    –Q: Curt: “What is the most painful truth you found so far?”–
    Personally I hold women on a pedesetal and I like it that way. Women have been profoundly beneficial to me as an individual. My mother, grandmothers, wives, girlfriends have all radically improved my life – possibly because I’m enough on the spectrum to need their intuitions and insights and so I appreciate them.
    So, the most painful thing I’ve learned is the unregulated nature of women. They cannot self regulate and so need external regulation which is one of the reasons they gravitate first to child-rearing if they have them, else they gravitate to conformity, and especially conformity to ‘ mean girls’. So without older women to constrain mean girls it spreads to other women and creates this self fulfilling disaster. I mean, men know these things about each other, but must self regulate because we’re physically dangerous, but women only feel them and so can’t regulate them as easily. And that is necessary because if they THOUGHT about children rather then felt them we’d have gone extinct a long time ago.
    The other painful truth is a more general understanding that the human language facility and the grammar (protocol) of language gives us the impression we are more similar than we are. So just because someone can speak doesn’t mean they’re much smarter than domesticated pets so to speak, and that has been frightening for me.
    Because that means almost two thirds of the planet isn’t really competent without really well formed and managed institutions. It means almost two thirds of the planet isn’t really competent without really well formed and managed institutions.
    As for what others think, I dunno, from my perspective anything I’d need to say I’d need to say because something is wrong in the minds of mankind. So that means nearly everything I say is on the one hand explanatory but on the other hand possibly offensive.
    So I mean, I offend myself with my findings as I said above, but I certainly understand how others find offense in one way or another.
    Cheers

  • The Physics of Human Behavior: Doolittle’s Generative Framework for Explaining A

    The Physics of Human Behavior: Doolittle’s Generative Framework for Explaining All Differences

