Let us consider an individual. Let us say that this person has no occupation, that they have no duties currently within society outside of studying and pursuing an education, that all they're concerned with, at the moment, is the pursuit of a higher pedigree of thinking and articulation. Let us also envision that there is a tight job market and that competition is stiff and everyone is racing towards being hired. Now this student will receive financial aid, which can help with things like rent and groceries and internet and phone. However, there exists, fundamentally, a problem: the student is a wrongthinker, an outspoken adherent towards a philosophy antagonistic, and revolutionarily reconstructive, against the mainframe system. How does one destroy such a person?
The answer is simple, in terms of crudeness: target economics. With no system outside of dependency, any particular will fall apart, unless there exists an extension of cooperative entanglement. When we take a step back, analyzing what this reveals about structures of power, we can coin the matter of economics as, rather, the valuation systems which allow empowerment and progression. If we take a step back even further, we can then understand that every single system exists in this tension state of allotment and dislocation qua valuation systems. Therefore, to disrupt any system, the valuation paradigms within their structure has to be disjointed. Any particular system can be disregarded, deconstructed, and reconstructed, given this holistic and transformative antagonism.
Thus, to create a system of devaluation, one must create or inject devaluation into conditions which provide stability. The stabilization of an object fundamentally depends upon its ability to sustain against decay. Remove the values which separate decay from progress and one subverts, and therefore can reconstitute, the object within a subject-object relation. Just take a look around our current world. Our species celebrates endless feasts consisting of the slaying of animals with numerous sacrifices to infinite deities but shies away from legislating the deaths of legislators and CEOs who fuck up society. Would culling CEOs or their relevant networks of codependents be a sacrifice for the Deities of society and the Gods of humanity?
Such a question is formulated as extremism and radicalism because its principles disrupt the system: CEOs, their relevant networks, run our society, aligned with governmental agencies, in an attempt to further only a select few, while poisoning the rest of humanity with endless metals and toxins in our food and air and in our vaccines, getting children to cut off their genitals by saying it's progress, subverting media to push ugliness and atrocious man-bear-things over celebrations of fullness and curviness, promoting the destruction of statues, and periodically killing humans whose technologies threaten the system; indeed, our entire society itself is a fucked up shithole where the so-called "elite" purposefully create and perpetuate conditions by which other individuals must suffer. It's in the very structure of our human society; even the mainstream world religions, which preach any sort of apocalypse, view the world as needing to be cleansed and eradicated with potentially billions upon billions dead with all their thoughts, arts, productions, actions, erased and evaporated, to be nothing but dust carried by the eternal wind.
Thus, we can conclude, that any system which exists has values which perpetuate the continuance of direction; but what inherent meaning does a rock contain, one asks. The answer is likewise as simple: the field of potential in which meaning can manifest. Thus, a rock exists but can also become something even greater or even more banal, and more ruinous and regarded as baneful. Even in the perspectives of relations between a subject and an object exists a system of values; outside of the perspectives, it is the field of potential in which it can be utilized. Value is not simply, we can now fully see, visual or aesthetic; value is functionary and foundational.
