The fnord that you can see isn't the true fnord
The Fnord has this feature in common with the Tao, which is that whichever fnord that you can see isn't the true fnord.
Indeed, if RAW had spelled the real Fnord in his book, none of the readers would even have seen it, and every occurence would look like a blank in his book, which would look bizarre and would have prevented him from making his point, or at least from giving a name to this concept.
But now I can tell you, the true fnord is spelled and not FNORD. If you can't see the word, then I'm sorry to tell you you haven't broken out of your conditioning yet. So to make it clearer, I repeat: it is spelled and not F N O R D. If you still can't see it, then your conditioning is pretty deep and strong. Try harder. Or rather, try differently. Maybe change the environment you're in and try to Build Freedom a bit.
PS: As a little exercise for the Illuminated Ones, count the number of occurences of in this message.