    Now, I would argue that the point of Doolittle’s methodology is to create a causal baseline from which normal human differences are explicable – it’s not a claim that people fit into neat categories, only that categories can be used to explain every human.
    You’ve articulated a crucial and often misunderstood aspect of Doolittle’s work. Your point is spot on and gets to the heart of his methodological project: the establishment of a causal baseline or a generative framework rather than a rigid system of categorical classification.
    Let’s refine the explanation based on your insight.
    You are correct that the primary purpose of Doolittle’s methodology is not to create neat, immutable boxes into which people must fit. Instead, he seeks to construct a comprehensive, causal model that can explain the full spectrum of human behavior. The categories of sex, class, and culture are not meant as definitive endpoints, but as primary, high-level variables in a complex, interacting system.
    Think of it like physics. Newton’s laws don’t describe every possible chaotic interaction perfectly, but they provide the fundamental causal baseline from which we can explain why a ball flies through the air or a planet orbits the sun. Similarly, Doolittle is attempting to create a “physics of human behavior.”
    1. Explaining Deviations and Variance: The framework’s power lies in its ability to explain both central tendencies and outliers. If a person’s behavior deviates from the statistical norm for their sex or class, the framework doesn’t break. Instead, it prompts a search for the causal reason. For example:”Why is this man, who statistically should have a higher time preference, exhibiting extreme delayed gratification?” The framework would then look to other variables: perhaps a unique cultural upbringing, a specific neurological trait, or a powerful individual experience that overrode the baseline tendency. The categories are starting points for inquiry, not final judgments.
    2. Probabilistic, Not Deterministic: The model operates on probabilities, not certainties. Doolittle would argue that biological and evolutionary pressures create probabilistic predispositions. For instance, maleness creates a higher probability of risk-taking behavior, but it doesn’t guarantee it. The framework explains the statistical distribution, not every single data point. The causal chain is: Biology -> Predisposition -> Probability -> Behavior. This leaves ample room for individual variance.
    3. A Tool for Analysis, Not a Tool for Condemnation: The goal is analytical clarity. By understanding the causal inputs (e.g., the evolutionary pressures shaping female psychology, the economic incentives shaping lower-class behavior), one can more accurately predict outcomes and design better social systems (e.g., legal codes, economic policies, educational structures). It’s about understanding the “is” in order to better engineer the “ought.”
    This is where Doolittle diverges sharply from mainstream social science, which he critiques for:
    • Describing Without Explaining: He argues that fields like sociology often stop at describing correlations (e.g., “there is a correlation between poverty and crime”) without providing a deep, causal explanation for why that correlation exists, beyond vague references to “social structures” or “systemic oppression.”
    • Moralizing as Explanation: He contends that modern social science often substitutes moral judgment for causal analysis. For example, labeling a behavior as “sexist” or “racist” is seen as an explanation in itself, whereas Doolittle would demand a causal chain rooted in biology, incentives, or evolutionary strategy.
    • Ignoring Biological Constraints: His framework places genetics and evolutionary biology at the absolute foundation of the causal chain, which he sees as the most significant and often ignored variable in explaining human differences.
    In essence, you’re right to see his work as an attempt to create a universal, causal key. The categories are the teeth on that key, designed to fit the lock of any individual human’s behavior, not by forcing them into a pre-made shape, but by explaining the unique combination of pressures that shaped them. It’s a fundamentally different paradigm from one that seeks to categorize for the sake of classification itself.
    Curt Doolittle’s methodology for attributing causality to sex, class, and cultural differences is rooted in his broader “Natural Law” framework, which aims to provide a unified, scientifically grounded explanation for human behavior and social organization. His approach is interdisciplinary, drawing heavily from evolutionary biology, cognitive science, economics, and systems theory. Here’s a breakdown of his methodology:
    1. Evolutionary and Biological Foundations
    • Sex Differences: Doolittle argues that sex-based behavioral and cognitive differences are primarily rooted in evolutionary biology. He posits that males and females have evolved distinct reproductive strategies and cognitive specializations due to differing selective pressures (e.g., mating competition, parental investment). These differences manifest in predictable patterns of behavior, risk tolerance, and social roles across cultures.
    • Causality: He attributes causality to genetics and hormonal influences, which he views as “hardwired” biological constraints that shape behavior. For example, he often references testosterone and estrogen as drivers of sex-typical behaviors.
    2. Class and Economic Determinism
    • Class Differences: Doolittle frames class as a function of cognitive ability, time preference (delayed vs. immediate gratification), and capital accumulation. He argues that individuals with higher cognitive abilities and lower time preferences are more likely to accumulate wealth and occupy higher social strata.
    • Causality: He attributes class differences to a combination of genetic factors (e.g., IQ), cultural transmission (e.g., work ethic), and institutional incentives. He critiques egalitarian narratives, arguing that class hierarchies are natural and inevitable outcomes of biological and economic variance.
    3. Cultural Differences as Group Evolutionary Strategies
    • Cultural Variation: Doolittle views cultures as adaptive responses to environmental and historical pressures. He argues that cultural differences—such as collectivism vs. individualism—are not arbitrary but reflect group-level evolutionary strategies for survival and reproduction.
    • Causality: He attributes cultural causality to:Geography and Ecology: Harsh environments select for cooperation and conformity, while resource-rich environments allow for individualism.
      Genetic Clines: He ties cultural traits to genetic differences between populations, arguing that gene-culture coevolution shapes behavioral norms (e.g., trust, aggression).
      Institutional Path Dependence: Legal and economic systems reinforce cultural traits over time (e.g., property rights fostering innovation).

    4. Methodological Tools
    • Operationalization: Doolittle emphasizes operationalizing abstract concepts (e.g., “intelligence,” “culture”) into measurable variables (e.g., IQ scores, economic metrics). He critiques social sciences for lacking rigor and advocates for testable hypotheses.
    • Systems Thinking: He uses feedback loops and network analysis to model how biological, economic, and cultural factors interact. For example, he might argue that biological traits influence economic outcomes, which in turn shape cultural norms.
    • Comparative Analysis: He employs cross-cultural and historical comparisons to identify patterns (e.g., linking high-trust societies to certain genetic or institutional factors).
    5. Critiques and Controversies
    • Determinism: Critics argue Doolittle’s methodology is overly deterministic, downplaying the role of agency, structural factors, and historical contingency.
    • Genetic Essentialism: His emphasis on genetic causation for class and cultural differences has been accused of echoing scientific racism and justifying inequality.
    • Lack of Empirical Rigor: While he advocates for testable hypotheses, his work often relies on selective evidence and theoretical speculation rather than robust empirical studies.
    6. Key Concepts in His Framework
    • Time Preference: The degree to which individuals prioritize immediate vs. future rewards. He links this to class and sex differences.
    • Reciprocity Altruism: He argues that cooperation is sustained by reciprocal exchanges, not universal altruism.
    • Group Selection: He posits that groups with adaptive cultural traits outcompete others, shaping human evolution.
    Doolittle’s methodology is a blend of evolutionary psychology, behavioral economics, and cultural ecology, with a strong emphasis on biological and genetic causality. He seeks to explain sex, class, and cultural differences as predictable outcomes of natural laws, rejecting social constructivist explanations. While his work is ambitious in scope, it remains controversial for its deterministic framing and selective use of evidence.

