I'm sorry to go offtopic by commenting on the parent post, but if a little meta-conversation can be permitted here:
epiphenomenon of directionless ethnocentrism
that's really brilliant it is. The whole post is one of the best examples of writing that seems to mean something but is actually just tongue-firmly-in-cheek word stringing. You have to be good writer to keep it so close to actually having meaning without ever crossing the line while injecting humor here and there.
Now your task is to sustain it at greater length and publish.
Of course if you are really just an incoherent kook who happened upon this word ordering as the nth monkey typing on the internet, I don't want to know.
