For millenia, the deathcult believed above all to the purity of blood as the ground for the justice of their dominion. Blood was passed down, blood was passed on - like an inheritance - one had good or bad blood, and this determined one’s total life outcomes. It follows that the purest blood of all should rule, such blood was the best by pedigree and deserved its rightful place atop the social-genealogical structure or tree.

In particular this belief poisoned - made the deathcult’s agents and benefactors feel right in poisoning - the knowledge corralled and enclosed and credentialed in their libraries, universities, and non-governmental organizations, by obsessing these institutions' subjects with a paranoid demand for categorial purity. (That the development of this neurosis was lubricated by outright bribery is no longer seriously in question.)

Everywhere, metabolic and environmental synergy can be denied and occluded by magical, mystifying concepts unifying the relation among health, organic unity, and organic singularity. Under such an ideological regime, the healthiest body was not only the cleanest one - not merely the body freest of dirt - but actually the “cleanliest,” the one that purified itself.
