# 🧠 Philosophy's Scientific Missteps 🔍 **Anti-realism** dominated 20th-century philosophy, creating a dangerous disconnect between philosophical thinking and scientific progress. From 🧪 **positivism** to 🌀 **postmodernism**, philosophers increasingly rejected the existence of objective reality, treating scientific theories as mere "narratives" with no special claim to truth. This rejection of explanatory knowledge created a harmful methodology of separating scientific theories from their explanations about reality—as if predictions could somehow stand alone without understanding the underlying phenomena. The consequences appear in fields like psychology, where 📊 **explanationless science** produces technically correct but meaningless measurements that entrench existing biases and stifle knowledge growth. True scientific advancement requires embracing 💡 **explanatory theories** that engage with objective reality rather than merely collecting data or making predictions without understanding.

# 🧮 Counting Errors and Credibility 🔍 **Measurement errors** in scientific experiments can lead to false claims of extraordinary phenomena when researchers fail to provide adequate 🧩 **explanations** for their observations. The text illustrates this through a thought experiment where sloppy counting of museum visitors creates apparent "teleportation" or "destruction" of people—technically true statements that mislead through careful definition manipulation. Without robust 🛡️ **error detection** mechanisms grounded in explanatory theories, scientific work becomes unstable as exciting but false results overwhelm accurate ones. This problem extends beyond simple mistakes to encompass deeper issues of 🔮 **bad philosophy** that denies progress and rejects explanations in favor of pure instrumentalism. The fundamental weakness of 📊 **explanationless science** is its vulnerability to self-deception and its inability to distinguish genuine discoveries from mundane errors.

# 🗳️ Democracy's Paradoxical Math 🧩 **Apportionment paradoxes** reveal fundamental mathematical limitations in creating perfectly fair voting systems, as proven by Balinski and Young's powerful no-go theorem. 🤔 **Arrow's theorem** demonstrates that no decision-making system can simultaneously satisfy all basic rationality requirements, challenging the very concept of "the will of the people." 📊 **Proportional representation** systems, despite aiming for fairness, ironically grant disproportionate power to third parties who often become kingmakers. The flaw in social-choice theory lies in viewing decision-making as merely selecting from fixed options rather than recognizing it as a 🔍 **creative problem-solving process** where explanations are evaluated, not just weighed. True rational decision-making involves creating new options through conjecture and criticism, not merely calculating weighted averages of existing alternatives.

# 🔄 Democratic Decision-Making Reimagined 🗳️ **Democratic systems** should be evaluated not by how fairly they represent voters but by how effectively they facilitate the removal of bad policies and rulers without violence. The traditional focus on proportional representation misses the crucial point that 🧠 **rational decision-making** requires creating new options rather than merely selecting from existing ones. 🏛️ **Plurality voting** systems excel because they expose winning explanations to criticism and testing while making politicians directly accountable for their choices. The purpose of democracy isn't to synthesize a collective "will of society" (which Arrow's theorem proves mathematically impossible) but to create an environment where 💡 **new ideas** can be proposed, tested, and rejected. Political progress happens when societies converge on objective truths through this error-correcting process, gradually building consensus on fundamental values while maintaining healthy disagreement about emerging issues.

# 🌸 Beauty's Objective Reality 🔍 **Objective beauty** exists beyond cultural relativism, personal preference, or biological predisposition, functioning as a universal language that transcends species boundaries. The remarkable fact that humans find 🌺 **flowers beautiful** reveals this objectivity—flowers evolved to attract insects through complex, hard-to-forge visual signals that embody objective beauty rather than merely parochial attractiveness. Unlike purely functional attraction (like gravity) or cultural preferences (like fashion), true aesthetic appreciation involves 🧠 **knowledge creation** that parallels scientific discovery, where artists like Beethoven pursue standards that aren't arbitrary but objectively better. The creative processes in both 🎨 **art** and 🔬 **science** share striking similarities—both involve searching for fundamental truths through elegance and explanation, both add something irreducibly new to the world. This connection between beauty and truth suggests that aesthetic judgments can be as objective as mathematical proofs, even without being deducible from physical facts.

# 🧠 Universal Beauty Across Gaps 🌸 **Objective beauty** exists alongside species-specific aesthetics, serving as a bridge across the vast knowledge gaps between individual humans. Just as flowers evolved to signal across species boundaries, humans create art to communicate across minds containing more information than entire genomes. 🎨 **Pure art** seeks universal truths through good explanations, while 🛠️ **applied art** addresses practical problems through more parochial beauty. The pursuit of objective beauty enables unlimited progress, transcending the finite constraints of genetic and cultural programming. Future artistic evolution promises mind-boggling possibilities—new unifications, designed senses, and forms of beauty currently inconceivable—paralleling the infinite potential of scientific knowledge creation.

# 🧠 Meme Evolution Dynamics 🔄 **Memes** exist in alternating forms—as brain memories and expressed behaviors—unlike genes which exist solely as DNA. This dual-form existence subjects memes to intense selection pressures, requiring them to survive translation between forms while competing against rival ideas. In 🏛️ **static societies**, successful memes contain implicit knowledge for disabling human creativity and critical thinking, ensuring their faithful replication across generations. These societies remain unchanging on human-noticeable timescales because their dominant memes have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to prevent innovation. The 🌊 **evolutionary pressure** pushes memes toward causing finely-tuned compulsions rather than general damage, as they must preserve enough of their hosts' functionality to ensure continued transmission. Our 🚀 **dynamic society** represents a historical anomaly—the only civilization that has sustained noticeable change for multiple generations.

# 🧠 Dynamic Knowledge Evolution 🔄 **Static societies** survive by ruthlessly suppressing creative variation, forcing their members to sacrifice individual fulfillment for societal stasis. When these societies inevitably collapse, they typically descend into raw violence rather than progress. The Western civilization uniquely broke this pattern through the emergence of 🌱 **rational memes** - ideas that replicate through their genuine usefulness and truthfulness rather than by disabling critical thinking. Unlike 🔒 **anti-rational memes** that evolve away from truth, rational memes evolve toward deeper truths because they survive diverse criticism across changing circumstances. The 💡 **Enlightenment** began this transition, creating unprecedented progress in science and politics, though our society remains in an unstable transitional state with both types of memes coexisting. This explains why we simultaneously embrace reason while unconsciously perpetuating irrational behaviors through gender stereotypes, fashion conformity, and educational practices that discourage true critical thinking.

