FINDING THE ANATOMY OF POPULISM AND THE CHALLENGE TO THE ELITE IN FRANCE


on Alexandr Dugin
The protests in France, symbolized by the yellow vests, they cover an increasingly larger part of society. Political experts have already called this movement a “new revolution”. The escalation of the “yellow vest” movement is already so serious that it is absolutely necessary to analyze this phenomenon in detail.
We are dealing with a vivid manifestation of modern European populism. The meaning of populism as a phenomenon emerging from the political structure in societies formed in the wake of the Great French Revolution and based on the confrontation between right and left, is changing radically.
Populist movements they reject this classic left-wing political scheme / right and they do not follow any rigid ideological attitude, neither right nor left . This is the strength and success of populism: does not play by preset rules. However, populism has its own logic: despite all its spontaneity, it is quite possible to trace some logic and even the beginnings of a populist ideology taking shape before our eyes.
First of all, it is striking that populist movements are directed against the political elite as a whole, without making distinctions, whether right or left. This is the “revolt of the periphery of society against its center”. In his famous work, the American sociologist Christopher Lasch (1932-1994) designated the form of government that prevails in modern neo-liberal Western society as the “elite revolution”.
At the beginning of the 20th century, it was customary to follow José Ortega y Gasset's speech on the "revolt of the masses", whose growing influence on politics threatened, it seemed, to destroy Western culture – the European Logos.
But Christopher Lasch has noticed what is currently manifesting itself as a new political trend: it is the elites who are destroying European culture and Logos today. These new Western elites, who have reached the pinnacle of power only with their resourcefulness and their immense will to power, they are much worse and more destructive than the masses.
A normal person still maintains some cultural traditions; it is almost impossible to find a “pure proletarian”. My modern capitalist elite, who have nothing aristocratic in their senses, they are greedy for power, of position and comfort. At the same time, more and more marginal typologies have begun to penetrate the “new elite”, people not coming from peripheral groups, but from minority – ethnic groups, cultural, religious (often sectarian) and sexual – have become dominant to each other. It's this perverted rabble, according to Christopher Lasch, which forms the basis of the modern globalist elite, which destroys the foundations of civilization.
Consequentially, populism – including the populism of the “yellow vests” – can be seen as a retaliatory uprising of the people against the elites, who have completely lost their connection with society. The elites have built their own world in which double standards and judgments reign, norms of political correctness, liberal demagoguery.
According to these “new elites”, normal people and society, in their current state, they have no place in this elitist world. Therefore, the typical representative of the “new elite”, Hillary Clinton, shocked by the success of the right-wing populist Trump, he openly insulted ordinary Americans – as deplorables , which in its meaning means "shameful". “Deplorables” chose Trump – not because they loved him, but to respond to the “globalist witch” Clinton.

Macron celebrates anniversary 1918

Macron is a representative of the same type of “new elite”. It is curious that on the eve of the elections the French newspaper “Libération” published the headline “Do what you want, but vote Macron” (“Do what you want, but vote for Macron”). This is an obvious paraphrase of Aleister Crowley, who proclaimed himself in 20 th century as the Antichrist and the Beast 666: “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole Law”. In other words, obedient crowds should vote Macron not for rational reasons, not for his ideas and virtues, but simply because this is the imperative law of the ruling elite.
The elites' contempt for the obedient masses massacred by the crisis is so open that they don't even bother to seduce them with impracticable promises: "Vote for Macron, because this is an order and this is not objectionable. “Vote and then you are free. Otherwise you are deplorable. And that's all.
In Italy where they went to government thanks to the popular vote, on one side the League and on the other the movement 5 position, and together these parties managed to create the first populist government in European history.
Now was touched by France by a wave of populism and, however there is no political contact with the right of the Front National nor with the left represented by Melenchon, now the masses of the yellow vest insurgents they unite against the power of the elite who despises them as deplorable.
Right-wing populists are appalled by the elite's new and senseless policies towards immigration and the senseless destruction of French cultural identity.
Left-wing populists are outraged by the disastrous economic policies of the elite that only defend the interests of big business : Macron is a protégé of the Rothschilds and shows which side he is on.

Yellow vest revolt in Paris

If Mélenchon and Marine Le Pen cannot be united politically, one being – too far to the left and the other – too far to the right, then the “yellow vests” will make this union as a replacement for political leaders seeking to lead a populist movement . The “yellow vests” are not just against economic policy or immigration – they are against Macron as a symbol of the entire system, against globalism, against liberal totalitarianism, against the “existing state of affairs”. The “yellow vest” movement is a populist and popular revolution. And the word "people" (populus, “the people”) in the concept of “populism” it must be understood literally.
These are not abstract masses or an impersonal proletariat – they are the last living people who rose up against the world power of the globalist offspring, the rebels (as Lasch believes) of culture and civilization, as well as on man as such, on people , about God Today there is no longer left and right: only the people are against the elite. The “yellow vests” are creating a new political history, a new ideology. Macron is not a personal name, It's a Matrix label. To achieve freedom, he needs to be destroyed. Thus the "yellow vests" broke down their speeches, and they tell the truth...
