The current yoke on Leviathan and Behemoth

There is an alliance between the interests of trade and that of the state that needs explaining.

Trade is an organising force resulting in corporations. These corporations possess capabilities on which the capabilities of the state rely. Under military rule the military would hence direct the development of these corporations. Under the current rule however there is a leviathanic body that makes the determination which corporations are to be canonised so as to secure their capabilities. It is a recruitment office. The military can still fund corporations though and it is in control of the second office, the configuration office, which decides how the secured capabilities of the canonised corporations are being used in order to ensure their safety.

When organisations age, they become more static, just like a tree does (which is an organisation of fibers), the reason for it being that they approach the perfect use of their capabilities. But configuring ever stiffer corporations necessarily becomes an ever more ecdemic, outwardly directed task, that is to say ever more aggressive: When you can't configure the defence, you must suppress the enemy's ability to manoeuvre, the enemy here being anyone who hasn't been canonised. And for that reason the spirit of the configuration office becomes ever more beastly. That it should be forced to follow one extreme action with one even more extreme is a question of helping us break free.
