Here the political theorist rely on
Jargon, which means "special words or expressions used by a profession or group that are difficult for others to understand"
They use these words, which are difficult to understand in their writings , So we have to look for the word that means difficult to understand.
Only muddled which is "not clear or coherent" and so it is difficult to understand
and abstruce which is "difficult to understand" fits the blanks.
the meanings of the remaining words are-
A. risible - funny
B. vapid - uninteresting , lifeless
E. occult - mystical, supernatural
F. uncanny - strange or mysterious