# 🧠 Meme Evolution Dynamics 🔄 **Memes** exist in two forms—mental representations and behaviors—and follow two fundamental replication strategies: rational memes that enhance critical thinking and anti-rational memes that suppress it. These competing forces shape human **cultures** and determine whether societies become 🏛️ **static** (dominated by anti-rational memes that crush creativity) or 🚀 **dynamic** (driven by rational memes that enable progress). Western civilization currently exists in an unstable transition between these states, moving from static societies where creativity was suppressed toward a potentially stable dynamic society. 🔍 **Creativity** evolved in humans despite puzzlingly slow prehistoric innovation rates, suggesting our ancestors used creative capacity primarily for conformity rather than progress. The transmission of memes involves far more than simple imitation—it requires complex theory-building to interpret which aspects of behavior to replicate and how to apply them in new contexts. 🌱 Recognizing the distinction between rational and anti-rational memes is essential for nurturing the "beginning of infinity" that enables unbounded human progress.

# 🧠 Memes Through Creativity 🔍 **Human meme replication** fundamentally differs from animal imitation by relying on our ability to create explanatory knowledge rather than merely copying behaviors. While 🦜 **parrots** blindly reproduce sounds and 🦍 **apes** parse behaviors into recognizable elements, humans seek to understand the underlying **meaning** behind actions. This creative process—forming conjectures, criticizing them, and testing them—enables us to acquire complex ideas without directly observing their content. Remarkably, human 🌱 **creativity** evolved not primarily for innovation but for better meme acquisition in static societies, where understanding others' expectations required explanatory knowledge. The emergence of universal creativity represents a profound 🚀 **jump to universality**, transforming a species of apes into beings capable of explaining and controlling the universe.

# 🔄 Creativity's Evolutionary Trap 🧠 **Human creativity** evolved specifically to preserve existing knowledge (memes) rather than to generate new ideas, creating a paradoxical evolutionary trap. This mechanism transformed what should have been humanity's greatest asset into the very force that maintained 🔒 **static societies** for hundreds of thousands of years, preventing progress despite our innate capacity for innovation. The horror of these societies wasn't merely their stagnation but how they actively thwarted improvement, turning human striving against itself in a "superhumanly evil mechanism." Only with the 💡 **Enlightenment** did humanity finally begin breaking free from this trap, shifting creativity's purpose from preservation to innovation. This transformation represents the true "beginning of infinity" - the reassignment of our creative powers from maintaining stasis to generating the endless frontier of new knowledge.

# 🧠 Ideas Shape History 🌍 **Human history** isn't determined by geography, resources, or biogeography, but by the power of 🔍 **ideas** and our capacity to solve problems. The author dismantles deterministic theories like Diamond's "Guns, Germs, and Steel," showing how civilizations rise or fall based on their ability to generate new knowledge and overcome challenges. 🏝️ **Easter Island** collapsed not because of resource depletion alone, but because its static society couldn't solve emerging problems. 🌱 **Sustainability** represents a fundamentally flawed approach—no lifestyle can be truly sustainable because problems are inevitable. The only viable path forward is through continuous 💡 **progress** and maintaining societies that excel at correcting mistakes, not through futile attempts to prevent all future problems.

# 🔍 Sustainable Progress Paradox 🌱 **Sustainability** as traditionally conceived is a dangerous illusion that would lock humanity into stagnation and eventual catastrophe. True sustainability comes not from preserving current systems but from embracing an 🔄 **open-ended journey** of knowledge creation and problem-solving. 🧠 **Scientific advancement** and 💰 **wealth creation** are essential for addressing both foreseeable challenges like climate change and unforeseeable future crises. The text rejects both 🔮 **prophecy-based planning** and the fallacy that we're "nearly there" in our understanding of fundamental knowledge. Instead, human progress moves from 🧩 **problems to better problems**, with each generation building upon previous discoveries in an infinite sequence of improvement—the true beginning of infinity.

# 🧠 Ambiguity vs. Truth 🔍 **Ambiguity** exists in two distinct forms: the richness of multiple valid interpretations versus the emptiness of deliberate vagueness and contradiction. This distinction reveals how 🚫 **bad philosophy** wrongly equates all knowledge as equally subjective, while dismissing the possibility of objective truth. John Horgan's pessimistic view that science has reached its "end" fundamentally misunderstands the 🌌 **cosmological revolution** currently unfolding, where dark energy, quantum gravity, and infinite space present profound new frontiers. The text dismantles several flawed reasoning patterns—including anthropic arguments, simulation theories, and doomsday predictions—while affirming that 🚀 **human potential** remains unlimited. Rather than facing a technological "Singularity" that transcends human capability, we stand at the threshold of ♾️ **infinite knowledge growth** where universal minds will continue to expand understanding without fundamental limits.

# 🌌 Infinity's Beckoning Horizon 🔮 **Prediction** becomes impossible beyond certain horizons, yet the universe remains fundamentally **explicable** through good explanations. The laws of physics make sense, higher levels of emergence exist, and profound abstractions are accessible to human understanding. Our world contains both remarkable **knowledge** and profound **mystery**, much like Eratosthenes who could measure the Earth accurately while recognizing how much remained unknown. 🧠 **Creativity** and 🔍 **criticism** represent the only thinking methods capable of making progress or surviving long-term. What lies ahead is inevitably infinity—we merely choose whether it will be an infinity of ignorance or knowledge, wrong or right, death or life.

# 🧠 Knowledge Exploration Dynamics 🔍 **Knowledge creation** thrives through a continuous stream of **explanations** that are hard to vary, reaching beyond immediate observations to reveal deeper truths. The **multiverse** interpretation of quantum theory illuminates how fungible particles exist in multiple histories simultaneously, challenging our intuitive understanding of reality. 🌱 **Memes** evolve through creative replication processes, with rational memes enabling progress while anti-rational ones can trap societies in static patterns. The 🌟 **optimistic** worldview recognizes that problems are soluble through knowledge creation, rejecting both blind optimism and pessimism in favor of critical rationalism that embraces our infinite potential for discovery.

