Right, which is another storehouse of value that's been severely parasitized. Okay, so now, so that's two things. There's 5% of the population, oh yes, the dark tetrad types are narcissistic, Machiavellian. So they use language only as a means to manipulate towards instrumental ends. There's no communicative intent. It's all essentially status gaming.

They're psychopathic, and that means they're predatory parasites. And then they had to top it all off with sadism. And I think that's what changed the dark triad to the dark tetrad. I think the reason for that is that if you have a dark triad orientation towards the world. And the world turns against you.

It makes you so angry because you're rejected and unsuccessful that that expresses itself in positive delight in the unnecessary suffering of others. Right? So this is dark material. Now, There's no reason to assume that the cluster B dark tetrad types would do anything other than gravitate towards storehouses of value. First of all, the parasite problem is a very deep problem biologically, right?

It's so deep that some people think sex evolved to solve it. As you mix the genes, it's harder for parasites to move down the generations, right? So that's actually one of the canonical theories for the evolution of sex itself. Why would you take a 50% hit in terms of genetic transmission, when you could just clone yourself.

Well, the parasites can breed, multiply faster than you can, and so they have the upper edge in a lengthy battle. So you mix up the genes, and anyways, the parasite problem is a very old problem. Okay, so I want to add one more thing to that. So imagine that a system of knowledge as a way of representing the world and navigating in it, okay?

So that would be like a scientific theory or an engineering theory, right? And so you might be able to assess that theory on the grounds of objective fact, say. Okay, but then imagine that there's a different form of language game. And that is that you orient yourself with a lot of, you bring a number of people together and you lay out some game rules. They could be religious axioms.

In fact, I think religious axioms are game rules. I think that's the right way to think about it. But it could be political, right? So communism, a pseudo-religion, has game rules, axioms that you have to accept. And so does conservatism. These are games that can integrate a large number of people. Okay, so that's a slightly different function, right? Because now...
