Words

'Nazi' is now a term used to describe any individual of European ancestry - primarily male - which contradicts or rejects post-modernity.
It includes fascism, sexism, racism, homophobia, triggering images of atrocities, cultivated through Hollywood films and the viciousness of war, that ought to silence or degrade any opinion that challenges the prevailing ideology in the American dominated 'west'.
The image is one of violence to justify violence towards them, manufacturing the either/or binary of good versus evil, godliness versus satanism, virtue versus the vice.

The word "esoteric" is always used as a pretense: either as a pretense of possessing a secret knowledge/understanding, reserved for a select few, in fact hiding ignorance dealing with need/desire (insecurity), or a pretense concealing what ought not to be shared with anyone but a select few, hiding the origins of the pretense itself.
Either ignorance, pretending to be hiding profound insight and wisdom - a promise of power - or motive, pretending to be other than what it is - a pretext of victimhood and weakness.

The term 'gypsy' is a derivative of the term Egyptian.
In Greek ΓΥΦΤΟΣ, from Αιγύπτιος, i.e. Egyptian.

Common roots in Egypt - Afro-Asiatic - producing a common survival strategy, pregnant with the effects of centuries of enslavement; shaped in relation to ancient-Egyptian culture and its Pharaohs - rebellion against all earthly authorities; victim identity; tribal collectivism projected as cosmic collectivism; inversion of shame into pride - slave becomes master; a sense of uniqueness born from having endured and escaped; up-rootlessness - home is everywhere and nowhere - groundlessness becoming its carried grounding, the weight of its fate (choseness) - carried in the mind as a seductive idea (god) overcompensating for its up-rootedness, its lack of a foundation in nature with a supernatural foundation; groundlessness becoming ideology that is carried from place to place across time, to be at home everywhere and nowhere - idea of the outside, he who does not belong, the one lacking roots; humanity is world - world is humanity, its boundaries on the periphery of urban settlements, symbols/words being the tendrils through which it appropriates and consumes, manipulating/exploiting what it does not belong to, concealed in and through linguistic (semiotic) mysticism and obscurantism...

Negro component ought not to be underestimated. Hundreds migrated up the Nile into 'lower Egypt' adding to its cosmopolitan heterogeneity their own sub-Saharan traditions - mixing with the local populations - miscegenation.
Some mulattoes rising to the privileged position of Pharaoh so that present day Negroes can claim Egypt as their own 'civilization'; compensating for the absence of any comparable civilization in the sub-Saharan territories of their origins. They can appropriate it, after the fact, as being their own invention, just as some can claim the American identity as their own - slaves built the U.S. - Obama being their post-modern pharaoh who rose to power just as those ancient mulattoes had. If miscegenation proceeds future generations of mulattoes may even claim that the U.S. was their creation.

Everything is a contrast between what has been habituated towards that which is new/novel and alien/strange, e.g., I/Other, good/bad, hot/cold, good/evil, positive/negative. All value judgments are a description from the vantage point of the subject with its habituated state, its norm, relating to what it has not become habituated to, and is other, strange, and different.
All value judgements are triangulation between what is – i.e., subjective – to what is not – i.e., objective – and the evaluation of the moment from ‘I’ (here/now) towards ‘other’ (there/then) – process of normalizing or habituating the subject to what may become a new norm.
When the ‘I’ (here/now) is deemed to be undesirable, then the ‘other’ (there/then, the ‘what if?’) becomes the desired, the hopeful alternative.

If you learn the lingo of this new secular version of Abrahamism you understand the mentality of the true believer.
Destroying the one-god of Christianity has to be substituted by something comparable.....like Marxism.....but also post-modernism.

Victim = true believer, born again, faithful, pure, innocent, good....
God = humanity.
America = Jerusalem/Christened saviour coming to earth to save - free - mankind form itself.
Satan/Evil = Nazi
Infidel = non-believer, fascist, white.
Holocaust = Armageddon.
Salvation = freedom.
Paradise = equality.
Divine retribution = justice.