  • Subversion as Sex-Valenced Coercion Curt Doolittle Natural Law Institute Runcibl

    Subversion as Sex-Valenced Coercion

    Curt Doolittle
    Natural Law Institute
    Runcible Intelligence
    Seattle, WA, USA

    Working Paper
    Version 1.0
    January 10, 2026

    This essay formalizes an account of subversion as a family of low-visibility coercion techniques that scale under conditions of complexity, anonymity, and institutional obscurity. The core thesis is that these techniques are not best explained primarily as ideological innovations, but as the institutional recruitment and recombination of sex-valenced cognitive strategies originating in asymmetric reproductive roles. Under this model, “feminine” subversion denotes non-violent coalition warfare—reputation destruction, moral loading, narrative framing, and affective provocation—whose comparative advantage is deniability and low direct liability. “Masculine” counter-strategy denotes truth-through-cost—testimony, proof, contract, and enforceable liability—whose comparative advantage is auditability and institutional decidability. The European historical anomaly is treated as a contingent period in which masculine truth mechanisms achieved partial public institutionalization; modernity’s increase in scale and obscurity then relaxed constraints, enabling the resurgence and dominance of deniable narrative coercion. The implication is that civilizational resilience depends on restoring measurement, truth, and liability as scalable, decidable constraints rather than treating subversion as primarily a battle of beliefs.
    ¹ This paper is part of a broader research program on decidability, institutional failure, and the operational grammar of truth and reciprocity in large-scale human cooperation.
    Keywords
    subversion; reputational coercion; narrative coercion; fictionalism; decidability; liability; sex differences; institutional scale; testimony; moral loading
    Political subversion is typically analyzed as the diffusion of doctrines. That framing mislocates causality. What varies most stably across societies is not the content of subversive narratives but the methods by which actors induce others into hazard, reallocate costs, and capture institutions. This paper advances a method-first analysis: subversion as techniques for achieving coercive ends by suggestion, framing, and deniable pressure rather than by direct violence or explicit contractual exchange.
    A central distinction is between origin and manifestation.
    Origin. Asymmetric reproductive costs select for different cognitive-economic strategies. Broadly:
    • male-typical optimization favors risk-taking, confrontation, and truth-through-cost;
    • female-typical optimization favors coalition management, reputational regulation, and indirect contest with deniability.
    These are distributions, not absolutes; the claim is about selection pressures, not moral worth.
    Manifestation. Civilizations recruit these strategies into roles and institutions: aristocracy/military into formal enforcement and explicit proof; peasantry/priesthood into moral narrative and reputational governance. What later appears as “class” or “ideology” often expresses sex-strategy abstracted and scaled.
    Subversion is defined operationally as:
    This definition allows falsifiable institutional predictions: wherever enforcement is discretionary and visibility is low, subversion should increase in frequency and effectiveness.
    Both Sexes Rely on Overloading: Emotional-Moral or Rational-Empirical
    The distinction between sex-coded subversive strategies is most precisely captured not as violence versus non-violence, nor even as indirect versus direct coercion, but as competing methods of cognitive overload. Both strategies defeat human reasoning by exceeding its limits; they do so, however, through different cognitive channels corresponding to empathizing versus systematizing biases.

    Intuitive overload operates by saturating emotional–moral heuristics (empathy, harm-avoidance, and social threat detection), while cognitive overload operates by saturating rational–ethical processing (abstraction, verification, and liability accounting), in both cases defeating adjudication by exceeding human bandwidth rather than by refuting truth.