# 🧠 Physics Fundamentals Explored 🌌 **Physics** encompasses a rich tapestry of interconnected concepts from quantum theory to cosmology, revealing both counter-intuitive realities and mathematical elegance. The discipline balances between 🔍 **deterministic laws** that govern our universe and the fascinating unpredictability introduced by quantum mechanics. 🧮 **Computation** emerges as a crucial bridge between abstract mathematical concepts and physical reality, helping us navigate complex phenomena from elementary particles to cosmic structures. The text reveals how our 📚 **scientific progress** depends on embracing both testable predictions and deeper explanations, moving beyond mere instrumentalism toward genuine understanding of reality's fundamental nature.

# 🧠 Capitalism and Schizophrenia 🌊 **Deleuze and Guattari's Anti-Oedipus** launches a powerful assault against psychoanalysis and its Oedipal framework, challenging how desire is conceptualized and controlled. The text positions 🔄 **desiring-production** as revolutionary, flowing freely against the constraints of capitalism and psychoanalytic repression. Through concepts like 🧩 **desiring-machines**, 🌐 **body without organs**, and 💢 **schizophrenia as process**, the authors reveal how social systems code and territorialize human desire. This groundbreaking work exposes the 👑 **fascism** lurking in everyday thinking and offers a radical ethics for living non-fascist lives. The book ultimately presents a 🗺️ **schizoanalytic** alternative that liberates desire from familial triangulation and reconnects it to social and political reality.

# 🧠 Fascism Within Us 🔍 **Fascism** lurks not just in historical regimes but as psychological elements within each person, manifesting through our unconscious desires for repression and control. Deleuze and Guattari's "schizoanalysis" offers a radical alternative to psychoanalysis by examining how 💔 **desire** becomes channeled into repressive social structures. Their approach celebrates 🌊 **deterritorialized flows** that escape Oedipal coding, rejecting the ego-centered, family-bound interpretations of traditional analysis. The revolutionary path requires 🔓 **collective liberation** from internalized power structures, forming "subject-groups" whose desires produce new social arrangements rather than reinforcing existing hierarchies. This politics of 🌱 **desire** connects individuals to productive machines of the universe, replacing neurotic dependencies with mutual self-care and genuine connection.

# 🔄 Desiring-Machines Unleashed 💭 **Desiring-production** forms the fundamental reality of human existence, where everything becomes part of an endless productive cycle—consumption and recording are simply forms of production themselves. The relationship between 🧠 **man** and 🌿 **nature** dissolves into a single productive reality where neither has meaning outside their interconnection. 🔌 **Machines** constantly couple with other machines in binary relationships, creating flows that are interrupted by other machines in an infinite series of connections. The 🫥 **body without organs** emerges as the site of antiproduction, a smooth surface that resists the organization imposed by desiring-machines while remaining essential to the productive process. This tension between productive machines and nonproductive stasis drives the schizophrenic experience, revealing desire as the immanent principle of all material reality.

# 🤖 Body Without Organs 💫 **Capital** functions as a full body without organs, appropriating all production and presenting itself as the miraculous source from which everything emanates. This **socius** (whether earth, tyrant, or capital) forms a recording surface that falls back on (se rabat sur) productive forces, claiming both the whole and parts of the process as its own power. The 🧩 **schizophrenic process** creates its own recording code through fluid 🔄 **disjunctive syntheses** that resist Oedipal triangulation, allowing the subject to wander across the body without organs. This strange 👤 **subject** exists only peripherally to desiring-machines, defined by the share of production it takes for itself as reward or becoming. The 🌀 **celibate machine** emerges as a reconciliation between desiring-machines and the body without organs, producing the subject as residuum alongside a conjunctive synthesis of consumption.

# 🤖 Desiring-Machines Unleashed 💭 **Desire** functions not as lack but as productive force, generating 🌊 **intensive quantities** that flow through the 🧠 **body without organs**. The schizophrenic experience reveals these pure intensities—not as hallucinations or deliriums but as primary emotional states where one becomes multiple identities, passing through various degrees of intensity. Traditional psychiatry misunderstands this process by reducing it to ego dysfunction, while a truly 🔬 **materialist psychiatry** recognizes desire as productive mechanism. The 🔄 **celibate machine** liberates unlimited forces through this production, challenging the Oedipal framework that buries the unconscious beneath idealistic representation rather than acknowledging its factory-like nature.

# 🔄 Desire as Production 💫 **Desire** functions as a productive force that creates reality, not as an expression of lack or absence. The 🏭 **desiring-machines** operate identically to social machines, differing only in regime rather than nature—both are fundamentally the same apparatus of production. While 💰 **capitalism** decodes and deterritorializes flows, creating conditions that approach schizophrenia, other social systems code desire through different mechanisms. 🧠 **Unconscious production** directly invests the social field without mediation, challenging the false separation between fantasy and reality. This perspective explains why people might desire their own repression, as Reich questioned, revealing how 🔗 **social production** and desiring-production form a single integrated system rather than parallel but separate domains.

# 🤖 Capitalism's Schizophrenic Machine 💰 **Capitalism** produces an immense schizophrenic energy through its simultaneous processes of 🌊 **deterritorialization** (decoding flows) and 🧱 **reterritorialization** (artificial recoding). This tension creates the schizophrenic as capitalism's ultimate product—someone who reaches the system's furthest limits by scrambling all codes and wandering through deterritorialized spaces. 🔄 **Desiring-machines** function through three types of breaks: connective breaks that slice into flows, disjunctive breaks that detach heterogeneous fragments, and conjunctive breaks that produce subjects alongside machines. These machines aren't metaphorical but real systems of 🔀 **production** that operate through continuous processes of interruption and connection, creating a complex code that resembles a polyvocal jargon rather than a unified language. The schizophrenic process reveals capitalism's inherent contradictions—constantly approaching its own limits while simultaneously working to avoid them.

# 🧩 Fragmented Wholeness 🔄 **Multiplicity** exists beyond traditional notions of unity and totality, embracing productive breaks, disjunctions, and fragments that relate through their differences rather than similarities. The 🧠 **desiring-production** process operates through partial objects that connect in non-hierarchical assemblages, resisting any attempt to be unified into a predetermined whole. 🌀 **Peripheral totalities** emerge alongside these fragments—not totalizing them but adding to them as new fabricated parts, exemplified in Proust's literary machine where asymmetrical sections create unexpected connections. This perspective directly challenges 👪 **Oedipal interpretations** of desire, which artificially constrain the free-flowing nature of desiring-machines by forcing them into familial triangulations. The child's experience extends far beyond parental relationships into a metaphysical exploration of existence through connections with partial objects and machines of desire.