All within a Messianic framework built on binary all or nothing.

You disconnect language from reality and then reattach it, word by word, to emotions, or to script triggering emotions, replacing reason with emotion.

Then it doesn't matter what word you use because ti has no external reference....its reference is to another mind, or a script externalizing the ideas of another mind, or you reconnect it back to the individual's own mind - inter-subjectivity.
Then you replace the criterion for evaluating validity from logic and reason, supported by perceptible evidence and arguments, to emotional reactions triggered by words/symbols.
Now, truth/false is determined by good/bad feelings....positive/negative feelings.
External references are substituted by feelings.
a word no longer connects noumenon with a phenomenon, but it connects noumenon - i.e., idea/ideal, concept - with an emotional reaction - or to more words/symbols that trigger the appropriate emotional reactions; or ideas in another mind that trigger these emotions.
The emotions are the unifying principle...primal animalistic - lowest-common-denominator, crossing tribal, genetic and memetic identities.
What unifies all....the same emotions triggered by the same symbols/words.

What is logos?
Language with specific triggers.

What is all this?
The moralization of mankind.
Their conversion to children....children of the book, by the book, for the book - infants of scripture.
A repackaged version of the same.....all wrapped up and sold to the same types, but using different jargon.
What is new and updated is the lingo.

Nihilism is linguistic and nothing more than that.
Logocentric....and entirely impotent beyond semiotics and the brains that can be manipulated by symbols and art.
A word-based political tool of exploitation and manipulation - mind control.

Its range of effect - its power potential - is determined by its linguistic reach - not only literacy but the training of minds to react to specific symbols in desirable ways, so that eventually a word command can be used to produce automatic emotional re-actions.

An indoctrinated mind can then simply use words as a defence against reason...
for example, when it can't defend its learned/indoctrinated convictions about race, it simply dismisses the perspective by calling it 'racist' or 'Nazi'.
Christians do this to defend their beliefs against atheists and non-believers.
The system provides it with words of anathema...expressing the idea of evil or the devil.

Herd psychology deals with all residual aftereffects. the herd gathers, regurgitating the collective language of its identity and its defensiveness against external predators/threats.
With every repetition of the linguistic prayer the individual member of the herd is reassured - it is calmed - it forgets - lethe.
the collective reaffirms shared convictions - the external referent is replaced by another member or by the entire collective - the whole - which reflects back the same convictions using the same jargon.
The abstraction - noumenon - now does have an external reference...it is in other minds or in script written by other minds belonging to the same herd. The herd mind compensates for the absence of an external reference - world - humanity; humanity = world. An echo chamber.

To begin to understand the psychological difference between a body-centred versus a mind-centred world view and how each psychology applies language, you will have to consider the difference of a skeleton internalized and one externalized, i.e., esoskeleton/exoskeleton.
Body is flesh encompassing/enveloping a skeletal bone structure, but then as you proceed upwards towards brain we see the inversion where cranium envelopes the flesh/blood of the brain.
This is the basis of nihilistic inversions and its idealized use of semiotics.

A tangible - body centralized - foundation of Nietzsche's Dionysian/Apollonian mindset, and the source of body/mind dissonance and their respectful world-views - i.e., philosophies - each centralizing or founding itself either upon body or upon mind.

Body is exposed to world, whereas mind is sheltered by a womb-like cranium, receiving energies for its energy hungry functions, whereas body is contrarily struggling to preserve and appropriate/consume energies being lost by its continuous contact with reality (attrition) - its relentless interactivity.

Changing the definition of words to satiate the demands of the mob. Not chilling at all. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

— Paul Joseph Watson (@PrisonPlanet) [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Nihilism can change the definition of words at will because it has detached them from empiricism.
it's not that races are a social construct but that they "ought to be social constructs" if we apply the power of "logos" properly.

