The essence of production is assimilation of existence. There is nothing new in production. It is a confirmation of the human ability to conquer existence. There is no natality in technological “creation”. This kind of “creation” is just a confirmation of what we already know.
Class struggle
The essence of class struggle is the experience of being inferior.
Class struggle is not just about material oppression. Equally important is moral oppression. In both cases, one’s own experience of inferiority is strongly present. The material inferiority can be accepted, the moral inferiority is often denied and often turned into hatred. Hatred towards those who manage to appear as or actualy is the moral superior class.
The essence of learning
The essence of learning is anamnesis. This requires listening before speaking and seeing before doing. Listening and seeing others are more important for learning than doing oneself.

Language and essence
Language is expression of essences. Attempting to write or speak anti-essentialist will always end up in a particular essentialism. This could be cultural essentialism, gender essentialism, or other forms of totalitarian tribalism. Humans are not trapped in an onto-theology. We are part of the onto-theology that always already exists in the world and that makes it possible for us to have language and sensus communis.
Essence of idiot
The essence of an idiot is lack of autonomy. That is to say, an idiot is not mastering one’s self, but is included as a piece in a mass without substance. Mass society will necessarily make it easier for idiots. In the same way, the social critique of individuality and subjectivity works effectively to promote man as an economic idiot and not a political subject.
Acceleration and anti-essentialism
Anti-essentialism is haste, acceleration, chaos, and the glorification of complexity.

Ethics
The essence of ethics is human’s relationship with cosmos and cosmos’ relationship with human
