Freedom? Conformity
I discovered with surprise that when I talk in public information "outside the lines" (for example, who made the September 11 ... who is to blame for Palestine?) Friends, colleagues, not only show disbelief but turn against a certain indignation, ... sometimes even with a certain indulgence, one that gives you mad! This seal leaves me dumbfounded because I find myself in front of a massive iron conformism that self-advocates in an unpredictable way ... why?
Strange because the procedure should be considered shameful in a society that says "free" and "critical" but evidently it is not, and I do not even explain it with the empire of a single thought in the media is more ... insidious totalitarian. That phenomenon is?
"The process - writing - is done in a general framework defined by slogans that appeal to an attitude of mind characterized by a conformity of iron."
do not we see perhaps every day? In our Western world, where everyone has "free" to think and do what he wants, actually exists in a conformity of iron: we are all free, but all free to think the same things, we accept the same interpretation of events, we see same things on TV, we share the same cliches and preconceived ideas.
The picture of our supposed freedom is defined by 'key words', such as those that existed in the Soviet world. But with a subtle difference, but essential: those slogans were ideological, they refer to militant ideology that is explicitly stated as such "philosophical" or even "scientific." Our watchwords, to which we obey, however, "return to narrative firmly established through humanitarian and moralistic extremely vague concepts, thinking well and comfortably."
For example, it is not an ideological imperialism that we are occupying Iraq militarily ol'Afghanistan, but "to bring democracy," "liberation of women wearing the chador," or "combat global terrorism."
What makes plausible these claims completely implausible, are "narratives." Every day, every hour, telling us of "our boys" and "terrorists" who threaten them or chop them in pieces. It 'impossible think that the so-called terrorists may be partisan in the fight against the occupation, and it was us to bring the terror in parts of the world did not know him, where before there were no attacks stragista nor Islamic suicide bombers.
know the power of "narrative": just think of "narrative" on the Holocaust - I would call the founding narrative, continuous mixing of 'memories' private collections, and revised continually, movies (Schindler's List, The Pianist ...), exaggerated which are taught in school, mix of false ("memory" of old who remember well when they were interned at Auschwitz at the age of 4 years ... nobel data trust).
The power of this narrative is invincible among other things, establishes once and for all that there is no need to study Nazism, because Nazism is not justified, even historical, is an irrational monster, inexplicably born, and fortunately the "democracies" are eradicated. Those who try to investigate the Nazis as any historical fact may at any time on charges of "revisionism", and even worse than denial: the watchwords of our conformism europoide that led us to punish those who say that the law is not true! (Remember the Bishop Williamson who dared to question the number of deaths in gas chambers?)
At the same so, today, the absolute narrative says that "Iran is threatening Israel, Iran as a military power is much lower in Greece, wants to" wipe Israel off the map and is a danger to us all. "
Why then? Why there a regime dominated by the irrational, on which it is useless to investigate the reasons therefore: willing to commit suicide, to pull on the nuclear annihilation of his opponents, but to harm. Why?
do not have to ask. Ask himself, is already trying to figure out 'why' of the Iranian regime, which is totally devoid of reason. Obviously, the "narrative" that the ruling is silent Israel is - that has all the means - to threaten Iran with military attack, so that Iran has any reason to acquire understandable, perhaps, of an atomic warhead deterrent (against 300 of vouchers).
Try to argue this, and you'll see your closest friends like rabid dogs bite. This is not "freedom"! The "moderate shoot at demonstrators." "But Israel has incinerated the Palestinians in Gaza ... but there is Hamas, terrorism, fundamentalism, "and so on ... my mother said that I had been brainwashed ... my wife that I'm exaggerating." In short, if not accepted as fiction, were already the terrorists.
Everything is based, as well known Dedefensa on humanitarian and moralistic vaguest ideas and thoughtful, that justifies us unload the consciousness: "we" are not terrorists, because "we" are doing humanitarian and humanitarian operations around the underdeveloped world (ask for the IMF, the World Bank ...); our governments (who may curse every day for corruption, waste public, collusion with the financial interests) are without comparison "more moral" than the schemes countries that we went to occupy, to pardon 'help' to leave. It is they who threaten us.
"They hate us for our freedom," he said as Bush jr. When launching the decrees 'Patriot Act', which permanently reduced (Obama has not abolished them) individual freedom.
It continues Dedefensa these vaguest concenzioni depend on humanitarian and moralistic 'primary ideology of' ideology 'American or Western ". That liberators ... "our arrival."
Instead of communism, the American ideology is "mainly characterized by the idea that is based on a general practice of freedom" (freedom of thought, opinion, expression, and we can add: freedom of enterprise, movement, to pursue their private pleasures and purposes).