So, we detach the term 'race' from its role as connecting an our perception and abstraction - i.e., apparent, appearance - with an observable divergence of pattern/kind - i.e., phenomenon from reality - and we define the term out of existence - i.e., we mystify and obscure it converting it into a pure noumenon - i.e., an abstraction represented by a word that has no reference, no anchoring in reality.

At this point we can redefine it at will because there is no external restriction to how we can conceptualize the abstraction.

This is zombification.
It produces inter-subjectivity when these zombies reconnect the detached from reality abstractions with collective abstractions, usually with the aid of a mitigating emotional criterion, viz., hedonism.
We may be insane, but it feels good to be insane because sanity is difficult to endure for long periods if you are a feeble coward, i.e., a Desperate Degenerate.


Racism is now replacing the term 'evil'....because what we perceive as different, we are told, is really the same, or insignificant, superficial and/or illusory.
Races as breeds of the human species is a construct - it does not exist.
What appears different is really the same - multiplicity conceals a singularity; divergence conceals uniformity.
All is inverted. Do not trust your senses, genetically evolved over centuries of natural selection, trust your mind, and the minds of your comrades and your collective agreement, your shared ideology, your common need/desire to escape the apparent into the theoretical; escape the phenomenon into collective noumena.
If not oneness then nil.

Newspeak....in time the words for 'race' will disappear or be a trigger for negative emotions, reactions.
The existence of races will not vanish, but the infested minds of the indoctrinated will be unable to even consider its existence.

Attributing 'divinity' to a word or an idea is how it becomes something that cannot be questioned, only blindly accepted. Christians 'win' every logical argument by claiming a defunct position of "the power of God's presence cannot be known or questioned". Therefore, the tactic is to deify these words into the higher realm of the supernatural, of religious belief. Racism is a distinctly institutionalized invented term, and the political institution has become the new Catholic Church; that which cannot be questioned.

This is where Nietzsche's "dangerous thinking" derives from. He questioned and explored and deconstructed the very words associated with ideas embedded deep in the social consciousness, into the very biology of the individual itself.

Without a "proper" definition of the words being used all discussions revert to an endless cycle of meaningless banter, where both sides speak at one another - butter on the bread of nihilists, cynics, and charlatans who thrive on ambiguity and do not seek resolutions, nor clarity, but only to preserve their established defensive, linguistic, measures.
By "proper" I do not mean arbitrary, or whatever I, or anyone else declares - inter-subjectivity where the only resolution is to "agree to disagree' and to retire to our private universes - but it means to reconnect words/symbols to their original meaning, within a shared world we all experience; it means a return to how words once connected mind (subjective) with world - (objective), acting ad a mediator, in the same way light mediates between phenomenon and sense organ - noumenon.

Obscurantism is the ideal environment for charlatans, degenerates, hypocrites and cowards, desperately wanting to preserve their cultivated social image - each with their own private, needy, motives.

So whether we call it "chien", or "dog, or "σκυλι" is insignificant when all word refer to the same biological phenomenon, with the same characteristics, traits, and behaviours - patterns.

A proper understanding and use of words - when and if possible is essential to philosophy.
An improper - intentionally or not - understanding - definition - and application of words is essential to evading philosophical insights.
I say "when and if possible", because not all words can be properly defined and applied, because not all words are proxies between mind and world, but may be words representing abstractions with no external reference - e.g., unicorn, equality, absolute, one-god, etc. - or may be referring to a combination of abstractions.

Using words to detach all abstractions from their reference sis what nihilists are obsessed with, motivated by a desire to 'liberate' themselves form empiricism, and the tangible, physical world which is present and interpreted as apparent.
A motive that is, by no means, new. It is ancient, and emerges when self-awarness begins to develop.
It's first, manifestations, were religious, spiritual, e.g., Abrahamism - but they've evolved, developed, into secular forms, adjusting themselves to changing cultural and scientific insights, i.e., ideologies, philosophies etc.

As it progresses towards total linguistic detachment the culture it served begins to enter its final phase of existence.
Degeneracy, decadence, schizophrenia, narcissism, become socially acceptable norms, reflecting a ubiquitous organic decline towards decomposition.

