Causal chaining allows

@MetaphorMagnet to

blend the norms of two

concepts with differing

affect profiles to achieve

a surprising what-if

whole. Consider Artists:

(I used to be an artist!)

By chaining KB triples together, a machine can observe

that artists typically cause a positive effect on the arts.

Seeing that critics can have a negative effect on arts,

and dictators have a negative effect on their critics ...

... @MetaphorMagnet reasons that dictators can have

the same positive effect on the arts as artists! This is

sophistry as ‘critic’ is used in two differing senses, but

in this what-if blend, Artists become like Dictators!
