[My own inadequacy in understanding how to fulfill God’s laws2a was the ‘something2a’ that held first century common-folk Jews in bondage.
Paul, on the other hand, originally felt that he counted among the elites.
He knew how to fulfill God’s laws:
Persecute the followers of Jesus.]
[In the above examples, what do I desire?
I want to get along.
Therefore, the elites must never be satisfied with me.
They will always be morally superior in order to force me to pretend to desire things that I would never would desire on my own.
I desire to be left alone.
What I do to accomplish that desire validates the values that valorize elite moral superiority.]

All sovereigns are prey for competing infrasovereign religions.
All sovereigns strive to contextualize themselves.
They do so through forced conversion of the ruled populations.
Big Government Liberalism is a state religion composed of an alliance of infrasovereign religions.]

[Just as the regular first-century Jews selected the ‘something2a’ that empowered the Pharisees, many twentieth century Americans vote for ‘something2a’ that denies other people’s rights and properties.
By pretending to be a victim, we get free stuff.
We vote for Progressive representatives to scam easily intimidated common folk (who strive to build wealth).
The very rich folk, however, have different options.
They hire lobbyists.
How character building is that?]
[All political resistance is accused of hating the victims.
The political party of the Progressive elites longs to make the accusation.
The political party of the common folk longs to avoid the accusation.]
[Some American citizens sell their votes to the (infra)sovereign religion or, even more mind boggling, are convinced that the (infra)sovereign religions are on their side.
These are the so-called ‘low information voters’ who vote along tribal affiliation, as if, through elections, one tribe can legitimately subjugate the opposing tribes.
Forget the 10 commandments!]