Presumably, for the modern nihilist nit-wit, man is too complicated for this to work.
How could Freud, or Bernays, Freud' nephew - who invented modern day marketing - have succeeded in manipulating the masses, if one man, is far too complex to ever make sense of.
It's easy...nit-wits are clueless. It is this belief, this conviction, that makes them malleable, easily manipulated, and simple.

Mankind has always been the underlying concept of the one-god.
The Jewish narrative about being "chosen" by a god all other tribes had rejected, alludes to how humanity had rejected them, forcing them to deify themselves as an act of defiance, and retribution - converting shame inot pride.
But so is Christianity and Islam - offshoots of Judaism - the worship of humanity as an omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscience, when world=humanity, and power=logos - the manipulation, control, alteration of world using semiotics.
To be "saved" is to remain in human memory - as an idea. To be worthy of paradise is to be worthy of being commemorated and idolized by humanity. To belong to god, is to be accepted by humanity.
Hell, in this context, would truly be other people - or ostracization, and exclusion from the group, the human race.
Whatever stands in the way of all-inclusion - such as race, sex, morals - are to be eliminated, allowing all equal and automatic access into the universe of mankind.

Dilemma = how to remain an individual, while at the same time being included into the group; how to distinguish yourself, while remaining true to the uniformity of the group?
An impossible dilemma that can only be concealed through linguistic mystification and obscurantism.

Here genetics inhibit the attainment of the meme that idealizes independence, expressed as indifference i.e., power.
Will to Power is revealed as the dilemma of overcoming your humanity.

What is Dasein According to Heidegger?
Dasein is revealed by projection into, and engagement with, a personal world —a never-ending process of involvement with the world as mediated through the projects of the self. Heidegger considered that language, everyday curiosity, logical systems, and common beliefs obscure Dasein's nature from itself.

How does the human conceal itself from itself?
Through logos, semiotics, fabrications, artifices - art, language = memes.
Memes are how the human manimal hides from itself, e.g., it covers it in garments that arbitrarily conceal the body; it hides in pretence, convoluting itself in an attempt to appear as being more than what it is - i.e., hiding the manifestation of past as presence - interpreted as appearance by all - exposing its essence to all, even those denying the relevance of appearance, or beauty; those that hypocritically deny the objectivity of both.
Hypocrisy is a sign of anxiety.
It is past that must be overcome - or rejected, to purify - liberate - the mind from the body's presence, allowing it to reinvent itself according to its own will - most often the herd follows fashion trends, adopting memetic symbols of rebelliousness and uniqueness and exceptionality.
The slave rebels against its master by enslaving itself to another.  

Internets wrote:

Does dasein live as itself?
Inauthentic Dasein does not live as itself but as ‘they’ live. In fact, for Heidegger, it barely exists at all and it exists in a state of fear [Furcht](Steiner 1978). This fear is distinct from anxiety [Angst].

It cannot live "as itself', because self is a perpetual negation of otherness - "I am that which I am not, or that which I choose not to be" - 'freedom from', not 'freedom to'.
The nil is fundamental, and this is why it is so easy to adopt as a defence against anything and everything that threatens it. The cellular membrane is a nay saying to what is 'other than' what is within.
This is not new - it is a basic principle of organic self-organizing. There is no life without rejection, selective repulsion, that need not be conscious. Life is an encompassing of a segment of space/time - an aggressive appropriation of space/time, i.e., of possibilities, so as to then begin to increase - within this fluctuating space/time, its preferred probabilities.
Saying no to saying no, is what affirmation is - 'negating the nil', is what is called 'positive'. That which has no will, no intent, no objective, is given one through this binary method.

