One group possesses the book of knowledge, claiming both authority and the right to interpret the world—including the lives of those without the book. Their understanding is not genuine comprehension but rather a form of epistemic domination, where interpretation functions as surveillance, categorization, and privilege.

A shared epistemic commons: instead of asymmetric possession, everyone gathers around the same books and sentences. This shift refuses the notion of knowledge as a monopoly or credentialed property and imagines knowledge as co-read, co-interpreted, and co-owned.
