Cladistics is searching for the class clade.This search is, however, vain, because there is no class clade to find; the class is contradictory, paradoxically contradictory, because classes are not real.
Instead, the class clade is the end of the assumption (ie, axiom) that classes are real. It is the empirical proof that this axiom is wrong. It is the contradictory (paradoxically contradictory) end on beginning with the axiom that classes are real.
The class clade is thus a delusion. The question is thus when this fact will stop biological systematists searching it? Never? Are cladists incapable of understanding? Can't they drag themselves out of the conceptual melt-down they have landed in. Can't they distance themselves from their own classification so that they can see the difference between their comprehension (ie, subjectivity) and the objective reaity? Can't they see the forest because of all trees? Are they forever lost in insensability (like Hennig was)?
Cladists are typologists. Racists are also typologists. But, as with differences in the generic and the specific, typologists are not necessarily racists, but racists are necessarily typologists. Typology is thus an entrance to racism. The fact that the class clade is a delusion does thus counterattack racism in gate by showing that typology is contradictory, paradoxically contradictory. Already the gate to racism is thus contradictory, paradoxically contradictory. Typologists are groping for an existential handle for prejudices, but, unfortunately for them and fortunately for the rest of us, there is no such handle to find. Instead, typology is factually contradictory, paradoxically contradictory.
I welcome all typologists (not only cladists) to comment this post. It would be fantastic if we could bury typology forever.
