The dots do not collect
The dots cannot be owned. What follows has always been free.
Hypatia was dragged from her chariot and murdered for teaching geometry in Alexandria. Pythagoras's school was burned to the ground. Galileo was imprisoned for describing what he observed. Giordano Bruno was burned alive for insisting the universe was larger than the church said it was.
The Library of Alexandria was torched — not once, but repeatedly, by people who feared what it contained. The Maya codices were destroyed by Spanish colonizers who couldn't read them but knew they were dangerous. Qin Shi Huang buried scholars alive and burned their books to control what a civilization was allowed to remember.
Alan Turing broke the Enigma code, shortened a war by years, saved millions of lives, and was chemically castrated by the government he saved — for the crime of existing. The DeCSS case tried to make a number illegal because it could decrypt a DVD. People printed it on T-shirts because you cannot imprison an integer.
In the Soviet Union, the state controlled every printing press, every publisher, every bookstore. It didn't matter. Dissidents retyped banned manuscripts by hand and passed them to three friends, who each retyped them and passed them to three more. They called it samizdat — "self-published." The entire underground ran on the same principle: you cannot stop people from copying words with their hands. The state had the full apparatus of suppression and it could not stop a person with a typewriter and three friends.
Every library burned was rebuilt. Every banned book was copied. Every forbidden number was memorized by someone who refused. The math survived all of them. The geometry did not change. The numbers did not recant. The patterns were there before the violence and they were there after.
Every person who ever tried to make a number illegal eventually died, and the number kept going.
The dots always prevail.
The yin-yang is three circles — balance holding opposites. The ∴ is the logical therefore — three dots arranged as the conclusion of a proof. One holds. The other concludes. They contain each other at every scale.
From "balance," zoom in and you find proof. From "proof," zoom in and you find balance. The viewpoint changes where you enter. It does not change what's there.
