@NatureSchoolSU @WifeMamaHome @RizomaSchool 2/ The Spell? Mistaking our maps for reality—not just a mistake in thinking, but total civilizational inversion of the organizing principle—the representational copy rules the represented original. We don't just get the ontic hierarchy wrong: the moral order is itself flipped.

Copy tweet thread here: 1/2 #JianweXun: "What's at stake isn't just our political systems but our capacity for sovereignty over our own perception. The real battle isn't between different ideologies but between different architectures of consciousness." end/ A cartoon caricature functionally enculturating as mass consciousness was predictable, I suppose, given how thoroughly secular modernity constitutes a P$eudo-Event. But the question remains. Does there exist a 'more real' Reality to hand and, crucially, how may we access it?
@dysangelistes @lukeburgis Their track record says enough, and brings us to a practical concern with systemic possession. As such, the Messiah: functionally, an exorcism recalibrating identity at the planetary level, establishing an axis of ontological legitimacy restoring individual and cosmic order.

In a form of world 'exorcism' as Rev. Dr. Lewis calls it, the Messiah effectively vaporizes a vast, diabolical enchantment. t.co/xgNxKFTfzu

Copy of tweet here: Perhaps it's timely to ask to what degree all of us have been 'NPC-ed' by the peak deception of a monolithic caricature of reality-in-actuality, and the immense array of epistemologies and institutions its all-pervasive optics exclusively represent, validate and secure? @nick_routledge and @johnrobb 2/ Then again, a culturally-constructed Spectacle passing for substantive reality is hardly news; nor, for that matter, is the dark sorcery of veiled powers commanding us to be fooled by appearances - ravenous wolves disguised as angels of light. There is another way, of course.

As for endings and beginnings, John Moriarty's "the Second Coming is but a better understanding of the First Coming", now has me imagining the transcendent shock of the Parousial Hour or Day of the Eschatological Event as, at heart, a spell-breaking event. t.co/X5v1cfuNvD

Passage boundary: To see Source: Preserve quoted-author distinctions; the containing tweet does not confer authorship. Copy of tweet: To see is to see through. Realpolitik, the keeper of the prison, which commands us to be fooled by appearances, to respect the Emperor's New Clothes. The blindness is from the blinkers of decorum. ‘Apocalypsis’ strips away the decent draperies on which the whole big lie depends.
