The System
From XFamily - Children of God
The term used to describe society outside of The Family. Anything and everything that is 'out there' and not within the group, which considers itself separate from the "un-Godly" world.
It was invariably used while invoking a sense of iconoclastic elitism and thinly veiled distain of the "system" and "systemites".
This characterization played well to personality types who were attracted to trendy "anti-establishment" movements.
