Well, and that is also an unbelievably effective move on the psychopathic side, because the basic criminal attitude is, and I've dealt with criminal types quite a lot, it's pretty straightforward. It's it's perfectly fine for me to take what you have because you took it. Yeah, that's right. Right, and so Marx has just nailed that perfectly. That's exactly what it is. That's property is theft.
As soon as property is theft, The criminal is the moral agent. And that happened in the Soviet Union, right? Because in the prisons, the criminals were treated as moral agents, whereas the political prisoners were treated as, you know, what would you say? The kinds of heretics who deserve nothing but the longest possible sentence and some death. Right. Because the criminals were victims.

So that libertine offering is an interesting twist. I've been trying to puzzle out. I wrote this article with Jonathan Paggio on the scarlet beast of the apocalypse. And it was really illuminating to me. There's lots of the book of Revelation. I just don't understand me and many other people. But I understand some of it. So the scarlet beast is the degenerate state.

So imagine that when a uniting principle disappears, so that would be the Nietzschean death of God. you get the postmodern condition, which is that there's no uniting narrative. And so the state grows a lot of different heads. It's kind of a hydra now. It's collapsing into chaos, symbolically speaking. It has a lot of different heads because nothing's uniting it.

And that's why it's blood red, because that's a very dangerous condition. It's a fragmenting condition. Okay, so that's the scarlet beast of the degenerate state. This is a symbol of the end of times. And I don't mean... the end of time per se. This is a symbol of how things end, right? Always, always.

Right. I follow you. Okay, fine. So the state deteriorates till it's a multi-headed hydra, okay? But then it has something on its back, and that's the whore of Babylon. Yeah, the mother of all prostitutes. So the idea there is that when the patriarchal state or psyche loses its central function, female sexuality commoditizes.

I won't say her name, but she's become very well known for the absolute outrageousness of her behavior. Her mother is her business manager. It's so awful that you just can't believe it. Okay, so you have this...
