    Kinda crazy how a work whose core message is about how language can be weapbonised to make certain ideas impossible to express has had its symbols weaponised by the ruling hegemony to stamp out competing ideas.

    The way the cultural hegemony assimilates counter-cultural works proves more than anything that the superstructure is built upon the base. So long as the capitalists control the means of communication, real rebellion against their ideas can only be temporary.