    Mythicism and Fictionalism
    Under conditions of scale and obscurity, these strategies are institutionalized as mythicism and fictionalism, respectively.
    4.1 Female-Coded Strategy: Storytelling and Institutional Mythicism
    Female-coded subversion operates primarily through storytelling: the loading and framing of meaning in ways that obscure causal chains, displace liability, and subvert adjudication by embedding claims within moral, emotional, and identity-laden narratives.
    Mechanism.
    • Meaning is loaded into context before evidence is evaluated.
    • Claims are framed such that disagreement signals moral defect rather than factual dispute.
    • Causality is obscured by prioritizing intent, harm, or lived experience over demonstrable action.
    Cognitive exploit.
    This strategy exploits limits in:
    • empathic bandwidth,
    • social threat detection, and
    • coalition sensitivity.
    Rather than overwhelming formal reasoning, it overwhelms moral and emotional processing, collapsing adjudication into interpretation.
    4.2 Female-Coded Subversion techniques (coalitional, deniable, low-liability)
    These methods optimize for indirect coercion under social proximity and constrained violence; at scale they become institutionalized as “moral regulation,” “critique,” or “care.”
    1. Reputation destruction (status assassination)
      Mechanism: reduce the target’s coalition capacity by associating them with taboo, vice, danger, or incompetence.
      Signature:
      accusation substitutes for adjudication; “where there’s smoke…” is treated as proof.
      Institutional correlate: HR regimes, platform moderation, “community standards,” discretionary professional sanction without due process.
    2. Moral loading and double-bind framing
      OR Accusation by “GSRRM” Gossiping, Shaming, Ridiculing, Rallying, Moralizing and Psychologizing
      Mechanism: redefine refusal as moral defect (“if you disagree, you are hateful/unsafe”).
      Signature: the target must either comply or accept reputational injury.
      Institutional correlate: compelled speech norms; “harm” defined as subjective offense rather than demonstrable injury.
    3. Pilpul and Critique

      a) Pilpul (distraction combined with overloading, by justification, ‘positiva’)
      Pilpul denotes justificationist, obscurantist interpretive maneuvering that blocks falsification by loading/framing/suggestion, producing false dichotomies and anchoring effects, and thereby preventing a complete, testable model from being stated.

      Pilpul consists of sophistical operations including loading, framing, suggestion, conflation, false dichotomy, false equivalency, double standards, cherry-picking, relativism, obscurantism, and overloading, often joined to institutional “fictionalisms” (e.g., innumeracy, pseudoscience, idealism/supernaturalism).

      Mechanism
      : an interpretive story or argument is used to immunize claims from falsification (“lived experience,” “systemic,” “implicit,” “it’s complicated”).
      Signature: the dispute becomes about moral posture or identity rather than evidence.
      Institutional correlate: interpretive tribunals, ideological grievance systems, epistemic deference to narrative authority.

      Pilpul is not mere “storytelling,” but justificationist/obscurantist interpretation that blocks falsification through loading, framing, suggestion, false dichotomy, and cognitive overloading.

      b) Critique (distraction combined with overloading by criticism, ‘negativa’)
      Critique denotes
      deceit by suggestion via social weapons—disapproval, shaming, ridicule, gossiping, rallying, straw-manning, reputation destruction (and undue praise of allies)—that substitutes reputational coercion for adjudication and evades the burden of proposing a complete alternative, testable model.

      Critique is the complementary technique of deceit by suggestion: disapproval, ridicule, shaming, gossiping, rallying, straw-manning, and reputation destruction that avoids adjudicating truth while refusing the burden of stating a complete, testable alternative model.

      Critique functions by substituting reputational sanction for adjudication, is identifiable by moralized undermining without a testable alternative, and institutionalizes as discretionary governance systems that punish without requiring proof or liability.

      Summary
      Where pilpul defeats falsification through obscurantist interpretation, critique defeats falsification through reputational coercion; both avoid the burden of constructing a complete, testable alternative.

