Bouvard on Leftism's War Against Language

Dennis Bouvard · X / Twitter · Aug 05, 2026 · 1 min read

Leftism ultimately has to turn against language itself, because language is the deferral of violence and any utterance that isn't sending its listeners directly to join the sparagmos is "mystification"--and no utterance can be certain enough of doing this.

This is why the originary hypothesis is the most intrinsically, impenetrably anti-leftist utterance possible and why it operates at a frequency Girardians can't hear.

@truepeers @slooperbia50068 Yes, they couldn't touch it, not even to turn it around in their hands a couple of times before putting it down again.

@slooperbia50068 @truepeers Interesting, but I have no idea who it is so maybe he's picked up the concepts elsewhere--although "sparagmos" in particular is a bit niche.

@slooperbia50068 @truepeers Just whether he's likely to have picked up the concepts from me. Obviously there can be people who see my posts of whom I'm unaware but it's also likely there would have been a "like" or two along the way.

@slooperbia50068 @truepeers Yes, and also widely known--I wouldn't need to assume it comes from me since I took it from Schmitt.
