The title of this piece references an imperative used to incite attack. It also means “so” or “thus,” particularly as it is written parenthetically, to denote that a word, phrase, passage, etc., that may appear strange or incorrect has been written intentionally or has been quoted verbatim. The implication is that subsequent translations may possibly omit the disclaimer, thereby firmly establishing the incorrect information and carrying it forward ad infinitum. This process of replicating improper information is related to the proliferation of unchecked cancer cells, which portions of some of the piece incarnations resemble.
