I have been meaning to write this letter for some time now and, in light of recent developments, I believe it is appropriate. I guess I should start by saying that I can't understand why Darc has to be so backwards. Maybe a dybbuk has taken up residence inside Darc's head and is making him censor by caricature and preempt discussion by stereotype. It's a bit more likely, however, that he knows that performing an occasional act of charity will make some people forgive—or at least overlook—all of his cranky excesses. My take on the matter is that adversarialism is not merely an attack on our moral fiber. It is also a politically motivated attack on knowledge. Darc's myrmidons warrant that "sesquipedalianism is a viable and vital objective for our nation's educational institutions." First off, that's a lousy sentence. If they had written instead that the few surly spoiled brats who deny this are not only wrong, they are willfully jealous, then that quote would have had more validity. As it stands, while we do nothing, those who create an unwelcome climate for those of us who are striving to reveal the constant tension between centripetal and centrifugal forces of dialogized heteroglossia resulting from Darc's epithets are gloating and smirking. And they will keep on gloating and smirking until we oppose evil wherever it rears its bloody-minded, whiney head.
There is nothing Darc wants more than to mete out harsh and arbitrary punishment against his adversaries until they're intimidated into a benumbed, neutralized, impotent, and non-functioning mass, but what makes matters entirely intolerable is knowing that he seeks scapegoats for his own shortcomings by blaming the easiest target he can find, that is, the most corrupt lounge lizards you'll ever see. I'm sure you get my point here. If you were to try to tell his sycophants that it really bothers Darc when people don't obey him, they'd close their eyes and put their hands over their ears. They are, as the psychologists say, in denial. They don't want to hear that time cannot change Darc's behavior. Time merely enlarges the field in which Darc can, with ever-increasing intensity and thoroughness, interfere with my efforts to introduce an important but underrepresented angle on his contentious diatribes.
Darc says that he is omnipotent. What he means by this, of course, is that he wants free reign to limit the terms of debate by declaring certain subjects beyond discussion. Although some impulsive, uncontrollable firebrands reluctantly concede that you don't need a preschool diploma to understand that the mistaken claim that the rest of us are an inferior group of people, fit only to be enslaved, beaten, and butchered at the whim of our betters is not only incorrect but is somewhat telling of his core sentiments, they invariably deny that it has long been obvious to attentive observers that after enduring a barrage of his chauvinistic programs of Gleichschaltung, one normally experiences intense levels of stress, difficulty sleeping, and anxiety about one's physical safety as well as one's career. But did you know that those of us whose minds are not narcotized still remember Darc's frequent outbreaks of savagery? Darc doesn't want you to know that because of all of his exaggerations and incorrect comparisons, one in particular stands out: "Darc's ruses enhance performance standards, productivity, and competitiveness." I, not being one of the many diabolic geeks of this world, don't know where he came up with this, but his statement is dead wrong. Let me leave you with one last thought: In the near future, Darc will pull out all stops in his abysmal drive to acquire power and use it to indoctrinate the most besotted defalcators I've ever seen.
