulations standing together against all owning classes; vulgarized definition where it has been co-opted into the entirely different idea of Existentialist individuals throughout multiple First World countries standing together because they are The Subject. this word is like, the day that Marxism absolutely died because Marxists ceased being aware that the First World was weaponizing the notions of "empathy" and "community" to defend all scales of chunk competition and crush empathy, community, and solidarity alike.
* denial of coloniality  ->  way better phrasing than trying to turn every word for empire into a word for prejudices in people's heads
* The West  ->  it's always been really weird to me people say this. it always weirdly feels as if people passively acknowledge the existence of a British Empire after the British Empire.
* The East
* Filamentocracy  ->  add to "Filament"
** democulture is the class ideology of Filamentocracy. that's just it. that's why people believe in democulture and Goku's filter
* intersubjectivity
* Market Society  ->  this came up in MDem v4.3 and kind of fell off as a major topic although it very much stayed a term. near synonym for primitive Existentialism but focuses more on the notion of isolation. coined to mock the term "market economy" by pointing out what economies really are: society itself. socioeconomies.
* [S2] Kirby is a metaphor for humanity / Kirby is the quintessential Subject  ->  really funny copypasta [https://www.reddit.com/r/copypasta/comments/afr9xc/kirby_is_a_metaphor_for_humanity/] [https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/comments/gi29qv/tomt_whats_the_name_of_the_term_when_an_author/] <s>somebody seems to have dreamed up while up into the morning unable to sleep, I mean that's my injection of my own experience but yeah.</s> from a Polygon video? I was just trying to find the definition of "bookman's bluff" and here we are
* free-floating  ->  add to "free"; very similar usage to an object being "knocked free" or "wrested free"
* constructive process  ->  related to "construct" as is also used as a verb
* destructive process
* nationogenesis  ->  the slow or quick assembly of individuals within an existing national population into a new nation and spatially-unique realized Bauplan. the reason this "needed" a new word is that it can happen with people of the same ethnic group and religion and who are overall seemingly the same group of people in every way, yet who spontaneously begin drifting into totally new groups of people thanks to the news station they listen to, their incomplete understanding of Leninism, or some other factor that would be unexpected to most people
* postification / post- / post-ify  ->  not used many times in v5.2 in favor of returning to plainer language, but the concept is always there in basically every chapter
* physics as equalling factical systems; physics as relativistic causality exchange
* thought / think  ->  logical process Lexeme
* modal realism: all hypothetically possible worlds are technically real. David Lewis.
* economy / socioeconomy
* socioeconomy, sociophilosophy, socioempire, sociocurrency
* rival / rivalrous  ->  I forget why I added this. it had something to do with Creative Commons and "non-rivalrous goods" and some killer analogy I'd gotten from that vaguely related to chunk competition or graph economics but I forget the exact connection I made. I think it was something like, when everyone lives in rivalrous houses, and has to pay for them with rivalrous jobs, and it's so easy to totally slip past anyone else's attention because people have to "spend" their attention on one thing or another, it's hard for anything to really actually be non-rivalrous. populations are rivalrous, countable Cultures are rivalrous, physical individuals are rivalrous. you have to overcome all of that just to create a non-rivalrous good
