Thank you Pim. That is an excellent way of describing what’s going, “both perpetuates and conceals” the ongoing system of domination, which is premise upon the generally unstated claim (presumption) of a right of domination. The concealment is accomplished by means of synonyms and euphemistic synonyms for domination, such as civilization, property, state, etc.

The theme here -- 'chronic' -- nicely frames the problem.

As a writer of fiction, I am in awe by the way you expose the wizardry [= language & etymology that both perpetuates and conceals the mentality] of the ongoing domination system.
