Theory of mind
On November 11ᵗʰ, 2025, I believe ʾal•Ḥūriyyaẗ led me, through a dream, to published research on Autistic susceptibility to spiritual experiences. The beloved Lady seemingly used my Autism to give me theory of mind.

Demarchy, Sortition, or Lottocracy
I do not favor this system of governance (which goes by all three names), but reading about it is interesting. Here is the file:

Theocracy
I am a sociologist of religion and historian of religions, not a theocrat. But I just completed a compilation of Creative Commons articles and one Creative Commons book on theocracy. Enjoy.

Carl Schmitt
As a Maoist-Third Worldist, and a guy born into a nonpracticing Jewish family, I am certainly not a fan, but I am also an academic scholar. Here is a collection of Creative Commons article and one Creative Commons book on the man and his ideas:

Another addendum to the Manifesto
On the Wire platform, the fascist advocated killing members of certain new religious movements and giving their children to others.

Fascistization: An addition to the Manifesto
Fascistization must be avoided at all costs by Maoist–Third Worldists. We are needed. Unfortunately, it is all too easy to be compromised by fascists. This former Maoist–Third Worldist group failed that test.

Addition to the Manifesto
Suspiciously❟ the individual I have called “the fascist” (to avoid using his name), is the one who proposed the insurrection. Only I objected. I am, to be honest, seriously concerned for the well-being of persons remaining in the group.