When one is metaphorically "thrown into the world" one is not thrown into chaos, but into order & chaos - Flux, interactivity, energy; one awakens to its state, as one would awaken to himself being pulled down a mountain side by an unseen force, gravity, gradually attempting to orient and direct itself within this endless.
Keeping the metaphor, the source of the river is the near-absolute point of order - a duality that never completes itself into a singularity, and its 'destination' is a widening and flowing into an abysmal ocean of expanding possibilities, that never becomes a universal, uniform, state of chaos - infinite possibilities, all equally possible.
The individual's sojourn is that of being swept away by a river, flowing towards an unknown destination, attempting to direct itself, to swim - will - this way, or that way - this is the extent of its free-will, i.e., choice, with uncertain success, and unforeseeable consequences.

Semiotics, according to Heidegger, conceal the individual from itself - semiotics = language, e.g., numbers, letters, symbolic representations, i.e., art.
Like all art-forms, language can reveal or conceal. A tool that is used by the will to either engage reality, or flee from it.

Meaning.

Connections, and distances/elevations, between points on a cognitive map, creating matrices of relationships we call meaning.

A map is nihilistic to the degree that its symbolic representations refer to nothing geographical, and is entirely imaginary, i.e., existing entirely in the minds sharing it.

Metaphorically
Knowledge = data, i,e., points on a map represented by symbols - language.
Understanding = patterns in the data representing data/knowledge relationships.

Meaning = representing relationships between data points on a map.

It doesn't matter which noun you choose to use, what word/symbol you prefer to refer to the abstraction in your mind - whether it be 'will', or 'affect', or 'love', or 'power', or 'qualia', or 'atom', or 'love', 'god' or 'god-particle'...or 'one', 'nil'....
A verb would be more precise, more accurate, because it captures the world's dynamism, but if a noun is what you need to preserve your static certainty then there can be no better noun than "energy," in the Greek sense...εν-εργεια....εν-εργο...in-work, at-work, i.e., in the process of....interactive, dynamic, multiplicity, encompassed by a noetic construct, i.e., an abstraction, represented by a word/symbol that alludes to it but cannot fully reveal it.
At work, in the process....not finalized, not completed, not settled - simplified/generalized in the mind as an abstraction, i.e., idea, ideal given a representative name, a symbol.

Energy that is not always ordered - patterned - but is chaotic, in the true sense of the term, i.e., random, in its interactive dynamism - unpredictable, incomprehensible, unreliable.....
The dark part of existence - the void in our own comprehension; the reason will must be adaptable, adjustable, reactive in real-time.

It is the mark of an imbecile, thoroughly indoctrinated in word-speak, who understands the term "unnatural" to mean "non-existent".
To such a "mindless mind" god=nature, according to Spinoza, and nature=god, ergo that which exists is natural and unnatural is that which does not.
In any dialogue with an Abrahamic mind nothing but confusion can be the outcome, because confusion, and darkness - chaos - is where it finds its salvation, a.k.a., freedom. It will never dare to stray into order and the light.
Its only purpose is to pull all into its nullifying abyss so that its own capitulation is not as shameful.

How words are defined and understood exposes intent.
If the intent is to detach and escape and save oneself from existence, then he defines words accordingly.
If, on the other hand, he wants to engage, to see, to know and to understand he brings his words "down to earth" - a phrase much used but not totally understood.

To start from the ground, the earthly, and work your way up to the divine.
How?
By connecting words/symbols to the apparent, the experienced patterns, as the mind interprets them, and to then estimate their accuracy via the consequences of their application.
Afro-Asiatic charlatans prefer the opposite - which I've defined as a part of nihilism, i.e., the negation, contradiction of the experienced, empirical 'real' world.

Knowledge = Datum, Information - interpretation of patterns - reductions of fluidity into an abstraction, i.e., simplification/generalization.

Understanding = perceiving patterns in the patterns.

Knowledge increases the probability that you may find a pattern in data patterns, but it doesn't guarantee it.
More data - quantity - increases the probability of perceiving patterns that exceed human lifespans and individual perceptual-event-horizons.