# 🔍 Oedipal Imperialism Exposed 🏛️ **Psychoanalysis** imposes the Oedipal structure as a universal dogma, forcing complex human desires into a restrictive familial triangle. This represents a profound betrayal of Freud's initial discovery of the 🔄 **productive unconscious** - a realm of free syntheses, endless connections, and creative desire-machines. By elevating Oedipus to theoretical dominance, psychoanalysis transforms the unconscious from a vibrant 🏭 **factory** of desire into a mere 🎭 **theater** of representation, crushing the revolutionary potential of desiring-production. The 🔗 **schizophrenic experience** stands as the enemy of this Oedipal regime, revealing the possibility of desire that refuses familial reduction and connects directly with social and historical forces. 💔 Psychoanalytic practice ultimately serves bourgeois repression by keeping humanity harnessed to the "daddy-mommy-me" triangle rather than liberating authentic desire.

# 🔍 Desire Beyond Oedipus 💔 **Castration** and 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 **Oedipalization** represent psychoanalysis's fundamental misunderstanding of the unconscious, which knows nothing of lack but operates through positive, productive 🌊 **flows** and connections. The traditional Freudian approach artificially reduces the rich landscape of 🔥 **desire** to familial triangulation, forcing complex social investments into restrictive individual fantasies. 🧩 **Group fantasy**, by contrast, plugs directly into the social field, creating revolutionary potential by connecting partial objects and drives without the mediation of the ego. This distinction reveals how psychoanalytic treatment often creates the very dependencies it claims to resolve, trapping patients in interminable analyses where 💰 **economic exchanges** reinforce power imbalances rather than liberating desire's creative force.

# 🔄 Desire Beyond Oedipus 💭 **Desiring-production** flows naturally resist the rigid triangulation of 👪 **Oedipal structures** imposed by psychoanalytic practice. The 🌊 **flows of libido** continuously break through Oedipal boundaries, revealing that our fundamental nature is more 🧩 **schizoid** and 🔄 **polymorphous** than psychoanalysis admits. When psychoanalysis forces desire into Oedipal frameworks, it performs a 🔒 **conversion** that transforms free-flowing partial objects into fixed, complete objects defined by lack. This creates an artificial 🚧 **triangulation** (3+1) where the transcendent phallus becomes the organizing principle that restricts desire's natural multiplicity. The true liberation of desire requires recognizing its inherently 🌈 **anoedipal sexuality** - connections that cannot be reduced to familial representations or biunivocal pairings.

# 🧩 Disjunctive Synthesis Unleashed 🔄 **Disjunctive synthesis** operates in two opposing modes: the restrictive Oedipal use ("either/or") that traps desire in triangulation, and the schizophrenic inclusive use ("either...or...or") that affirms all terms simultaneously across distances. The 🔒 **Oedipal apparatus** functions as a "double bind," forcing subjects to choose between neurotic identification and normative internalization while threatening them with the undifferentiated if they refuse. In contrast, 🌊 **schizophrenic recording** liberates a nonrestrictive genealogical material where subjects can situate themselves in all branches at once, becoming "trans-alivedead, trans-parentchild." 🔬 **Schizoanalysis** emerges as the revolutionary practice that seeks to de-oedipalize the unconscious, not by resolving Oedipus but by reaching beyond it to the orphan unconscious where such problems cannot even be raised.

# 🌀 Double Impasse of Desire 💭 **Desire** exists in a perpetual tension between the real **machinic elements** of production and the structural myths that attempt to contain it. The 🔄 **conjunctive synthesis** creates an intensive field where identities dissolve into becomings—where subjects pass through races, cultures, historical figures, and genders without truly identifying with any. When schizophrenics engage with 🌍 **history** and 👥 **politics**, they don't merely hallucinate but connect with reality's beating heart through intensive quantities that transcend representation. 🏥 **Psychoanalysis** repeatedly fails by reducing this rich historical-political content to an Oedipal drama, forcing rebellious desire back into the family triangle. The true question isn't whether familial determinations play a role, but whether they constitute the primary organizing force behind desire's revolutionary potential.

# 🧠 Oedipus Unmasked 🔍 **Schizophrenia** exists beyond the Oedipal framework, yet psychoanalysis persists in forcing patients into familial triangulations that crush 🌊 **desiring-production**. The family operates not as a closed microcosm but as a fragmented, "eccentric" entity constantly broken by 🌍 **socio-historical forces** that directly connect to the unconscious. When examining mental states, the 👪 **family** merely functions as an indifferent inductor rather than an organizer, with true psychic organization emerging from elsewhere. The 💥 **revolutionary potential** of the unconscious lies in its ability to invest directly in social and political realities without familial mediation. 🔄 **Schizoanalysis** aims to dismantle the artificial Oedipal unconscious to reach the immediate productive unconscious that connects directly with historical and political forces.

# 🔄 Oedipal Entrapment Unveiled 🔍 **Familialism** traps the unconscious in a closed system where everything is interpreted through the lens of parental relations, creating a false beginning that serves ideological purposes. The 👪 **Oedipal operation** reduces complex social and historical forces to simplistic family dynamics, displacing the true boundary between molecular desire and molar organization. This process performs a crucial function for 🏛️ **social control** by converting revolutionary potential into neurotic stability, ensuring subjects remain within acceptable territories rather than exploring schizophrenic creativity. 💔 **Libidinal investments** in social and political spheres operate beneath ideology, explaining how desire can be manipulated to support repressive systems and how revolutionary potential exists in breaking free from 🧩 **biunivocal relations** imposed by Oedipal structures.

# 🎭 Oedipal Illusion Unmasked 🔍 **Psychoanalysis** traps the unconscious in a false framework by imposing the 🏛️ **Oedipal structure** as an ideological form rather than recognizing desire's productive nature. The 🌊 **unconscious** operates as a desiring-machine that produces reality through connections, disjunctions, and conjunctions—not as a theater of familial representation. 🧩 **Schizoanalysis** offers liberation by restoring the immanent use of unconscious syntheses, challenging the three fundamental errors about desire: lack, law, and signifier. The 📜 **law** performs a clever trick by prohibiting something fictitious (incestuous desire) to make subjects believe they harbored such intentions, creating a paralogism of displacement. 🔓 **De-oedipalizing** the unconscious means reconnecting with its productive, molecular, and material nature rather than submitting to the transcendent interpretations that crush its revolutionary potential.

