Semantic Compression as Soul Extraction The Mathematical Inevitability of Autocracy in People's States A Study of Power Alienation Based on Information Theory and Semantic Games

Abstract:This paper proposes the theory of "Semantic Compression" to analyze the inherent logical relationship between the "People's" (民) label and the inevitable drift toward autocracy. Research indicates that compressing infinite human variables into a singular political tag leads to the systematic deletion of authentic data (the individual soul), creating a vacuum for "Private Interest to Hijack the Public Good" (以私代公). Tracing the doctrine from its German origins to Sun Yat-sen’s semantic interface, this paper argues that the divergence between Name and Reality is a mathematical certainty of power occupying the "Maximum Share of Hearts."________________________________________I. Core Concept: "The People" as Lossy Compression1. The Deletion of the Infinite Set: A nation consists of countless individuals with independent "Small Private Interests" (小私)—desires, memories, and wills. In a mathematical model, this is an infinite-dimensional variable set.2. Lossy Compression: When political power employs the "People" or "Min" (民) label, it compresses this infinite dimensionality into a single dimension. According to the principles of Information Theory, such compression is irreversible and lossy.3. Soul Extraction: During compression, individual subjectivity (the soul) is filtered out as "noise." What remains of "The People" is merely a hollow, abstract symbol convenient for bureaucratic management.II. The Logic of Power: Hijacking the Interpreter1. The Black-Box Processor: The compressed "People" label cannot act on its own; it requires an Interpreter (The Sovereign).2. Private Interest Masked as Public: The ruler occupies the semantic vacuum created by compression. He claims to be the sole "Processor" of the infinite data set, thereby disguising his own "Big Private Interest" (大私) as the "Public Good."3. Destruction of the Nash Equilibrium:1. The Authentic Equilibrium: Built on the honest acknowledgment of universal self-interest.2. The Autocratic Equilibrium: Under the guise of "selflessness," it forces all "Small Private Interests" to worship the "Big Private Interest." Any attempt to retain individual variables is defined as a "System Error" (betraying the People).III. Historical Trace: The Global Interface of the Slave Code1. The German Origin (Export of Doctrine): Germany theorized the "Anonymous Mass" (Diutisc/Volk). Marx and Hitler developed the ultimate Semantic Hijacking Tools, teaching rulers how to use "Scientific/Racial" labels to blind the masses (the original meaning of Min [民] being a blinded slave).2. The Sun Yat-sen Interface (Import Port): Sun Yat-sen interfaced German state theory with East Asia's deep "Slave Culture," establishing the "Republic" (Minguk/民國) label. His "Tutelage" theory (acting on behalf of the people) became the technical "plugin" for global "Name-Reality Divergence."3. Extrinsic Emphasis: Nations lacking an independent awakened soul compensate by using "External Objects" (Grand titles like People’s, Revolutionary, Holy) to mask internal spiritual exhaustion.IV. Conclusion: Decompression and National Awakening1. Inevitability of Divergence: Autocratic regimes must adopt the "People's" label because it is the cheapest technology for masking resource monopoly and soul extraction.2. The Essence of Awakening: National awakening is analogous to the Buddha’s Self-Realization. It is the Decompression of Semantics—the refusal to be simplified into a label and the reclaiming of the "Eyes" to see the reality of self-interest.3. Definition of a Normal Nation: Successful nations acknowledge the legitimacy of conflicting interests and allow individuals to legally pursue "Small Private Interests," forming an honest, soulful, and stable equilibrium.
