corporeality

The phenomenon that a body external to one's self is not the same body from one moment to the next.

A phenomenon of the memory-space continuum.
Corporeality is a phenomenon and continuity-of-consciousness is a metaphenomenon of the memory-space continuum.

apocalypse

The contrapositive relationship between aesthetic elements (lines) and aesthetic attributes (colors, space) in which human beings are pawns.

Schematized in Goethe's Theory of Colors.
Goethe conjectured that colors and spaces (implicit lines) are contraposed to EXplicit lines in linear time and this contraposition is only manifested to human beings as cultural conflict.

Thus human beings are not agentic actors in this conflict but are FUNCTIONS in the apocalypse.

late democracy

A phenomenon in which tribalization reveals itself to be a feature of democracy in contrast to an anomaly.

A phenomenon in which society runs out of structural institutions to scapegoat so people begin to scapegoat each other (democratic confederalism).

Often misnomered as "late capitalism" by the left.
In late democracy tribalization reveals itself to be a larger meta-state of which democracy is a subset in contrast to a semantic anomaly in the circle of democracy.

Democracy reveals itself to be a mass distributor of the scapegoating impulse which was previously chaperoned by organized religion.

Reaction to late democracy forms the basis of Slavic (Russian) idealism which propounds a STATE religion.

Heideggerization

The process of caring about others in order to actualize the self.

A phenomenon delineated by the philosophy of Martin Heidegger.

Self (meta) - caring.
Heideggerization uses solipsism (continuity-of-consciousness; discontinuity-of-corporeality) in order to achieve care.

Heideggerization implies that egoism is not a complete idea since human beings use caring to achieve a sense of self; and selfness is a more fundamental idea than selfishness.

Ie. Selfishness mimics but is not self-actualization.

constructivism

Functionalism.

Late postmodernism.

Post-postmodernism. Alternatively referred to as post-structuralism.
The ontology of the word 'constructivism' indicates that not only is postmodernism not the same phenology as Marxism; but post-structuralism is post-postmodernism in contrast to postmodernism.

Postmodernism has two periods of development: "hard" led by Frege, Kant, and the German arithmeticians and soft led by the Benjamin, Adorno and the cultural capitalists of the Frankfurt school.

Constructivism or post-postmodernism is best attributed to the post-realists Foucalt, Baudrillard, and Lacan in contrast to the surrealists (postmodernists) that came before them.

"Constructivism" was coined by Jean Piaget.
