The Two Battles for Right

Once you understand the existence of the Rg/Rt/Reg/Rch/Rit/Rd cryptotype, you see that there are two battles for “Right” happening simultaneously in Indo-European civilisation — one visible, one invisible.

The visible battle is the one we all recognise. The political struggle to control and define what is Right. It is everywhere in our public discourse: the struggle to identify credibly with the political “right”; the contest over whether human rights protections should be entrenched or abolished; the fight over who gets to invoke sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity. This battle plays out in parliaments, courts, elections, and newspapers. Everyone can see it.

The invisible battle is the one this research reveals. A fight over the -Rch content of archetypes — the Right-Patterns that operate like ghosts in our minds, shaping what we accept as right, just, legitimate, and sovereign before we consciously deliberate. The -Rch element is immanent in “archetype,” “monarchy,” and “oligarch.” Every archetype therefore carries an encoded claim about what is Right. When propagandists mobilise archetypes — consciously and unconsciously — through Disinfolklore, they are fighting this invisible battle: reprogramming the Right-Pattern in millions of minds, without those minds knowing the contest is even happening.

The comparative invisibility of even the idea of archetypes in our culture blinds us to this deeper struggle. By surfacing the -Rch element — showing that the Rch in our archetypes is the same cryptotype as the Rt in our truth and the Rg in our governance — we can see for the first time that every piece of Disinfolklore is an attempt to redefine the archetype of what is Right.

Although M-N- is the most prevalent cryptotypic semantic signalling system immanent in Indo-European minds, the Rg/Rt/Rch ghost in our machine is not far behind in importance. Mobilising the “Look for the Mana in the Meme!” technique in our everyday lives — parsing each meme for indicators of how it will affect our participation in this deeper battle to define and control the content of what is Right — gives us an edge that no fact-checker, no media literacy course, and no platform moderation algorithm can provide.
