The ignorant always lose their roots and traditions, and thusly remain ignorant throughout their succession of generations. Though many descendants will be intelligent enough to avoid the folly of their ignorant ancestors, they are then cast out for abandoning "traditions". Vicious cycle.

In the context of this thread, could that be a "viscous" cycle?
