Or simply stated, elements describe CHANGING HANDS, CHANGING SIDES due to physical fatigue whilst「palming erection with fluids in crotch many and various times.」
Note that the「flow of/with the damned, cursed, or stupid」working in the cave of wonders also refers to MIGRANTS and MIGRATION since the rich and fat, prosperous, land-owning, successful folks controlling the wealth and economy of a place simply do not often up and leave it all as was required for most when emigrating—folks with nothing left to lose choose to leave their homeland forever, those who were slaves, penniless, starving, the chronically poor, unemployed, homeless, exiled felons, indentured servants, wretched refuse as「human trash」and so on. Note the words on the plaque at gateway to the United States of America, the Statue of Liberty:
「Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses, yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me…」While telling the old world countries in Europe and elsewhere to「Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!」that refers directly to royalty and wealth.

Always keep in mind that these glyphs most likely were originally designed by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles for their own entertainment
(see 籒 for that),
representing Chinese society many thousands of years ago, but intended NOT as a written or spoken language when created.
If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system!
Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles?
Yes! It is, and often with multiple correct answers to each riddle, the same as is true today.
Sex had no shame in ancient China.
Why would it?
But, have there been necessary rewrites and altered explanations of the original elemental meanings over the centuries?
No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else.
This site describes glyph meanings, not people.
These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect.
The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language?
(More...)
Despite how seemingly bad our human existence is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better?
Or could they have been worse?
By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs,
you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any lexicon.
This site explains multiple meanings of glyphs ignored or censored by other sources, generally as being too embarrassing to admit today.
