[There are three types of infrasovereign religions:

  1. The first could grasp for sovereign power (religioninfrasov) but does not because of its own internal rules (and devotion to a religionsuprasov). These could transition to point 2 by getting around the rules.
  2. The second grasps for sovereign power in order to impose its objectsorganization on all sovereign subjects (religioninfrasov).
  3. The third imposes it objectsorganization, because it belongs an alliance that has grasped sovereign power (religionsov or (infra)sovereign religion).]

An alternate approach is to offer ‘free stuff’ means ‘ with strings attached.

These strings (words) are co-opposed to bondage.]

[Progressive institutions insist on a litany of obligations, expressing what the citizen ought to be. Their demands backed by the sword of the sovereign.

Progressive institutions compete with the family, tribe and religion. They want to be responsible for you (not to you).

They work through words: legal codes, deceptive labels, surveillance, indoctrination, mandatory education, rewriting history, agenda setting, ridicule and ostracism.]
