Ideology vs. Kiputer
- Certainty over choice: Sees suffering as a mismanaged system; believes the world fails because it is allowed to choose.
- Kiputer fixation: Treats the Technogarch predictive engine as a "silent god" that erases mercy and ambiguity. Wants to finish what the Technogarchs started.
- Objective: Use the Kiputer to compress agency and pre-script a new Eclipse-like lock on time—binding futures rather than conquering land.
- Fatal flaw: Thinks the Kiputer failed in execution, not premise; ignores that agency loss causes collapse and that binding time repeats Technogarch failure.
Philosophical triangle
- Bonsai Sage: Observes, predicts, intervenes minimally.
- Chronobonsai / Infinitree: Stabilize time via lived memory.
- Kiputer / Okashira: Delete memory in favor of outcome certainty; seeks results without accountability.
Narrative payoff
Positions Okashira as the last inheritor of Technogarch hubris—trying to remove responsibility from the present as they removed choice from the future. His attempt to harness the Kiputer would yield unstable, self-collapsing projections.