# 🧠 Desire's Revolutionary Essence 🔍 **Psychic repression** serves as a tool of 🏛️ **social repression**, creating a distorted image of desire as an Oedipal complex to neutralize its revolutionary potential. The family functions as a delegated agent, transforming the free-flowing 🌊 **desiring-production** into a confined familial drama of incestuous drives. This clever displacement operation creates a 🪞 **distorting mirror** that shames desire into denying itself for "civilization's interests." 🔥 **Desire** is inherently revolutionary—not because it wants to sleep with the mother, but because any position of real desire threatens established social hierarchies and exploitation. The 🧩 **Oedipal framework** isn't something psychoanalysis discovered but rather reinforced, channeling the unconscious into predetermined transcendent syntheses that serve existing power structures.

# 🌀 Reality's Fragile Boundaries 🧠 **Schizophrenia** emerges not from an inherent Oedipal failure but from the violent imposition of Oedipal structures on those who cannot tolerate such rigid familial triangulation. The family functions as a system that 🔒 **captures** and 🔄 **reorganizes** desiring-production, forcing vibrant, nomadic flows into restrictive channels while rejecting elements that refuse containment. This creates a fundamental tension between two forces: the 🏠 **familial recording** that seeks to appropriate desire versus the ⚡ **desiring-machines** that constantly threaten to overflow these boundaries. Rather than viewing psychosis as extra-Oedipal and neurosis as intra-Oedipal, both conditions reflect different responses to the same underlying process—the conflict between 🌊 **desiring-production** and 🔗 **social reproduction**. The schizophrenic process represents desire functioning at its limit, carrying decoded flows across thresholds that society desperately maintains.

# 🧠 Madness as Breakthrough 🌊 **Madness** represents not merely breakdown but potential **breakthrough** - a shattering of walls that can liberate extraordinary creative forces. True **sanity** requires dissolving the normal ego, while our culture's "pseudo-sanity" merely reinforces alienation and conformity. 🎨 Artists like Turner and Artaud demonstrate how **schizophrenic processes** can pierce through established codes, creating revolutionary flows that escape societal control. The text contrasts three responses to society's limiting walls: 🔄 **neurosis** (accepting limitations while creating a small personal territory), 🎭 **perversion** (creating artificial alternatives), and ⚡ **psychosis** (violently confronting the wall). Literature becomes truly powerful when it functions as a **desiring-machine** that decodes flows and shatters signifiers rather than reinforcing social order.

# 🔄 Inscription Over Exchange 💫 **Primitive societies** operate through a system of 🖋️ **inscription** rather than exchange, where marking bodies and coding flows takes precedence over circulation. The 🧩 **territorial machine** functions by tattooing, scarifying, and initiating bodies, creating a collective investment of organs that connects desire directly to social production. 🔀 **Alliance** and 🌳 **filiation** work together as complementary forces, forming an open cycle where economic and political factors determine kinship relations rather than the reverse. This system generates 💎 **surplus value of code** through deliberate imbalances and debts that bind communities together, completely unlike modern societies where organs have been 🔒 **privatized** and flows rendered abstract, leading to the Oedipal structure that haunts our social organization.

# 🔄 Primitive Social Machines 💫 **Primitive societies** function through deliberate **disequilibrium**, not as stable systems but as dynamic machines that operate through misfirings and ruptures. The 🔄 **segmentary territorial machine** works by coding flows and organizing alliances and filiations that distribute power while preventing its concentration. These societies aren't outside history but actively resist 💰 **decoded flows** that would dissolve their social codes—the very flows that capitalism later embraces. The 🌍 **full body of the earth** serves as an inscription surface where intensive filiations and extensive alliances are recorded, creating a biosocial system that manages desire through complex sign systems. This machinery operates through controlled dysfunction, constantly regenerating itself through the very crises it produces, sensing and warding off the imperial forces that would eventually overcode it.

# 🌀 Intensive Flows vs. Social Order 🔄 **Intensive flows** of desire exist beneath the structured world of persons and relationships, representing a primal energy that social systems must control. The 🚫 **incest prohibition** doesn't block something that was initially desired, but rather creates the very categories (mother, sister, father) that make incest conceivable while simultaneously rendering it impossible. This prohibition functions as a coding mechanism that transforms the 🌊 **germinal flux** (intensive, nonpersonal desire) into an organized system of 👪 **extended filiations** and 🤝 **lateral alliances**. The Oedipal complex emerges not as the repressed desire itself but as the 🪞 **displaced representation** that social repression projects onto desire, tricking it into believing "that's what you wanted!" Through this process, society transforms the threatening, uncoded flows of desire into manageable social structures.

# 🌍 Desire Beyond Oedipus 🔍 **Oedipalization** emerges not as a universal structure but as a colonial imposition that reduces complex social investments to simplified family triangles. The primitive territorial machine operates through alliances and filiations where family members function as more than just father, mother, or sister—they form components of a social field that cannot be reduced to familial reproduction. 🏥 **Primitive cures** demonstrate effective schizoanalysis by directly plugging into social organization rather than projecting onto a "symbolic void of the father." 🔗 **Colonization** forces Oedipus onto indigenous peoples by severing their connections to broader social structures and confining them to restrictive family units. 🧠 **Desire** fundamentally invests the social field directly, without passing through Oedipal representations, making the repressed not an Oedipal image but rather the revolutionary potential of desiring-production itself.

# 🔄 Symbolic Triangulation Reimagined 🧩 **Symbolic triangulation** exists beyond the individuals who embody it, yet remains trapped within narrow familial frameworks despite claims of transcendence. The endless "daddy or mommy" debates between culturalists and orthodox psychoanalysts merely oscillate between two poles of the same familialized axis, never escaping Oedipus's gravitational pull. 🌊 **Oedipus** functions as a displaced limit—universal not because it's inherent to desire, but because it represents what all societies fear: decoded flows of desire threatening established orders. 🔍 The true conflict between ethnology and psychoanalysis isn't about recognizing the unconscious, but about fundamentally different questions: psychoanalysis asks "what does it mean?" while ethnology asks "what purpose does it serve?" 🛠️ The unconscious doesn't speak or represent—it engineers **desiring-machines** that function within social machines.

