Panopticon

The panopticon is a design of institutional building with an inbuilt system of control, originated by the English philosopher and social theorist Jeremy Bentham in the 18th century. The concept is to allow all prisoners of an institution to be observed by a single corrections officer, without the inmates knowing whether or not they are being watched.

Pareidolia

A type of apophenia, the tendency for perception to impose a meaningful interpretation on a nebulous stimulus, usually visual, so that one detects an object, pattern, or meaning where there is none. Common examples include seeing faces in inanimate objects or perceived images of faces, animals, or objects in cloud formations. Pareidolia may extend to include hidden messages in recorded music and hearing voices (mainly indistinct) or music in random noise, such as that produced by running water or air conditioners.

Pedophocracy

commonly known as political pedophilia or pedogate,

A term to describe accusations of secretive pedophilia, child sexual abuse, and occultic practices among "elites" (including regional authorities, religious leaders, high-ranking public officials and wealthy businesspeople - the ruling class), which are usually dismissed as conspiracy theories by the mainstream. Pedophilia is not only used for profit, but to own, control, and destroy the powerful. Awareness grows beyond conspirophile culture and truther movements despite endless thought-police efforts as critics allege the mainstream corporate-controlled media downplay, ignore, or censor discussion with dynamic silence tactics to keep attention off this topic and their sinister control matrix.

Polycrises

The term polycrisis, also referred to as a metacrisis or permacrisis, describes a complex situation where multiple, interconnected crises converge and amplify each other, resulting in a predicament which is difficult to manage or resolve. Unlike single crises which may have clear causes and solutions, a polycrisis involves overlapping and interdependent issues, making it a more pervasive and enduring state of instability. This concept reflects growing concerns about the sustainability and viability of contemporary socio-economic, political, and ecological systems. Coined in the 1990s, the concept became popular in the 2020s to refer to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, war, surging debt levels, inflation, climate change, resource depletion, growing inequality, artificial intelligence and synthetic biology, and democratic backsliding. Critics of the term have characterized it as a buzzword or a distraction from more concrete causes of the crises.
