Dream Zanarkand is a giant aeon somewhere in the ocean, a real location that you could find with some luck. On the timeline, Jecht gets picked up by last generations Sin after venturing too far from Zanarkand. Sin patrols the oceans scooping up anyone who gets too close to or too far from Zanarkand

When you have a dream, cause and effect can get jumbled. Your dream self might know something it shouldn't or events might occur with a specific goal in mind instead of the natural semi random way. Share this dream with multiple people, and you start checking each others' work.

I think the cultural consciousness of the Fayth agreed upon some important bits of their experiences- a blitzball game, a house fire, a mayoral election. And then subconsciously filled in the gaps from there. Each person in the gagazet fayth contains memories of dozens of people they knew throughout their life times. They might not know every inner working of their friends and families lives but between hundreds of people making guesses, you can get convincing facsimiles. They just know that in order for there to be a blitzball game there must be a team that must have players that must have grown up that must have eaten to live

A simpler example- several aeons have hair. This hair moves across their bodies and blows in the wind. The Fayth probably isn't directing every strand individually, it's just being effected by the environment. The Zanarkand aeon is just a lot of hair

From The Two Towers - Chapter II: The Riders of Rohan
Only Legolas still slept lightly as ever, his feet hardly seeming to press on the grass. Leaving no footprints as he passed; but in the waybread of the Elves he found all the sustenance that he needed, and he could sleep, if sleep it could be called by Men, resting his mind in the strange paths of elvish dreams, even as he walked open-eyed in the light of this world.

From The Two Towers - Chapter V: The White Rider
With that he fell asleep. Legolas already lay motionless, his fair hands folded upon his breast, his eyes unclosed, blending living night and deep dream, as is the way with Elves.

"
In nearly all of their literary manifestations, Elves are described as being a “Dying Race,” in inevitable decline or exceedingly low population. According to this tradition, the Elves represent the best of the world, but they are extremely vulnerable and prone to extinction.

But again you will ask, what does this have to do with the idea of White fragility? White fragility is a very similar dynamic to what we call Fragile Masculinity – when a person with social privilege is confronted with accusations of racism or racial insensitivity, they will frequently lash out, emotionally shut down, or refuse to engage in reasoned discussion. Even passive feelings of defensiveness are manifestations of this phenomenon.

This defensiveness happens when something we (consciously or not) consider to be of exceptional importance to our sense of reality is called into question (I say we because I myself am White and I am in no way exempt from this cultural conditioning, and I expect many of my readers will also be White). Whiteness is deeply reliant on these unquestionable assumptions in order to construct itself. And one of the defining traits of Whiteness is its obsession with its own vulnerability.

Elves, as imagined in most modern high fantasy literature, map almost perfectly onto this model. It is no accident that the Elves of high culture, of magnificent wisdom, of immense grace and power, are nearly always portrayed as light-skinned. It is also no coincidence that Elves are the classic example of the “Dying Race.” These tropes exist because of the explicit and subconscious understanding that this is the situation of the so-called White Race. White Supremacists have for centuries raised the specter of a hypothetical White extinction in order to galvanize repression of people of color worldwide. You can see it today when politicians and pundits talk about the declining birth rate among White people in the United States and Europe, immigration fears, and the idea that the United States will soon no longer be majority White. This is presented as something to be dreaded, the loss of something essential to society. Exactly the same rhetoric was behind anti-miscegenation laws and continued bigotry against interracial couples.

This is the way the ideology of White Supremacy operates – it hides in plain sight in popular culture, its very pervasiveness rendering it invisible to the untrained eye. Its unquestioned presence in our society leads us to accept it as simply the Way Things Are. White people, reflected in the literary creations the Elves, have convinced ourselves on some level that we are at the same time superior to people of color but also on the brink of total destruction. This is the core assumption and worldview that White people are falling back on when we react defensively to discussions about racial injustice and racism. And we need to fight it.

Acknowledging the problem is the first step. White readers, always be alert for the ways these tropes are playing out in the words and images you absorb each day. Think critically about the stories you grew up with and how they shaped the way you understand the world. Remember that one of the universal literary flaws of the Elves is their pride and arrogance, and let humility guide the way you approach discussions about race. Those small steps alone will help us to begin to resist the White fragility we have had ingrained into us from early childhood.



Author’s note: I chose to capitalize the word “White” because of some advice I received years ago – capitalizing racial terms emphasizes the fact of their existence *as racial terms*, forcing people to confront the discomfort that induces.

