As to the topic of meta philosophy (2 posts down), I have come to the conclusion that the better way to imagine the chart is as a series of rings. The outer ring represents society and the universe, with an inner ring representing philosophy, a yet more inner ring representing meta philosophy, etc (as per the initial system).
What makes this a different diagram is that it better demonstrates the fact that philosophy operates within the system of the world, and meta philosophy operates within philosophy. Inner rings work to better outer rings (possibly by observing the whole system).
What does it mean to better it? Since philosophy seeks to understand, betterment relates to helping it to understand...
I think that's all I have to say.
Happy Ash Wednesday.