# 🔮 Desire Beyond Exchange 💫 **Desire** operates through complex systems of inscription rather than simple exchange, challenging traditional anthropological views that prioritize exchange as the foundation of social relations. The primitive socius functions through a system of **marking bodies** and creating **debt**, where alliance-debt articulates with filiation to form territorial representation. 🔄 **Social machines** and 🧠 **desiring-machines** interact in varying degrees of affinity, with desire flowing through molecular connections rather than being contained within molar familial structures. 📝 **Inscription** serves as the primary process—not exchange—creating a three-part system of voice-audition, hand-graphics, and eye-pain that forms a "savage triangle" of territorial representation. This perspective reveals sexuality not as a familial energy but as molecular forces connecting partial objects across social fields, undermining the Oedipal framework that psychoanalysis imposes on desire.

# 🔄 Debt and Social Inscription 💰 **Debt** functions as the fundamental organizing principle of primitive societies, not exchange as traditionally assumed. Nietzsche's analysis reveals how the primitive **social body** operates through a system of 🖋️ **inscription** where pain, marking, and memory create finite blocks of debt that constitute human subjects capable of alliance. This system undergoes radical transformation with the arrival of the 👑 **despotic State**, which establishes a new alliance and direct filiation, converting finite debts into infinite obligations. The 🏙️ **barbarian machine** deterritorializes the earth, overcodes primitive codes, and centralizes surplus value through a transcendent unity that doesn't replace but subjugates the old territorial system. Money emerges not primarily for commerce but as an instrument of State control, rendering debt infinite and establishing permanent service to the sovereign power.

# 🏛️ Imperial Overcoding Machine 🔄 **Overcoding** emerges as the essential operation of the despotic State, which appropriates all forces of production while allowing old territorial inscriptions to persist as "bricks" on a new surface. The 👑 **despot** performs a double incest—marrying sister and mother—not as liberation but as a powerful mechanism to overcode all flows and establish direct filiation with deity. This transformation fundamentally alters the 📝 **representation system**: graphism loses its independence from voice, becoming subordinated writing that simultaneously dominates through linearization. The 🔍 **magic triangle** of voice-graphism-eye flattens as territorial representation gives way to imperial representation, creating a transcendent object outside the chain—a crucial step toward the Oedipal structure. Through these mechanisms, the State functions as a 🧱 **unifying machine** that integrates autonomous communities while extracting surplus value through new systems of debt and servitude.

# 🏛️ Despotic Signifier Unleashed 💬 **Language** transforms radically under despotic regimes, shifting from territorial signs to a transcendent **signifier** that dominates all meaning. The 👑 **despot** establishes a new order where writing becomes the first deterritorialized flow—a sacred fluid sometimes literally consumed by subjects seeking connection to power. This system replaces the horizontal networks of primitive societies with vertical hierarchies where all signs flow from a single source. The 🔄 **overcoding** process culminates in royal **incest**, which functions as the ultimate representation of power by attaching all organs and desires to the despot's body. When this system eventually collapses, it gives way to 📜 **law** that initially operates not as protection against tyranny but as the juridical form of infinite debt—a vengeful mechanism that crushes freedom and makes passivity the primary virtue of subjects.

# 🏛️ State Power Dynamics 🔄 **Despotic power** transforms through history, appearing as the primordial Urstaat that haunts all subsequent political formations. The original imperial machine establishes a system where 🔗 **desire** becomes institutionalized through law, creating mechanisms of 😔 **ressentiment** and latency that persist across civilizations. Though appearing to evolve through different historical stages—primitive, feudal, capitalist, socialist—the State fundamentally maintains its essential character as a 🧠 **cerebral abstraction** that organizes society. Even when seemingly overthrown, the despotic model resurfaces in new guises, whether as democracy or modern totalitarianism, always more 🥶 **calculating** and hypocritical than before, proving that "there has never been but one State."

# 🔄 Desire's Paradoxical Machine 💭 **Desire** operates as the fundamental force driving both 🏛️ **State formation** and 🌊 **capitalism's emergence** through complex processes of coding, overcoding, and decoding flows. The 👑 **despotic State** initially territorializes desire through overcoding, while 💰 **capitalism** emerges through the contingent conjunction of decoded flows—deterritorialized workers meeting decoded money. This conjunction transforms 💸 **surplus value of code** into 📈 **surplus value of flux**, establishing capital as a filiative rather than alliance-based force. The capitalist machine functions through a profound 🎭 **cynicism** paired with strange 🙏 **piety**, creating a system where money simultaneously exists as impotent exchange signs for workers and powerful differential quotients of production for capitalists. This duality enables capitalism to capture desire itself, turning even resistance into fuel for its perpetual motion.

# 💰 Capital's Infinite Flow 💸 **Capitalism** operates through a dual system of monetary flows, creating an unbridgeable gap between labor value and enterprise value that cannot be measured by the same units. This economic machine constantly pushes against its own limits, not by reaching external boundaries but by continually displacing and reconstituting internal ones through strategic 🔄 **deterritorialization**. The system generates both human and 🤖 **machinic surplus value**, with scientific and technical innovations absorbed into the capitalist axiomatic only when they promise increased profits. Most critically, capitalism embeds 🛑 **antiproduction** within production itself—creating artificial scarcity amid abundance and injecting stupidity amid knowledge—through mechanisms like militarism, bureaucracy, and advertising that simultaneously absorb surplus value and ensure system integration.

# 💰 Capitalism's Schizophrenic Flows 💱 **Capitalism** operates through two incommensurable aspects of money: the creative flux (bank-created credit) and the reflux (purchasing power distributed as income). This dual system generates a profound economic **schizophrenia** where profits flow alongside wages without technically "robbing" anyone, creating a system where people simultaneously desire both strength and impotence. 🔄 The **deterritorialization of flows** represents capitalism's revolutionary potential, as it breaks down traditional codes and signifiers, replacing them with nonsignifying signs, points-signs, and figure-breaks that operate like electric language or computer processing. 🧠 This process parallels **schizophrenia** itself—both involve decoded flows that escape fixed identity and traditional representation. Yet capitalism constantly arrests these schizophrenic processes, transforming potential revolutionaries into confined clinical entities, recognizing in them the image of its own death coming from within. 🔮 The revolutionary path may not be withdrawal from the market but accelerating the process of decoding and deterritorialization beyond capitalism's self-imposed limits.