Historian Barbara Yorke, who specializes in the subject,[8] has similarly argued that the earlier self-governance oriented Anglo-Saxonism of Thomas Jefferson's era had by the mid-19th century developed into "a belief in racial superiority".[9]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Kingsley

"

Anglo-Saxonism
edit

Kingsley was a fervent Anglo-Saxonist,[18] and was seen as a major proponent of the ideology, particularly in the 1840s.[19] He proposed that the English people were "essentially a Teutonic race, blood-kin to the Germans, Dutch, Scandinavians".[20] Kingsley suggested there was a "strong Norse element in Teutonism and Anglo-Saxonism".

Mixing mythology and Christianity, he blended Protestantism as it was practised at the time with the Old Norse religion, saying that the Church of England was "wonderfully and mysteriously fitted for the souls of a free Norse-Saxon race". He believed the ancestors of Anglo-Saxons, Norse and Germanic peoples had physically fought beside the god Odin, and that the British monarchy was genetically descended from the god.[21]
Dislike of the Irish
edit

Kingsley has been accused of intensely antagonistic views of the Irish,[16] whom he described in derogatory terms.[22][23]

Visiting County Sligo in Ireland, he wrote a letter to his wife from Markree Castle in 1860: "I am haunted by the human chimpanzees I saw along that hundred miles of horrible country [Ireland]... [for] to see white chimpanzees is dreadful; if they were black, one would not see it so much, but their skins, except where tanned by exposure, are as white as ours."[24][25]

It's worth noting that this phenomenon was broadly present throughout Europe. As nation-states

tried to more sharply define national identity during the 19th century they frequently pulled deep from their history to do so (to an extent of misrepresenting or even fictionalizing it). So the French for instance would more heavily pull on their "Gaelic" heritage and subsequent romanization despite the "Franks" themselves being essentially a more recent splinter from the main Germanic group.

In that context references to an "Anglo-Saxon" heritage was simultaneously a way to differentiate Britain from the mainland and their upper classes Norman heritage
as well as reinforce English supremacy amongst their Celtic subjects (Ireland, Scotland, Wales).

I don’t think it has as much to do with actual ethnic heritage as it did with class and racial struggles between established, ethnically English persons in places like Boston and New York during the waves of immigration in the 19th and early 20th centuries. WASP became a pejorative for the image of wealthy, ascot-wearing people who were legacies at Ivy League universities because their families built their wealth in the 1830s and summered in posh places while the lower classes worked in factories.

Anglo-Saxon is still used as a term for the original Old English-derived vocabulary within the modern English language, in contrast to vocabulary derived from Old Norse and French. In the 19th century, the term Anglo-Saxon was broadly used in philology, and is sometimes so used at present, though the term 'Old English' is more commonly used for the language.

Throughout the history of Anglo-Saxon studies, different historical narratives about the post Roman people of Britain and Ireland have been used to justify contemporary ideologies. In the early Middle Ages, the views of Geoffrey of Monmouth, best known for Historia Regum Britanniae which helped popularise the legend of King Arthur, produced a personally inspired (and largely fictitious) history that was not challenged for some 500 years.[225] In the Reformation, Christians looking to establish an independent English church reinterpreted Anglo-Saxon Christianity.[citation needed]

During the Victorian era, writers such as Robert Knox, James Anthony Froude, Charles Kingsley and Edward A. Freeman used the term Anglo-Saxon to justify colonialistic imperialism, claiming that Anglo-Saxon heritage was superior to those held by colonised peoples, which justified efforts to "civilise" them.[226][227] Similar racist ideas were advocated in the 19th-century United States by Samuel George Morton and George Fitzhugh.[228] The historian Catherine Hills contends that these views have influenced how versions of early English history are embedded in the sub-conscious of certain people and are "re-emerging in school textbooks and television programmes and still very congenial to some strands of political thinking."[229]

The term Anglo-Saxon is sometimes used to refer to a broader group of peoples descended or associated in some way with the English ethnic group, in ways which go beyond language, and often involve ideas about religion. In contemporary Anglophone cultures outside Britain for example, "Anglo-Saxon" ancestry and culture is sometimes contrasted with Irish ancestry and culture, which was once subject to negative stereotyping and bigotry. "White Anglo-Saxon Protestant" (WASP) is a derogatory term especially popular in the United States that refers chiefly to long-established wealthy families with mostly English, but also sometimes Scottish, Dutch or German ancestors. As such, WASP is not a historical label or a precise ethnological term but rather a reference to contemporary family-based political, financial and cultural power, e.g. The Boston Brahmin.

