A Deliberate Experiment

It all makes perfect sense, the Organisational Management move. You just have to understand the context.  

I don’t want to understand their context. It might destroy my mind. Quite literally.

I can’t think like them. That’s what they want: for us to think like them.

We already do! That’s the problem! I’m sick of their logic! I’m choked with their logic! The Organisational Management logic is, like, the logic of the world.

We have to understand their logic more deeply than they do. We have to be able to use their logic against them. That’s what Cicero would do.

 

Tyrell said they were going to learn from us, the philosophers. Learn! Imagine! He wants to learn! We’re to teach him – them! Collaborate with the enemy! It’s like Vichy France all over again!

 

Do you think we have a sense of proportion?

Fuck proportion. Proportion’s what’s got us here. They’re so hyperbolically positive, we have to be hyperbolically negative. It’s a way of surviving. It’s a yin yang thing. We’re working for the harmony of the universe. We’re doing our bit for cosmic balance. There are a lot of them, and they’re very positive. There are only a few of us, so we have to be ultra-negative, right?

 

They don’t understand us and they don’t understand that they don’t understand us. And they can’t understand. Which means they have no sense of what they’re doing to us psychologically. The way they’re destroying us. How they’re tearing us apart.

 

I see it as a deliberate experiment. They’re seeing whether they can change us. From within. Cell by cell. They’re going to make us into good Organisational Managers. They’re going to show they can manage the unmanageable. The question is, who put them up to it?

Who did put them up to it?

This is part of something larger. Something global. Something civilizational. What’s happening here is happening everywhere. Which is why if we defeat it here, maybe – just maybe – we’ll defeat it everywhere.

Is that how it works?

We’ll learn what we learn and it can be applied elsewhere. We’re in enemy territory but that’s how we can learn all about the enemy. We have to use all our philosophical acumen to critique this. And twist free of this. And do more than that: destroy it.
