Uncle Joe articulates Clique morality

"The world's weapons are money, fame, and power, that is to say control over others by whatever means. But these are the not the most delicious weapons, the most elegant and fun weapons to wield. These worldly weapons are for those with little imagination, those who are blind to the best weapons ever, who don't even suspect that other weapons exist."

Uncle Joe's riff, (inspired by Thich Nhat Hann's journal). Speaking to the Clique.

"If this audience tended toward sleep, then weapons might seem an inappropriate word for the techniques and resources available to realize the cosmic mandate, but we Clique understand that for the turning of the great golden gear, destruction implies creation, up is down, down is up, round and round. Weapons can create as well as destroy, a corpse is food for fungus, desolation clears the way for new life. We are not confused by dualistic perception, we are unencumbered by a space time morality. We are the architects of an enhanced reality, the engineers responsible for upgrading the mechanism of experience. When the players respawn, the game will be closer to perfection, that is to say we will all be less forgetful of our deep nature."

The Architecture of Doom shows how art transformed the world, helped along by a Clique. How some art was deemed decadent or degenerate because that awareness would lead where? […]
