To relate all of this back to The Worker, I will mention that the large scale construction projects of the ancient world were certainly managed by this intoxicated priest class. The ornate floral geometry on all of the temples of the archaic world is meant to symbolize the visual hallucinations that occur under the influence of various plant drugs. In this way, the figure of the Worker does not necessarily have to be tragic. The question rather is who is directing the worker, and to what ends? Is the worker like the Freemasons who built the Cathedrals of Egypt, or the Greeks who built the Acropolis of Athens under the directive of Pericles? Mind you, Pericles supposedly consulted with a feminine Goddess to heal a man who was injured while working on the Acropolis, this very likely means that the remedy to the man's illness was divined by Pericles under the influence of a hallucinogenic drug.

In this way, if The Worker is led by an archaic priesthood that is consistent with the traditions of antiquity, then he will make great and beautiful things. If he is not, then he will create an iron prison, and this is largely the world that he has constructed up until our time today. The question yet remains if the power to direct labor might yet be vested out of the hands of capital, and returned to it's rightful place in the possession of a drugged out priest with artistic ambitions to immortalize the name of his nation and people.

That's my autism for the night, cheers lads.
