Fraudulence is Inherently Chaotic

Whiteness is fraudulent and chaotic because it relates through non-relation, organizing the world around acquiring distance from the very thing it requires to become legible. Because it denies its honest relationship to the other, it enjoys a dishonest relationship with itself, a relationship that passes through and is shaped by the figure of otherness, a figure that was and is and always will and must be a virtual, mythic figure. Whiteness cannot know itself, for the myth that organizes its perception constitutes the only knowledge it is allowed to have, a knowledge that must pass through a fictional other in order to become valuable. The mirror must remain broken for whiteness to perceive its own ‘special’ value, and it is in this that whiteness is a dysfunctional paradigm. It does not privilege its own ‘humanity’ or limit the humanity of others, it simply denies that humanity exists or has any value at all. It is a paradigm of human worthlessness that gives way to the impoverishment of the species, because it believes that human beings, insofar as they are discernible at all, are not actual, but virtual. Animated symbols in an organizing myth; a myth applied to concrete circumstances in order to realize that myth’s impossible object.
