Episode notes
Conclusion - The Final Flip of the Coin
In the "game of kings" described by Nimrod Allen III, the rules have always favored the house [Image 3]. The Legacy Entities have played with a loaded deck, using the "Fay 5" to peek at the cards and the Chattel Subsidy to bankroll their bets. They have worn the "Mask" of Brown to hide the face of exploitation.
But as Allen writes, "We shall return at twilight from the lecture pleased that the irrational is rational" [Image 2]. The irrationality of the current system—where a color born of servitude generates billions for a corporation while the descendants of the servants struggle—is finally being exposed as "rational" only to the exploiters.
The Parabolic Parable ends with a choice. We can continue to accept the "necessary fictions" [Image 1] of the Emerald City, or we can demand the Retirement of the Legacy Entity. We can demand that the $200 billion in social capital be returned to the Coin Collective.
The "Brown" does not belong to UPS. It belongs to the ages. It belongs to the men called George who carried the weight of a nation's travel on their shoulders. It is time to use Eminent Domain on history itself. It is time to flip the coin, and for the first time in 150 years, let it land on Tails.
