despotic signifier, n.All

The Despotic signifier (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the supreme sign to which every other sign finally refers, appearing at once as lack and as excess.

The Despotic signifier (n.) destroys ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the chains of desire and lines them up, using their bricks as immobile units for an imperial Great Wall of China.
