Abstract
The concept of the subject is fundamentally equivocal, and its polit-ical connotations remain ambiguous. I propose to foreground in-stead the general category of the actor, in both its theatrical and action-oriented senses. The theatrical register helps remind us of the difference between being and doing, or between a performer and a role; it also serves to foreground the deliberate, trained, pre-pared, and situated quality of any performance. More importantly, the actor understood as capable of action helps to foreground as-pects of agency that the philosophers of Jean-Luc Nancy’s genera-tion tended to downplay or condemn, notably those of intention, purpose, and will. If we are actually to confront the enormous prob-lems facing the world, we need an adequate account of collective action and thus of collective purpose. Rousseau and Marx help to frame some of the elements of such an account, while Luxemburg, Sartre, and Fanon, among many others, help to clarify some of its contemporary dimensions. Le concept du sujet est fondamentalement équivoque, et ses conno-tations politiques restent ambiguës. Je propose de mettre plutôt en avant la catégorie de l’acteur, en jouant sur les deux sens princi-paux du mot – l’action au théâtre, et l’action en générale. Le re-gistre théâtral nous aide à rappeler la différence entre être et faire, ou entre un comédien et un rôle; il sert également à mettre en avant la qualité délibérée, entraînée, préparée et située de toute performance. Plus important encore, l’acteur compris comme ca-pable d’agir aide à souligner des aspects de l’action que les philo-sophes de la génération de Jean-Luc Nancy avaient tendance à mi-nimiser ou à condamner, notamment ceux de l’intention, de la mo-tivation, et de la volonté. Si nous voulons réellement affronter les énormes problèmes auxquels le monde est confronté, nous avons besoin d’une théorie adéquate de l’action collective et donc de l’objectif ou du but collectif. Rousseau et Marx aident à encadrer certains des éléments d’une telle théorie, tandis que Luxemburg, Sartre et Fanon, parmi beaucoup d’autres, aident à clariier cer-taines de ses dimensions contemporaines.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
