it is. it is about bullying and blustering and standing over and thumping and banging and asserting your own ends and treating others as merely means to your ends and not respecting their own ends, at all.
and there is this idea that everyone must do their time... everyone must do their time of being subjugated. of subjugating themselves to the ends of another. must serve them. and then one day they will be granted freedom and slaves of their own.
only... that's not a a very nice game. and that's not a very nice reason to have kids or students or people in your care.
but that's the game, here. so...
they would rather i work on some meaningless and anal and totally irrelevant project about... nothing. just because someone has the power to make me do that. someone can read what i write and go 'no no no!' and 'reference that!' and 'find references for the opposite view!' and so on... and i'll have to spend my time doing what they say because they say. and they'll say what they say because they can.
and that's a good plan for GDP.