3 is the beginning of a pattern; 4 its affirmation; 5 its completion.
See Plato's triadastic conception of psyche as Reason/Will/Pathos, transformed into Christianity's sacred triad representing the one-god - idealization of man, i.e., man made into an abstraction, an absolute - rearranged into Will/Pathos/Reason, corresponding to God/Holy Ghost/Jesus.

Psychologically the triad corresponds to Body/Nervous System/Mind, synthesis, corresponding to past/present-presence/future, i.e., determined (nature)/determining (nurture)/to be determined (ideal, objective).

The attempt to rescue Abrahamism and update it for the coming generations uses language to imply intentionality, when none is required to explain how attraction/repulsion can produce complex unities, like atoms and particles and how it can develop iteration and awareness, to produce life.

They want to imitate the incompatible synthesis of Christianity because they covet tis power over the masses and its longevity - both a consequence of its obscurantism.
In fact Christian ideals cannot be lived, unless one become a monk dependent on the protection and support of others.
Christianity, like all nihilistic dogmas an ideologies that semiotically deny and negate reality, must lie and contradict themselves if they hope to survive in a world they deny relevance to.
They must say one thing, do a second and think a third.
Sinfulness works right in there as the convenient "excuse" admitting that Christians - real living ones - cannot live by their own stated morals and principles but must make amends never able to attain the supernatural, unreal ideal they hold themselves accountable towards.
This is why their saints are always dead. The ones that presumably did live up to Christian ideals are purified in death.

Then they accuse others of failing to live up to their principles to conceal the fact that they are the ones who hold these principles as sacred and universal.

Detaching words form their real-world references is a identifying characteristic of nihilism - no matter what the variant, no matter if it pretends to be secular or spiritual.

By detaching concepts from reality, and maintaining them as ideological abstractions, the nihilist attempts to escape reality and to make the ideal incomprehensible - occult and obscure and untestable, not only unprovable but not threatened by disproof - un-falsifiable.
By defining concepts out of existence they ideological purify them - converting them to other-wroly, and entirely theoretical, of the mind, unsoiled by the body by the tangible. Then the criteria becomes emotional, egoistic and subjective....not requiring evidence but only emotional appeals and power promises and seductive innuendoes.

Let's take god as the word....
Let's detach it from everything real, i.e., everything tangible, experienced, falsifiable, verifiable; everything from within a shared experienced world.

Now we've abstracted it to the point of malleability - an idea entirely of the mind...and the mind can do things the body cannot - no space/time limitations, only imagination, creativity, and nothing besides is the limit.

Like a piece of abstract fart - ahem modern art - it can be anything the observer projects into it.
The fArtist only stimulates, tickles, implies....without any severity because that would inhibit mass participation.
Words associations...words referring to words....ad infinitum...allowing the audience to participate in the creative process - see all inclusivity, collectivism of art - no talent required...nobody is excluded from creating fArt, as the only criterion is mass participation - how many can the fArtist seduce, stimulate, trigger....challenging them would be counter-productive. No perspective is wrong....post-modernity....because there is no clear meaning. All meanings are equally valid.

Let's manufacture a philosophy to accomplish the same...you know on a Christian, or Islamic, or Jewish level of success.
Something that can incorporate the same ideas to recreate Abrahamic global mass effectiveness.
More is more.
No need for integrity, honesty...just emotion, need, the ends justify the means and our end is universal appeal.

Look at how brilliantly Christianity took a concept like "morality" or even "love" ripped it away from its world references and mystified it, idealized it, romanticized it....later to be politicized for mass geopolitical movements to begin.
We can substitute "love" with any equally positive term...to attempt a resurgence of the same mass movements.
Why not "value," or "will," or "logos," or ...something that implies a conscious motive, a universal intent without ever having to justify or define it.
The audience will fill in the blanks, with vague sensations, obscure concepts, and a whole lot of emotional appeals - if the need is large enough nothing can stand in tis way of believing...
Love is blind....means when passion, driven by need/desire is strong no reason, no clarity is required - it is a non-requirement as it would dispel the "magic" of surrendering to the sensations.
When the magic is inevitably dispelled, in time, then we can rationalize all that occurred, after-the-fact, making sure we do not bruise our egos.

