“This (...) had made me aware for the first time of the well-disguised myth that they and the academic institutions they represent are bastions of a free exchange of ideas. They are -but only of those ideas that don't 'rock the boat', that refrain from challenging hallowed taboos.”

“No King, No Flag (Naskaristana 2720)
No king, no flag, no scripture, above the human.
No empire, no doctrine, no executive, above the human.
No costume, no convention, no ecclesia, above the human.
No faith, no reason, no paradigm, above the human.
No collar, no creed, no custom, above the human.
No gender, no orientation, no normal, above the human.
No algorithm, no con, no plagiarism, above the human.
No DSM, diagnosis, or hollow Declaration, above the human.
No mosque, no museum, no temple, above the human.
No Rome, no Reich, no Zion, above the human.
No ally, no axis, no mock history, above the human.
No passport, no piety, no Promise, above the human.
Human constructs must enhance humanity, not cripple it.
Moment a construct turns against the spirit of humanity,
it must be repaired or rejected to prevent further malice.”
