So they are flitted this way and that by the pull of appropriations of means and resources, systemic tending to the health of beings, and what concessions can be thrown to them — but these are in fact the central issues beyond them to be rightly won either directly by beings at large or through the personnel chosen at the behest of beings at large, upon pain of death if necessary (for otherwise such will befall the mass). ? Thus they are stretched thin yet past the rubicon of inner reformation, of sating or extinguishing of the appetite that drove them to their position, or of the mercy of circumstance as may include the unforgiving competitive furnace into which they are now mired. ? For as much as they form and dictate, they too are formed and dictated by a combination of circumstance both natural and endemic to their position, as imposed from above by those whose position they hope to occupy, and also as a face and distributor of general thoughtforms dispersed from the halls of officiality. ? in the at-least knowledge that another has it worse) and as a universal existential consequence of the pyrrhic venture of total power-seizure that is the Blightgeistian (and particularly erosive) mindset. ? Even upon sufficient and efficient notice they may be sent clamoring, in corporeal and mental form, to their destination on appointed time to make their input. ? Thus to a degree the coveted privilege of their position as an official input and thus stake in official outcome becomes logistically difficult. ? Thus both the covert and overt deliberators of the official system are strained to find a balance between achieving the ends of their schemes and in the meantime sufficiently appeasing their subjects to win enough public favor to be carried forth and have it appear as though indeed official input by beings at large factors into the official system’s current arrangement of personnel. ? The craft of rule for the domain of he territorialist faction which they have decided to work for is the most key of these roles, and this bears mentioning amidst the endless claptrap about supposed freedom as pertains to the faction as well as the supposed allowed and desired official input of the masses (which is to say more narrowly their subjects). ? So what of this key agent’s many capacities in a deciding sub-branch of a territorialist faction’s official system? ? Plus as much as it may in theory be suitable only for one whose key ambitions lie solely within the position so sought, it does not forgive even that candidate as far as the wares of the soul and of inter-agent conflict; and, what's more, bound as many key agents within the halls of officiality are (especially the higher up the rung they go) to the veneer of culturally conditioned signifiers of success and wholeness — i. ? Thus the technical success of the being engrossed in such role qua the role entails a level of inner privation that is (perhaps unbeknownst to them at the initial time of entry) inevitable to the system both as a byproduct of advance competition among key agents with each other for their ultimate seized power (at least insofar as they can muster it or relative to others, i. ? This ultimately is further privation of intent, productivity, and soul by countless cuts, not least of all due to the general mundaneity of the usually procedural or logistical matters at hand in covenants and the official inputs tallied towards them, for these at least seem necessary for maintenance of system operations, for the arrival at more pressing matters as may be more central to the deliberator’s interest (though this is in opposition to those of every other deliberator present who schemes the same for themselves), and as a passing of time to justify the system’s continued existence and operation as is. ? e. ? For the deliberators here may commit countless official inputs across covenants that themselves may be but farcical (though indeed not as much as those for the masses or subjects), embedded as they are into the system in a pyrrhic hope of self-optimization that would ultimately (or at least penultimately) make them the victorious exceptions to the meat-grinder-fate of those kept within the framework of the territorailist faction and, by extension, the Blightgeist. ? vocation and family according to the norms of the parent system for which the agent vies — they indeed are (at least if they want to further ensure their success and public favor according to the mass conditioning apparati) bound to those same other obligations amidst their key official one and bound to exist and die by their public statements and coverage. ? e. ? For the key Blightgeistian agent engrossed in the manifold daily activities of their own depraved ambition, there can be no rest — internally or externally. ? Specifically, they may be (depending on the parent system to which they belong, which is to say the territorialist faction to which they belong) called to covenants public or secret, to individual work among civil subjects, to the hours of official position, to moments of public face, or to events concerning official outcomes. ? Yet even regarding such significant issues, they are marred likewise by the tedium of the system in place and (for the deliberator) by the fact that they, however ultimately inefficiently and insufficiently, grapple with those matters that seek to pacify beings at large via the granting of concessions to avoid meantime rebellion and overpowering by beings at large for being-as-such.