The term Anglo-Saxon is becoming increasingly controversial among some scholars, especially those in America, for its modern politicised nature and adoption by the far-right. In 2019, the International Society of Anglo-Saxonists changed their name to the International Society for the Study of Early Medieval England, in recognition of this controversy.[230]

The Russian government under Vladimir Putin and Russian state-run media often use "Anglo-Saxon" as a derogatory term referring to English-speaking countries, particularly the United States and United Kingdom.[231][232][233] According to the BBC, the UK and US are especially referred to by the term because they are perceived as "particularly die-hard adversaries of Russia."[234]

They keep getting new waves that make it so their obsessing with one particular group is silly, especially when it is some ruling class group that was foreign in the first place, the whole thing is weird and pathetic.

Thanks to British mangling of things, even Pakistan had a secret gen*c*de really because of the population transfer, which changed the demographics very drastically and introduced a foreign population to the Indus region that had similar ethnic groups that were related but forced to move away into India, the whole thing would start to make the original people there a minority, it was totally a genocide that no one talks about because of the way it occurred, but any mass population replacement, especially in an extremely short period of time, is that.

The United Nations first defined genocide in 1948 in the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. The treaty outlines five acts that can constitute genocide if they are done "with the intent to destroy an ethnic, national, racial or religious group":

1. Killing members of the group

2. Causing serious bodily or mental harm

3. Deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about the group's physical destruction in whole or in part

4. Imposing measures intended to prevent births

5. Forcibly transferring children

To qualify as genocide, the actions must be done with intent to eliminate an entire group of people. Without provable intent, a group or individual can still be guilty of "crimes against humanity" or "ethnic cleansing" but not genocide.

Tribunals have historically struggled to establish a legal standard for genocidal intent. Few perpetrators, with the notable exception of the Nazi regime, have left explicit plans detailing their intentions to eradicate groups.
"

"
The first person found guilty of genocide was the former mayor of Rwanda's Taba commune in 1998. The International Genocide Tribunal on Rwanda found Jean-Paul Akayesu guilty because "he knew or should have known that the act committed would destroy, in whole or in part, a group."

The name Daʾay (also transliterated as Dai, Arabic: دأي) is mentioned in the annals of the Assyrian king Sennacherib (705–681 BCE). It refers to one of the deities whose statues were captured from the Arabian city of Dumat al-Jandal (ancient Adummatu).
According to the Assyrian inscriptions, Sennacherib launched a campaign into the northern Arabian deserts and conquered the "fortress of the Arabs" at Adummatu. He took several Arabian gods as booty and carried them off to the Assyrian capital of Nineveh. The list of captured deities included:
ʿAttaršamīn
Daʾay
Nuhay
Ruḍaw
Abīrīl
ʿAttarqurumā
The statues of some of these gods, including Daʾay, were later returned to the oasis city of Dumat al-Jandal by Sennacherib's successor, King Esarhaddon (680–669 BCE), to secure the loyalty of the local Arab population.

Meanwhile, the people went ahead and openly burned, maimed, shot, and crushed, as well as starved, poisoed, and deprived of necessities and medical care, do causing numerous deaths, all manner of babies and children and women, in one of the most heinous live air mass murder extravaganzas that the entire world population was made to know about, so something completely unprecedented in all human history, just to laugh at how impotent and helpless the rest of humanity was to do anything about this level of cruelty, while allowed to wag their filthy f*cking hypocritical and blood stained fingers at those limply saying it should stop and doesn't seem right, besting, shooting, and imprisoning them for saying a word and putting them on watch lists, and now people shepherded by the elite controlled news media have forgotten and are just ignoring what is still going on and just happened, and are on to new things. They just did supposedly the most heinous things over and over and are still doing it! "We can't get anywhere talking about it, we'll just be called haters for speaking up".

If this book is associated with this ideology, and indeed I see similar sentiments of ethnicity based g*nocide in it, while they accuse the Qur'an of such things when that is a lie and there is no such sentiment actually present in it as compared to the only true book of literal and specific ethnic supremacism and genocide in history apparently, then how can I see what is going on in modernity and is directly being touted as the justification for the ideology and is being acted out with references said by those comitting thecatrocities to be just like they are reliving their cultural book even if they are defying it in every other way as often homosexual or at least sodomistic r*post atheists:



Always destroying the parameters of words and expanding definitions to make words meaningless.



