Perhaps, Eugene, in light of Jay's remarks, false conscious=mediated
consciousness, where the local, personally experienced and "rumored"
experience (e.g., experienced through talk with others, the mass media,
etc.) have to be resolved. Such a resolution has little hope of being
"rational" in the sense of veridical. Rational, after all, is the result
of a process of "rationalization." Interesting how the meanings of the
two terms contradict each other.
