One of the most conspicuous phenomena of our time is the gigantic and industrious construction site of globalized single thought - with its clients, architects, guardian priests - which serves to make social behavior predictable and directional in the super-accelerated and conflictual world in which we live.
Global financial capitalism, maneuvering the cultural industry (including entertainment), which it largely possesses, he created an orthodoxy, an obligatory thought, mainstream, scientifically correct, how delegitimizing, isolates or criminalizes – that is, practically excommunicates, it expels from conformed society - not only thinking divergent from orthodoxy, but the same free scientific investigation, economic and historiographical, regarding some fundamental things to direct the course of the transformation of society according to his plans. These things are: certain historical events, certain aspects of the economy, European integration, the euro, immigration, l’islam, ethnic diversity, sexual identity; e, lastly, the alleged efficacy and harmlessness of mandatory vaccines.
Protected beliefs have been built on these things, protected beliefs, in the sense that dissent with respect to orthodoxy, and the same free scientific and historical investigation of those beliefs, they are sanctioned with moral delegitimization, career boycott, administrative discrimination, the exclusion of the media, from teaching, from publishing, when not even criminal consequences. Facts that conflict with orthodoxy are withheld from public opinion, especially in key fields for the orientation of collective thought and sensitivity, of the general conception of reality, of political consensus, of legislation and jurisdiction.
Scientific research is also conditioned, limited and channeled through the financial control of the specialist press, of universities, of research, of publishing.
This resulted in a substantial limitation of freedom of research, of teaching, of public information, which prevents much of the possible dissent.
The imposition of an orthodoxy is incompatible with science, because science proceeds precisely through continuous revision, verification, forgery, and is incompatible with indisputability. Orthodoxy serves to protect beliefs that support positions of privilege and exploitation from scientific scrutiny. The dominant system today, that is, financial capitalism, it has its orthodoxy and its guardians.
The political positions that highlight and contest the trend of progressive transfer of income and wealth from workers to unproductive finance are all labeled as populist-extremist, if not worse, while they are defined as left-wing parties, like the PD in Italy, they defend the concentration of income and political power in the hands of the big bankers, when they are not actually directed by the children of questionable bankers.
Man is not a great resource for his ideals of justice, truth, freedom: so as not to face reality and not have to take on responsibility, most people adopt absurd beliefs, renunciation of freedom, comes to pay, to stun, to do degrading things, to give up freedom. Those who would like to spark a revolutionary and moralizing movement through the diffusion of knowledge of decisive aspects of reality, they are deluded, they themselves shy away from facing other decisive aspects of reality, that is, the aforementioned characteristics of man.
The clergy of many civilizations enriched themselves and acquired political power by making the people believe that, to ensure that the gods sent rain and protected from plagues and famines, it was necessary to make large donations in sacrifice to the temples and to obey the high priests. Today, institutionalized belief, that is, religion, of the scarcity of money and the indispensability for states to go into debt to finance themselves, performs a similar function.
Diego Fusaro explains well, with his short essay Thinking Otherwise, than financial capitalism, to realize himself, i.e. your own profit system, optimally, it needs to become a totalitarian thought, unique, therefore to eliminate any differential human identity and any value other than those of exchange, as well as any moral bond, community, ethnic, cultural, spiritual and every alternative conception of man and the existing order, because they would hinder the omnicommodification and immediacy of the business, which wants every quality to be reducible to quantity, and that everything and everyone is constantly available online for market operations (and surveillance) – in a process of homogenization and reduction of the qualitative to the quantitative which ultimately has an entropizing and deadly effect, that is, nullifying (illuminates the comparison that Fusaro makes of this process to the advance of Nothingness that devours the fantastic world of the famous film The Neverending Story).
To carry out this elimination, he planned ahead, especially in the c.d. glorious 30 years of great growth and apparently democratic economic redistribution, the demolition of class consciousness through consumerism: with which the subordinate classes have assimilated the values ​​of the dominant ones and have morally neutralized as well as politically castrated themselves.
At the same time he continued the demolition, relativization, inversion of traditional values ​​and institutions together with a complex process of censorship and tabooing of dissent, of different thinking (about the things that matter, above all the goals of existence), of the same words that are used to express criticism of financial capitalism. Imperialism, colonialism, plutocrazia, servant-master conflict, they are fundamental words for representing the operations and realities of our world (a world where wars of conquest for oil and other resources, especially Americans and French, and for the imposition of the dollar as the obligatory currency for the exchange of raw materials, they are legitimized as an export of democracy, fight against terrorism and protection of human rights). Words also necessary to conceive and communicate dissent from the model that expresses them. So they were removed from communication to the public opinion, and replaced with other appropriately chosen words. It is an operation similar to that of Newspeak (newspeak) orwelliana in 1984: reverse the meaning of the words, narrow the vocabulary to reduce concepts and ideas and thus produce consensus in the system.
Added to these thought management tools are the targeted launches of millions and millions of emails, tweets and other messages to conduct criminalization campaigns, of alarmism, of optimism aimed at manipulating the collective mind and behavior, in the political sphere, financial etc. With this weapon one can get rid of dissenting intellectuals and their ideas or revelations, as well as commercial and political competitors, creating the appearance that society condemns or mistrusts them, while it is the attack of a single subject, multiplied by millions using technological tools. We also recall here the now almost complete and conditioning dependence of scientific research itself - which is not scientific if it is not free - from the financing of private capitalism and the military sector. The consequences of this dependence are well known and terrible in the health and food fields.