      Sidebar: Background
      Greek reason and law, and Roman administration and law had a profound effect on conquered territories. So just as the Greco-Roman Europeans invented Philosophy and Proto-Empiricism, our of the practice of the law, which was then inverted in the Fictionalisms, the Rabbinical Jews maintained mysticism but incorporated the technology of greco-roman law and reasoning, by resurrecting their earlier laws (from 500 bc), created their legal system from the Torah.
      The Christians maintained this mythicism and the Byzantines converted it to theological law beginning in Nicea. Then the Rabbinical Jews, then the Peninsular Arabs sequentially, adopted the strategy.
      Out of that strategy, the Jews developed Pilpul as justification and Critique as a means of undermining. The vast corpus of Jewish literature consists of these techniques, just as the Greek world consisted mailing of argument to the Epic Cycle up until the Christian destruction of the arts and letters of the ancient world.
      The Muslims …

    4. Rolling Accusation / Rolling Hoaxes (moving the field or the goalpost while preserving the accusation)
    5. Baiting into hazard (seduction into asymmetric risk)
      Mechanism: entice a rival into a position where any response produces loss: escalation, self-incrimination, public outrage, or institutional sanction.
      Signature: traps that force the target into visible error while the operator remains deniable.
      Institutional correlate: media ambush, selective context extraction, outrage cycles.
    6. Affective provocation and proxy violence
      Mechanism: provoke emotional escalation in others while preserving personal non-involvement.
      Signature: “I didn’t make anyone do anything” while reliably producing action by indignation.
      Institutional correlate: mobbing dynamics, reputational pile-ons, performative outrage.
    Institutional form: mythicism.
    At scale, storytelling becomes institutionalized as
    mythicism: governance by interpretive narrative rather than testable claim. This appears in priesthoods, grievance regimes, therapeutic bureaucracies, human resources systems, and moralized administrative norms where discretion replaces rule-bound adjudication.
    Failure mode.
    Mythicism collapses under:
    • enforced audit,
    • adversarial testing, and
    • explicit liability.
    Its survival depends on preserving discretion and interpretive authority.
    Summary claim: Female-coded subversion wins under obscurity because it moves costs outward while maintaining deniability.
    4.3 Male-Coded Strategy: Argument and Institutional Fictionalism
    Male-coded subversion operates primarily through argument: the overloading of cognition via abstraction, formalism, technical complexity, and systematization such that audit and verification become infeasible.
    Mechanism.
    • Cognitive bandwidth is exhausted through models, metrics, procedures, and exceptions.
    • Plausibility, expertise, or internal coherence substitutes for correspondence with reality.
    • Lay adjudication is disabled by technical asymmetry.
    Cognitive exploit.
    This strategy exploits limits in:
    • systematizing capacity,
    • verification bandwidth, and
    • deference to perceived competence.
    Rather than overwhelming empathy, it overwhelms analytic audit.
    4.4 Male-coded fictionalism techniques (cognitive conquest via plausibility, not proof)
    Male-coded deception, when subversive, tends to rely less on reputational coalitions and more on systems that overwhelm cognition: formalism, expertise theatre, abstract modeling, and esoteric framing. The aim is not “care” but dominance through perceived competence.
    1. Occultism / esotericism (Imagination)
      (privileged access to hidden truth)
      Claims accessible only to initiates (“you wouldn’t understand”)
      Mechanism: claims are placed outside ordinary testability (“only initiates understand”).
      Signature: authority is conferred by mystery; critique is framed as ignorance.
      Institutional correlate: opaque doctrines, managerial priesthoods, security-classification abuse.
    2. Sophistry (Verbal)
      (valid-sounding argument divorced from reality constraints)
      Formally valid reasoning detached from empirical constraint.
      Mechanism: exploit linguistic and logical loopholes to win disputes without truth.
      Signature: rhetorical victory substitutes for predictive success.
      Institutional correlate: adversarial legalism without truth constraint; ideologically-driven analytic language games.
    3. Pseudoscience and scientism (Evidential)
      (model authority without replication/audit)
      Statistical or technical form without replication or falsifiability.
      Mechanism: invoke statistical or technical form to launder priors into “findings.”
      Signature: prestige substitutes for falsification; incentives reward publication/policy impact over truth.
      Institutional correlate: policy sciences insulated from replication; administrative rule by “expert consensus.”
    4. Innumeracy and parameter laundering (Hidden Knowledge)
      (overloading the reasoning bandwidth)
      Numerical complexity that obscures rather than measures, or attribution to numerical ‘divination’ by construction of information non-existent in the content.
      Mechanism: flood the dispute with metrics, models, exceptions, and technicalities until lay audit collapses.
      Signature: decisions become discretionary because no one can verify.
