 Haskell monads show us how algebraic morphisms are as intuitive as
 quasiquotation. Thank you Mr. Quine. But these are all just simple

+This power makes them dangerous; for the same reason that computer
+systems control access to programming features (and generally even when
+they shouldn't, i.e. "just in case") the individual's mental system is
+made unavailable to "execute" knowledge in most contexts. To execute the
+knowledge means to incorporate it potentially into the brain's every
+mental structure according to its own internal logic. The internal
+logic of the knowledge!! not the brain.  Of course, to incorporate
+more knowledge requires more TIME than incorporating less knowledge;
+something that affects the brain's every mental structure may take as
+much time to learn as a second language.  And that illustrates the key
+reason why these systems are unavailable: they do not make available
+sufficient time to process.  That, in fact, is the MOTIVATION for
+restricting access in the case of computer systems, denial of service
+being far more common than privilege escalation; this is probably true
+of human systems as well.
+
+Capitalism and school might be seen largely as denial of service attacks
+on their constituent subordinates' ability to process computations
+from sources other than the superordinates.  As long as you can clog
+someone's pipeline enough they spend all their time on processing what
+you give them, you can keep them from seeing enough of the big picture
+to change their phase and thereby destabilizing their connection to
+you. There is the "BITE" model of cult programming, behavior information
+thought and emotion control; institutions in order to fully bind
+individuals only need to control behavior enough to force compliance
+with processing received information, and thought can be disabled by
+increasing the quantity of that information. (This also constitutes a
+denial of emotion in a similar way, setting the state for emotional
+control by selective release etc.)
