Abstract
For Michel Foucault's analysis of state formation, the 'discovery of population' was the pivot on which the transition from rule based on police to rule in liberal modes of government took place. Moder 'governmentality' takes population as its object. Foucault's usages of 'population' proposition to the continually asked questions 'what's the class?,' 'where's the class?,' 'what class do you belong to?.' And the French Communist Party con- fronted all social struggles with the question, 'is this struggle in the interest of theproletariat?.' Marxists askedrepeatedly 'what's the class?' butnever 'what's the struggle?,' 'who is engaged in struggle?,' 'what is at stake in struggle?,'

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