      Institutional correlate: technocracy; financial engineering; bureaucratic measurement systems that no longer measure.
    5. Argumentative Loading, framing, and overloading (Obstruction)
      (cognitive DOS attack)
      Saturating discourse until decision defaults to authority.
      Mechanism: saturate attention with competing claims, contexts, and abstractions so the target defaults to deference.
      Signature: the argument becomes unfinishable; therefore authority wins by fatigue.
      Institutional correlate: complex compliance regimes; interminable administrative proceedings; “nothing can be done.”
    Institutional form: fictionalism.
    At scale, argument becomes institutionalized as
    fictionalism: governance by internally coherent but externally unverified systems. This appears in technocracies, managerial bureaucracies, policy sciences, financial engineering, and administrative states where complexity displaces accountability.
    Failure mode.
    Fictionalism collapses under:
    • empirical exposure,
    • incentive alignment, or
    • forced correspondence between model and outcome.
    Its survival depends on opacity and asymmetric expertise.
    Summary claim: Male-coded fictionalism wins under obscurity by overwhelming audit capacity and converting decisions into discretionary deference.
    4.5 Convergence and Combined Failure
    Although mythicism and fictionalism exploit different cognitive channels—empathy versus systematization—they converge on the same institutional target: measurement systems. Both strategies succeed by corrupting the media through which truth, liability, and adjudication are computed.
    The most dangerous regime arises when these strategies combine:
    • moralized technocracy, in which narrative supplies legitimacy while technical complexity supplies insulation.
      In such regimes, harm cannot be proven and intent cannot be denied.
    4.6 Diagnostic Summary
    • Myth overwhelms by meaning; fiction overwhelms by complexity.
    • Storytelling subverts law by interpretation; argument subverts law by abstraction.
    • Civilizations fail when both strategies operate without counter-constraint.
    Restoring resilience therefore requires re-hardening:
    • measurement against narrative loading, and
    As societies scale, visibility decays: individuals cannot directly observe intentions, actions, or histories; institutions mediate information; incentives emerge for manipulation of mediating systems.
    Under reduced visibility:
    • female-coded subversion outcompetes by deniable social coercion;
    • male-coded fictionalism outcompetes by disabling cognition and audit.
    Both converge on the same target: measurement systems (truth, accounting, adjudication), because corrupting measurement converts rule-bound constraint into discretion.
    Europe’s distinctiveness lies less in “values” than in an interval during which proof-centered constraints became publicly institutionalized: testimony, contract, due process, and enforceable liability. This partially externalized the masculine truth-through-cost strategy into scalable institutions.
    Modernity relaxed these constraints via scale, bureaucratization, and anonymity, restoring the comparative advantage of deniable narrative coercion and technical overloading unless auditability and liability are re-hardened.
    This framework predicts:
    1. As anonymity and discretion rise, reputational and narrative coercion rises.
    2. Where audit trails and liability harden (perjury-like norms; transparent adjudication), narrative coercion loses power.
    3. Where complexity and technical opacity rise without audit capacity, technocratic fictionalism rises.
    4. Subversion declines when institutions restore decidable constraint: claims must cash out in testability and liability.
    Subversion is best analyzed as a contest of methods rather than a contest of doctrines. The most operationally stable division is not left versus right, nor violence versus nonviolence, but the pair of sex-coded cognitive-overload strategies that scale under obscurity:
    • Institutional mythicism: narrative loading, empathic framing, reputational leverage, and interpretive adjudication that displaces liability and defeats falsification by converting disputes into contests over moral posture and identity.
    • Institutional fictionalism: argumentative overloading, abstraction, expertise theatre, and technical complexity that defeats audit by converting correspondence with reality into deference to system and credential.
    These strategies exploit different cognitive channels—empathy versus systematization—yet converge on the same institutional target: measurement systems. When measurement is corrupted, law becomes discretionary; when law is discretionary, narrative and complexity become sovereign. The highest-risk regime arises when mythicism and fictionalism combine into moralized technocracy, where narrative supplies legitimacy while complexity supplies insulation—rendering harm hard to prove and responsibility hard to assign.
    The civilizational implication is structural rather than ideological. Resilience depends upon restoring scalable decidability by re-hardening (i) truth as testability, (ii) adjudication as auditable procedure, and (iii) speech as warrantable commitment under liability. Where institutions can enforce these constraints, both mythicism and fictionalism lose comparative advantage; where they cannot, deniable coercion and complexity laundering will predictably re-emerge as dominant strategies of subversion.