With gender ideology, introduced since 1996 also through the European Union, even biological facts, like the duality of the sexes, they are denied and tabooed as data of nature, unchangeable, and converted into voluntary construction agreements, i.e. in products, so as to create the market for treatments to develop one gender or the other, both or neither (I am referring to both hormonal treatments to suspend sexual intercourse in children, postponing it until they can choose whether to become male or female, and to psychological conditioning to induce "gender" identifications and practices that are divergent from biological sexual belonging).
The “right of capital” (as Fusaro calls it), from its infrastructure location (in a Marxian sense), uses a “left-wing” censorship of customs (obtuse or mercenary) which has been allocated in the "cultural" spaces and bodies (superstructure) to darken, delegitimize, criminalize and attack, sometimes even with physical violence, the structural critics of the aforementioned capitalist model, boasting of being anti-fascist but actually exercising, in a typically fascist way, the proscription and repression of critics of the system, without comparison on the merits but simply through accusations of immorality, extremism, populism or irrationalism, as well as fake news. But this method doesn't always work: the political votes of 4 March 2018 they demonstrated that a large part of the electorate has rejected the institutional pro-immigration and pro-Eurocracy propaganda.
Above all, my essays demystify the founding dogmas of the capitalist system, of its legal legitimacy and consent to it: that of the objective scarcity-expensiveness of money, that of the efficiency-existence of the free market, that of the virtuousness of public spending and the reduction of national debts - which have in fact grown on average, don't fall, as a result of community tax rules. But since these are a protected belief, they cannot be compared with their de facto failure.
The population, in large majority, tends to adapt cognitively, morally and emotionally to the de facto state of reality, to actual power relations, as Fusaro also explains by quoting Etienne de la Boétie, essentially because thinking about the injustice of the power one suffers makes suffering it more afflictive and tormenting, without bringing any benefits.
Thanks to all of the above, the cultural industry of financial capitalism (similarly but much more effectively than any other previous totalitarianism, theocratic, communist or fascist that was) he built and imposed his own orthodoxy, it fabricated a democratic-juridical consensus-legitimation (in which it is once again clear that the principles of democracy and legality are impotent) and he got the dissenting logos (awareness of the injustice-illogicality-contradiction-unhappiness of the current system and of the possibility of designing different systems) can be established and circulated only among a few independent intellectuals, marginals in power, and cannot extend to form a substantial political movement.
After all, a widespread dissenting awareness and a broad political movement contesting the capitalist-financial system, even if they were established, they would not have the ability to produce anything other than some friction, some more difficulties for that system, that is, they would not have the possibility to exchange it for another; and this is because of the repressive capacity of the same, with its media-military-institutional apparatus, it is immense; and because the share of real power put into play in popular votes is minimal; both and above all because the aforementioned system, as I explain in various of my essays (Oligarchy for superfluous peoples, Beyond the agony), it is far more capable than any other system of binding people to itself, companies, governments, as it produces and distributes monetary means more than any other system, that is, the universal motivator, that thing to obtain which almost everyone does almost everything; and what's more, it produces monetary means with accounting operations that indebted it, with compound interest, the people, companies, governments (debt money).
So, in financing the social body, that is, in giving it the money it needs to function, at the same time he owes it to himself, creating the need for him to borrow further money to pay the interest expenses, in a process of growing debt (c.d. “endless debt”), which makes it increasingly dependent on the producers of the currency, that is, from the top of the capitalist-financial system. It is an unavoidable mathematical factor. And this dependence has become not only economic, over time, but also politics, issues directives, dictates the laws, and is the foundation of the Geldgeber's political power (money givers), or more precisely Geldmacher (producers of money – this is the core business of the banking sector), on indebted nations.
We are evidently in the presence of a long-term political plan, obviously not declared and not proposed for public debate nor mentioned or mentionable in the electoral programs of political parties. A progressive debt plan for the purpose of political power and the disempowerment of public institutions. A plan that is based on the fact that users of credit (citizens, companies, administrators, politicians) they are content to resolve the immediate financial problem by requesting and obtaining new financing, time after time, and they do not consider the cumulative macroeconomic effect of repeatedly financing themselves by credit in the long and very long term, while this effect is the objective of the exam plan. A plan that is hidden, by his own executors, behind the precepts of the fight against public debt, of the primary surplus and budget virtuousness - precepts whose application has in fact increased public indebtedness towards the international banking community, as their supporters wanted. Indebtedness that, on a global scale, super i 260.000 billions of dollars and from which none of the main countries of the free world could free themselves by realizing positive balances or in general if they do not escape from the objectively false conception and practice of money imposed by the dominant financial class (as I explain in Cimiteuro, Euroschiavi, The Copernican coin).
In short, social control is the underlying objective of the global financial oligarchy, while monetary profit is just a tool – after all, it couldn't be an end, given that, as I explain elsewhere (Euroschiavi, Ciiteuro, Beyond the agony), the production of monetary profit is something that that oligarchy can do today without objective limits or constraints with electronic accounting means, while managing a world prey to growing imbalances and conflicts is much more challenging and demanding, precisely, the ongoing transition from the financialized society to the zootechnically managed society.
In practice, the space of freedom of men has always been proportional to their physical and mental ability to resist the tendency to control and exploit them by established power. Or, individual freedom is a relationship between the force of control from above and that of resistance to it from below. Today technology is multiplying the former compared to the latter in every field, from that of communication to that of electronics and biochemistry. The spaces of freedom are disappearing.
