Cultural Incest

Fake words. Or Walden ponds. A new thought series. Part treatise on digital aesthetics and part ongoing project on language.

Cultural Incest

Noun. /ˈkəlCH(ə)rəl ˈinˌsest/ ]

  1. When culture reinforces its own ignorance. Cultural isolation and the resulting inbreeding of ideas and distrust of outsiders. The state of isolation often becomes austere and ultimately toxic to social outcomes.

Ex:After a few generations of cultural incest, the group’s relationship to truth is opaque to the point that pursuing it, as a means to lead them, is futile.

Dys. Inversely related to Latin function, functio performance, from fungi to perform.
