internalism

Paradigm of symmetricity in which an object is externally symmetric if each of its individual parts are INTERNALLY symmetric--even if adjacent individual parts are not symmetric with respect to each other.

Synonymous to liminalism.
Internalism or liminalism creates space.

Asymmetric adjacent internally-symmetric (disymmetric) individual parts that create a symmetric whole, a metastructure.

Internalism (space) meta-emerges when the symmetric components of all of the adjacent asymmetric parts and the symmetric whole intersect at a single point generated by an asymmetric line which creates a contiguity between the disymmetric parts-of-parts and the symmetric whole.

interracism

An intersubjective form of identitarianism asserting that the materialistic contrasts between cultures are not biological but rather are linguistic.

Interracism divides cultures into a linguistic duality of high-context (dramatic) and low-context (stoic) attributes pursuant to the metas delineated by anthropologist Edward H. Hall.

Also called "metaracism" in conflationary terms.
Interracism argues that tangibly distinct cultures are separated by linguistic interpretation in contrast to IQ scores.