# 💰 Capitalism's Schizophrenic Limits 💼 **Capitalism** operates through an economic **axiomatic** that replaces social codes with abstract quantification, constantly pushing against its own limits while preventing their complete dissolution. The system's fundamental tension exists between its tendency toward complete 🌊 **deterritorialization** of flows (schizophrenia) and its simultaneous need to capture and control these flows through new axioms. Unlike previous social systems that relied on qualitative codes and extraeconomic factors, capitalism functions through direct economic power, transforming everything into abstract quantities while maintaining the 🏦 **State** as regulator of decoded flows. This creates a paradoxical system that both has and doesn't have limits—continually expanding by adding new axioms whenever threatened, absorbing resistance, and privatizing the public sphere while maintaining its essential structure. 🔄 **Schizophrenia** thus represents capitalism's absolute external limit, its "difference, divergence and death" that it must constantly exorcise to survive.

# 🔄 Class Dynamics Under Capitalism 💰 **Capitalism** operates through a continuous cycle of 🌊 **decoding flows** and then 🏞️ **reterritorializing** them in new forms. The bourgeoisie emerged as the first true class by leading the struggle against codes, merging with the generalized decoding of flows while simultaneously creating an unprecedented form of 🔗 **subjugation**. This system establishes a paradoxical dynamic where there is technically only one class, yet creates a theoretical opposition between those who serve the capitalist machine and those who sabotage it. Modern societies constantly oscillate between two poles: the 👑 **despotic Urstaat** they attempt to resurrect through various forms of control, and the 🌀 **unfettered flows** that threaten to carry them beyond their limits. This tension explains why capitalism (and socialism) continuously produces both reactionary archaisms and revolutionary potentials.

# 🔄 Capitalism's Oedipal Machine 💰 **Capitalism** transforms the relationship between social production and desiring-production by privatizing the family and removing it from the social field, only to reapply the entire social field to it. Unlike earlier social formations where family was integrated into social reproduction, capitalism creates a separation where private persons become mere simulacra of social images—"Mister Capital, Madame Earth, and their child the Worker." 🏠 The **Oedipal triangle** emerges as capitalism's internal limit, channeling decoded flows into the father-mother-child formation that neutralizes schizophrenia (capitalism's external limit). 🔍 This process flattens all social images onto familial ones, creating the "daddy-mommy-me" structure that becomes the center of each person's world. 🧠 **Bad conscience** develops as the correlate to social cynicism, with desire now equated to castration and lack, completing capitalism's psychological colonization of the individual.

# 🧠 Desire's Territorial Struggle 🏠 **Familialism** represents psychoanalysis's fundamental betrayal of its own revolutionary potential by reducing the vast landscape of 🌊 **desire** to the confined territory of the Oedipal triangle. Freud's genius discovery of sexuality was immediately compromised by channeling it through family dynamics, transforming potential liberation into internalized guilt. The 🔄 **schizo-revolutionary** pole stands in opposition to the 🏛️ **paranoiac-fascist** pole, representing two fundamentally different ways desire invests in the social field. While paranoia organizes masses into large molar aggregates, schizophrenia follows molecular lines of escape that resist territorialization. The family never determines these investments but is itself determined by them, serving merely as an intermediary in the communication of unconscious forces that are fundamentally social, economic, and political in nature.

# 🧩 Molecular Desire Machines 🔄 **Desiring-machines** operate at the molecular level, forming the fundamental building blocks of both organic and social structures. Unlike molar machines that function through statistical aggregates and structural unity, molecular machines exist in a realm of 🌊 **multiplicities** where formation and function are inseparable. The relationship between these two domains isn't metaphorical but material—the body without organs serves as the frontier between molecular phenomena and molar organizations. Butler's insight reveals that neither mechanism nor vitalism adequately explains this relationship, as machines contain living elements and organisms contain mechanical parts in a 🔄 **continuous flow** of interconnection. This molecular unconscious works through 🧬 **code surplus values**, creating direct links between desire and machines where desire isn't in the subject but the machine is in desire.

# 🧠 Molecular Desire Unleashed 💞 **Desire** operates as a molecular force that directly invests social and organic fields, connecting flows across both micro and macro scales. The 🔄 **libido** functions as the specific energy of desiring-machines, flowing through both intimate relationships and vast social structures without requiring desexualization or sublimation. Traditional psychoanalysis mistakenly reduces sexuality to familial representations and castration myths, imposing an 🚫 **anthropomorphic** view that traps desire in lack and belief. 🌊 **Schizoanalysis** liberates desire from these constraints, recognizing it as productive machinery generating "n sexes" beyond binary limitations. This perspective reveals how capitalism and psychoanalysis both divert desire's revolutionary potential by channeling it into representation rather than acknowledging its fundamentally productive nature.

# 🎭 Desire Beyond Representation 💭 **Desiring-machines** operate beneath social structures, connecting the unconscious directly to 🏭 **production** rather than representation. Psychoanalysis both discovers and betrays this connection—initially revealing desire as a productive force (like Ricardo discovering abstract labor), then re-trapping it within 👪 **familial representation**. This tension mirrors capitalism's fundamental contradiction: it liberates 🌊 **decoded flows** of desire only to recapture them through 🔒 **private property** and artificial reterritorializations. The 🎪 **theatrical model** of psychoanalysis transforms productive unconscious forces into mere images and representations, replacing the revolutionary potential of desire with the confined space of Oedipal drama.

# 🎭 Theater of the Unconscious 🧠 **Representation** transforms from objective to subjective when it loses consistency, requiring a **structural framework** to determine relationships between subjects and objects. The 🎭 **theater** becomes a model for production, reducing the dynamic reality of **desiring-production** to a static representational space marked by 🕳️ **lack** and castration. This theatrical model forces the 🔧 **machines of desire** behind an impassible limit while elevating the 👨‍👩‍👧 **family relation** to a universal metaphor. 🔄 **Psychoanalysis** perpetuates this system, replacing the broken family with the analyst's couch, making the analytic situation inherently incestuous. The alternative path—**schizoanalysis**—destroys these structures to liberate desire's productive capacity, recognizing the unconscious not as figurative or symbolic but as machinic and productive.

# 🌊 Flows of Desire Unleashed 🔄 **Deterritorialization** represents the radical escape of desire from established structures, while 🏰 **reterritorialization** captures these flows back into representational systems like Oedipus and castration. The 🧠 **unconscious** isn't filled with hidden content to interpret but consists of productive desiring-machines constantly breaking free from social constraints. 🔍 **Schizoanalysis** works to destroy these representational traps, following the "machinic indices" that point toward liberation rather than reinforcing neurotic territories. The schizophrenic process creates new pathways beyond established circuits, though it constantly risks being interrupted and recaptured by family, asylum, or artificial structures. True 🔓 **liberation** requires a political psychiatry that supports deterritorialization across all flows—labor, knowledge, art—rather than isolating it as "madness."

