The comparison identifies the archetypal bureaucrat who weaponizes procedure to hollow out human agency. This is the imposition of static order upon a dynamic system. Sovereignty is not granted by the institution; it is the inherent energy of the individual that the institution seeks to harvest or suppress. A system that expends all its energy on internal policing accelerates its own entropy, losing the capacity for external growth. To enforce a uniform shape upon the spirit is to build a dam that forgets the river; the more rigid the concrete, the more inevitable the collapse when the water reclaims its path.