Yeah, because weird can mean threat, and this can be seen as a threat in at least a few ways, since people want there to be fidelity and trust and a singular monopoly on resources and attention and affection and intimacy, and why should people become so blind as to not see why and why this has generally been something not typically done by most peers on an equal standing.

All this has to do with the fairness of contracts, what is being asked, what is being given, and the availability of such.

Even the hatred of the people who are openly despicable and were historically so also, was because of their unfairness, like sparing their in-group from extrs charges and making harsher demands on the majority out-group is wickedness to this day, which many opposed, yet now it has become ubiquitous as a policy to exploit and terrorize the poor at the exclusive benefit of the rich by these kinds of practices, which they also often spare each other from in their special dealings and benefits, playing the masses for fools and taking advantage of their ignorance, goodwill, need, and weakness to do anything about it.

Omg, this was the origin of Austin Powers, and they just stole it from Martin Short and made it like Mike Meyers thought of it, and they are both Canadians and Mike Meyers is the younger person who just took the character and performance and barely tweaked it. This kind of theft and plagiarism where the thief profits hugely afterwards is so frequent in media since the early days of film and television, and probably theatre before it, but it seems so embarassing to do such a thing, besides rude and dishonorable.











https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptomnesia

"
Cryptomnesia occurs when a forgotten memory returns without it being recognized as such by the subject, who believes it is something new and original. It is a memory bias whereby a person may falsely recall generating a thought, an idea, a tune, a name, or a joke;[1] they are not deliberately engaging in plagiarism, but are experiencing a memory as if it were a new inspiration.

Cryptomnesia was first documented in 1874. The earliest case involved medium Stainton Moses, who thought he was communicating with spirits but unknowingly repeated details he had previously read in a newspaper. The term was coined by psychiatrist Théodore Flournoy while studying medium Hélène Smith, highlighting how forgotten memories can resurface distorted by imagination. Psychologists like Carl Jung, Sigmund Freud, and Jacques Lacan further explored the concept, linking it to subconscious memory retrieval, creativity, and self-misrecognition. Jung analyzed Friedrich Nietzsche's writings, suggesting his use of previously encountered material was likely unintentional.

Experimental research has demonstrated cryptomnesia's prevalence. In one of the first studies, participants took turns generating examples within categories and were later asked to produce new, unique ones. Between 3% and 9% inadvertently repeated others' ideas or misattributed them to themselves, a finding replicated in word puzzles, brainstorming sessions, and similar tasks. Cryptomnesia is more likely when cognitive load impairs source monitoring — people are less able to recall where an idea originated and may unconsciously claim it as their own. Jung noted that this process often drives creativity: authors may write something they believe to be original, only to later discover its similarity to previously encountered works.

Numerous famous cases illustrate cryptomnesia's impact. Nietzsche unknowingly reproduced passages from a book he had read in his youth, while Lord Byron's Manfred showed striking parallels to Goethe's Faust, which Byron claimed never to have read. Helen Keller inadvertently borrowed from a story read to her years earlier, leading to accusations of plagiarism that deeply affected her. Musicians like George Harrison faced legal consequences for subconscious copying, as seen in the "My Sweet Lord" copyright case, while Aerosmith's Steven Tyler once failed to recognize his own band’s song on the radio. Authors such as Robert Louis Stevenson, Colleen McCullough, and Umberto Eco have all reported similar experiences.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kleptocracy

It is a cultural thing no doubt, in the culture of the predatory rich or those fighting tooth and nail to climb on and over the work of others, it is the same as what many complain about now regarding A.I.

"
Kleptocracy is different from plutocracy (rule by the richest) and oligarchy (rule by a small elite). In a kleptocracy, corrupt politicians enrich themselves secretly outside the rule of law, through kickbacks, bribes, and special favors from lobbyists and corporations, or they simply direct state funds to themselves and their associates. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the first use in English occurs in the publication Indicator of 1819: "Titular ornaments, common to Spanish kleptocracy."

‘Old Corruption’ referred to the system of highly paid government offices, pensions, sinecure positions, and income streams secured by members of the British aristocracy and upper classes during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The phenomenon was an all-pervasive feature of British upper class life in this period. The term was famously used by William Cobbett (1763- 1835), the radical reformer and enemy of the British aristocracy (Rubinstein 1983, Harling 1995)[1][2]. Probably the most important characteristic of ‘Old Corruption’ was that it was a parasitical but entirely legal system. Despite its name, it was not comparable to what is traditionally regarded as ‘corruption’ today: illegal or at the very least unethical abuses of office such as bribery, embezzlement, fraud.
