This essay “The Five Systemic Profanities” postulates five distinct factors that make up our reality. The essay makes the claim that the current political and economic system traps citizens into supporting some level of exploitation, as non-parasitic parties and solutions are not permitted within the system. Ultimately, the author argues that only by eliminating what is called the "Five Systemic Profanities"—mechanisms of exploitation—can a truly free society be achieved, where public works and infrastructure are provided voluntarily by free individuals through market mechanisms, without state interference.