Nothing is absurd if the need is great enough. Need trumps all.....and Trump is a narcissist, i.e., hedonism unleashed. If it feels good, it is true; if it feels bad, it is false.
Criterion of the manimal desperately wanting to return to the Garden of Eden, and to un-bite, spit out, the forbidden fruit.

The automatic - physical - gag reflex of disgust is often mistaken for fear by those who cannot tell the difference or who intentionally want to conceal their own fear beneath a show of strength displayed as tolerance for toxins and parasites.

Here we have an example of mind overcompensating for the body's impulses so as to maintain the semblance of control.
Fortunately the body has been placed within quarantined concealment, adorning itself with memetic fabrications, otherwise it would betray the wearer of masks and finery with its honesty.

Our first duty as rational men, is to rescue language from the clutches of parasitical motives.
Not to redefine them according to our personal, subjective, preferences, nor to accord them with some cultural ideological imperative, but to return them to their original role as connectors to an indifferent fluctuating reality, placing the standard for evaluating their accuracy outside all cultural and personal motives.

Such words as morality, human, love, sex, race, can easily be returned to their original utility, and with them we can begin to gradually weave back more abstract terms like freedom, meaning, quality, nobility...
Bottom up thinking.
Anchoring words upon the tangible, the experienced, the falsifiable and independently verifiable, that which is not conditioned by personal preferences and upbringing, reconnecting terms to a world that existed prior to the emergence of men and the invention of language.
If there is any meaning to the phrase "bringing it down to earth" it is this anchoring of linguistics to what precedes and proceeds uninhibited by human contrivances.

It is our duty, as men who wish to live and die with integrity, in this coming Dark Age of decrepitude and degeneracy.

To fully appreciate tesla's insight on "ether", you must etymologically trace back the term to the Greeks, and to Heraclitus.
Only then will you realize why he is superior to Einstein and is the greatest European modern physicist.

Cosmos (ΚΟΣΜΟΣ) - although the exact etymology is uncertain it is most likely a derivative of ΚΟΝΣΜΟΣ, to place in order, to harmonize; ΧΑΘΜΑΣ - to connect to arrange.....ergo ΚΟΣΜΗΜΑ in Greek means Jewelry or adornments, arrangements that beatify.

Magical power of semiotics.

Symbols/words "liberated" from tangible, experiential, references become potential seductive tools for exploiting and manipulating psyches that feel threatened, or disenfranchised, or displeased, with the real world.
When released from the empirical they can be rearranged in seductive sequences, triggering a target psyche's anxieties, and/or seducing its deepest desires, via insinuations and obscurantism.
Deferring and referring to theoretical "authorities" is an important aspect of the mesmerizing process.
What follows is always some kind of extraordinary, supernatural, surreal, reward, promising power or belonging or escape.
Whatever the heart of the "victim" desires.
Reasoning is replaces by emotion, as the defining standard of validation.
Skepticism is quitted when the promise is seductive enough. The most skeptical mind is softened by flattering, empowering, pleasuring, potentials.

Words no longer referring to reality are impotent and useless, but via a victim their utility and potency goes through a proxy's psychology.
Natural parasites enter a host and then infiltrate tis nervous system, gaining control over its motor functions.
This memetic-parsite does so via linguistics, e.g., infiltrating the target's nervous system via an ideology - delivered linguistically - with no utility and no reference to reality - alluding to an occult, secret underlying, or overlaying reality. It gains control of the ego, via this seductive promise of great powers or extraordinary goals.
The target''s state is an important factor, this is why such parasites target the ill, the needy, the troubled, the desperate. They don't target directly but cast aspersions that will trigger the potential victim to seek their aid - the target will go to them for help, for guidance, for clarity...
Once the target has been identified the process is easy.
