You talk on the only level that matters, Ann. All the old categories are nonsense in the face of the age of consequences that is being ushered in by a thirst for criteria that is, in the end, incomprehensible because it ultimately acts against the interests of its shepherds as well. Your "linguistic devices" are a breathable air after the smoke. Thanks.