# 🧩 Desiring-Machines Unleashed 🌊 **Desiring-machines** operate through dispersed **partial objects** that connect without unification, forming molecular multiplicities rather than molar structures. The 🏜️ **body without organs** serves not as their opposition but as their immanent substance—a surface where these machines function through passive syntheses of connection, disjunction, and conjunction. Unlike rigid 🔒 **codes** that capture and territorialize, the molecular chain of desire works as a 🔓 **decoding** force that deterritorializes flows and scrambles established meanings. 💉 **Schizoanalysis** discovers these machines by examining their functional operations rather than interpreting them, revealing desire's revolutionary potential beyond the 🖼️ **representational** frameworks of psychoanalysis and its Oedipal constraints. When liberated from molar organizations, these machines create new possibilities that point toward a world formed through its own deterritorialization.

# 🔄 Desiring-Machines and Death 💀 **Death** exists not as opposition to life but as integral component within the cyclical functioning of 🧠 **desiring-machines**. The body without organs (immobile motor) and working organs coexist as different parts of the same machine, constantly converting the death model into lived experience through intensive becomings. While psychoanalysis under Freud tragically transformed this understanding into a transcendent "death instinct" that turns against life, the true nature of death remains immanent and productive. 🔄 **Capitalism** exploits this relationship by absorbing death into its system, creating an axiomatic where antiproduction mixes with productive forces. 🌊 The revolutionary potential lies in recognizing how desire functions as decoded flow—not as lack or frustration requiring Oedipal coding, but as a generative force capable of creating new connections and possibilities.

# 🧠 Desire's Dual Machinery 💥 **Desiring-production** and 🏛️ **social production** share an identity in nature yet operate under fundamentally different regimes, creating a catastrophic tension at society's core. The 🔄 **schizophrenic process** represents not merely escape from social constraints but revolutionary potential—the ability to make molecular forces disrupt molar formations. 🌊 **Flows of desire** are never simply personal but always social investments, operating at both conscious and unconscious levels. 🛠️ **Schizoanalysis** works as a mechanical practice rather than interpretation, dismantling repressive structures to liberate desire's productive capacity. The revolutionary question isn't ideological but organizational: how desire becomes channeled into either liberating or fascistic social formations.

# 💰 Desire's Social Machine 🔄 **Libidinal investment** shapes our social reality by directing our interests and aims, yet operates at an unconscious level beneath our awareness. The 🏭 **social machine** captures our desire through a paradoxical mechanism where even the oppressed passionately invest in systems that exploit them—not merely through ideology but through the raw economics of desire itself. 🧠 **Revolutionary potential** exists in two distinct dimensions: preconscious investments concerning new social aims versus unconscious libidinal investments that may remain reactionary despite progressive intentions. 🔍 **Schizoanalysis** reveals how sexuality serves as an index of our social investments, with our intimate relationships reflecting broader political positions that remain hidden beneath Oedipal coding and repression. The challenge lies in liberating desire from structured hierarchies to create genuine "subject-groups" where desire flows freely rather than remaining trapped in repressive "subjugated groups."

# 🔍 Class Struggle in Desire 💔 **Libidinal investments** flow beyond family boundaries, directly engaging with social and economic forces rather than being confined to Oedipal dynamics. The 💰 **economic situation** - not parental relationships - forms the primary target of desire, with family merely serving as a secondary application point. 🏭 **Social production** and 🧠 **desiring-production** operate simultaneously, making the family a reactive rather than causative force in psychic development. Traditional psychoanalysis 🔒 **imprisons** desire within familial frameworks, forcing complex social investments into reductive Oedipal patterns while ignoring how desire naturally flows toward class differences, economic dependencies, and non-familial relationships. This misunderstanding extends to psychiatry and even antipsychiatry, which continue treating the family as both cause and cure rather than recognizing the primacy of socioeconomic forces in shaping desire.

# 🧠 Liberating Desire's Flow 🔄 **Schizoanalysis** dismantles the rigid structures of ego and identity, freeing the vibrant flows of desire trapped within social and psychological constraints. The process involves breaking through walls separating us from authentic **desiring-production**, challenging the 🏢 **social machines** that transform breakthrough potential into breakdown reality. Two opposing poles of libidinal investment exist: the 🔒 **paranoiac pole** that enslaves desire to molar aggregates and social codes (including Oedipus), and the ⚡ **schizoid revolutionary pole** that follows lines of escape and deterritorialization. This liberation isn't merely psychological but profoundly political—when desire flows freely, it threatens established power structures by revealing their fundamental irrationality. 🎨 **Art** demonstrates this revolutionary potential when it breaks codes and hierarchies, allowing desire to create new connections beyond social control.

# 🎭 Art's Revolutionary Potential 🔄 **Aesthetic formations** oscillate between two poles: a 🔒 **reactionary investment** that enslaves art to sovereign machines, and a 🌊 **schizorevolutionary** force that liberates pure creative process. The reactionary pole produces 🏛️ **paranoiac-Oedipal** art that interrupts flow, enforces structure, and serves capital's interests, while the revolutionary pole generates 💫 **decoded flows** that experiment without aim or end. This tension exists not only in art but in 🧪 **science** and all social formations, where libidinal investments either reinforce existing power or create ruptures that overthrow established orders. The revolutionary potential emerges not through calculated causality but through 🌋 **desire's irruption** - a collective desert crossing that reveals the other side of the social body.

# 🌀 Revolutionary Desire Unleashed 💥 **Desire** functions as a revolutionary force capable of undermining capitalism by creating **schizophrenic breaks** in established social orders. These breaks—unpredictable moments when "everything is possible"—emerge from desire without aim or cause, flowing beyond the controlling **axiomatics** of capitalist society. 🔄 **Schizoanalysis** contrasts with psychoanalysis by focusing on the productive, material, and molecular nature of the unconscious rather than symbolic or Oedipal interpretations. The revolutionary potential lies not in becoming schizophrenic but in the 🌊 **deterritorialized flows** that escape social control and connect 🔧 **desiring-machines** with social and technical machines. This connection forms the basis for genuine revolution—not through predetermined political programs but through the liberation of desire's productive process that can transform the entire social field.
