Verbatim quote · defining passage

“I am going to call this figure whom we should be seeking out and in seeking out hypothesizing regarding the conditions of emergence and features of, the "pointman." He is at the point, taking the initiative, gathering all initiatives under his banner, and at the same time the one everyone points to, out of wonder, curiosity or outrage, with the finger of accusation.”