Obviously, with so much "Bengodi" we do not have questions about the strange outcome of such "freedom", which leads us to want the same things freely, to aspire to the same objects provided by the market to see the same shows on TV; to voluntarily reduce our freedom of expression within the limits of conformity of iron, to share the same fears (heating global), dictated the same purpose among those admitted, and not others. Nobody
low alarm that the result of such freedom is a homogenization of society has never seen before, so that travel throughout the West means finding the same windows, the same things cheap, standard-the same opinions, and even the exact same transgressions, so that travel no longer means anything out, just go from one airport to another, from one control "security" to the other . A security system increasingly asphyxiating (body searches, suitcases open) happily accept that because - says the narrative - our system of guarantees "freedom" is threatened by "terrorists".
to safeguard our freedom, we give them a bit 'more every day.
Ireland is made to vote and vote again until, finally, says the obligatory "yes" the European Constitution, and the result is that there will Tony Blair as president, none of us voted. Tony Blair: the EU will be presided over by an Englishman, that a country that did not accept the euro, and an individual who has contributed to the war in Iraq and Afghanistan ordered by Bush, or rather his handlers pro-Israel.
None of this seems at odds with our general practice so of all freedoms. After all, what is now the "freedom"? Even the meaning of the term has changed a few decades ago, it was intended and individual political freedom, habeas corpus, voting, national independence and today, in essence, is the 'sexual freedom' because we have already taken other farcene without noticing ...
we have been sold to the global market without it they do ask, we are directing people to have known before, and they voted, they changed the currency and the country is not ours ... we accept all this without knowing it ... but woe to that reproach.
This is much more comfortable for the oligarchic powers: freedom of sexual harm there than they want, as long as we forget to demand political freedom, to be citizens rather than consumers and taxpayers. After all Tony Blair has run recently made a Catholic and a Catholic, he immediately began to break spears gay rights and the marriage of priests (also gay), and will also be the first president not voted in
end of Europe ... Is not that what counts? It is not clear from this that we are free? How Carfagna says, is our 'values'; Muslims do not have them, why them free: by their obscurantism. Enslaved them politically, but give him sexual freedom. Is not consistent?
fact, Dedefensa note, the virtual 'from' impression of coherence and cohesion ", from where it draws its character of 'system'. It is based on the fact that every person "is not perceived clearly, as could be in the gulag, as a jailer or prisoner" forced freedom.
"The humanitarian and moral investment," moreover, gives the system (which is not declared as such, but instead as "open") meaning and justification. In the new totalitarianism, not the party that sends you to the gulag: they are the guests of the gulag you break out against you and bite like rabid dogs if sgarra ideologically, because the system meets the "beliefs of the actors," are the victims , are the executioners.
objects to gay parades? You are against our "freedom" (sexual), ecclesiastical obscurantism want us back, coercion, inquisition ... Are you against the "achievements" of freedom West. How did they react this way?
Why does the system, despite its obvious moral flaws and inconsistencies, guarantees "the psychological comfort in its fullness."
And 'This is perhaps the central point, the novelty compared to totalitarian systems. The ideologies of the twentieth century gave their militants only "intellectual comfort", they provided the means alleged philosophical and "scientific" to interpret the world, and to change it with fire and sword. The new ideology does not appeal to the intellect, nor to any vision of reality is to make you "feel good about yourself." And this is invincible.
There is no argument that can who wants to get a 'feel good about himself, "and that" feels good about himself' imaginary universe where "we" are humanitarian, moral and free, and 'them' no, as demonstrated by the fact that " we do what we want, "and" buy what we want, "because there are two hundred kinds of mobile phones on display.
And 'in fact the defining character of human mass: one for whom "to live is to be what already is." And what comforts the mass psychology of conformity than iron clad well-intentioned, politically correct, as confirmed by TV and bureaucracies?
Now you understand why the people who frequent, family, friends and colleagues believe that a normal person, just put a doubt, Sept. 11, about bin Laden, or the "global warming", not only do not believe you, but you break out against. Any intrusion of reality into the dominant narrative makes them "feel bad about themselves," and that, because it can not be integrated in the system of "freedom" in which it is locked up so nicely.
We will "turn the other cheek" and our sympathy to the friends that we bite the hand when we send the latest news "alternative" that questions the moral goodness of its governments, that notification progressive loss of political freedom in exchange for sexual freedom?
really. Because that defending our knowledge that makes hydrophobic with forbidden knowledge, is the opposite of the world full of meaning. It 'a world that protects you without reason, because it is unreasonable. So much so totalitarian, that even those who create it - the oligarchic power up to journalists - believe their own narrative, the "feel good" in their false coherence and cohesion, and even the crimes they commit in the name of "general practice of freedom "and humanitarianism. Which puts the Westerner in a new obscurantism, intensity never seen before, and makes it unable to meet the challenges of reality and history, as was never in the past three millennia. And 'man' liberated 'that we must wake up and leave, before the reality comes knocking at the door. How
Dedefensa says: "The difference" is that "the power of the devices, media, advertising, etc., not only helps to create a wall around himself, but a world around him." The global virtual world of Americanism, which, in fact, is crumbling before our eyes closed. We take it for granted that political freedom and good intentions of governments that have not voted, and we know the fallacy, because "We're good about ourselves": this will last until the last collective illusion that there is plenty, there is social security, ensuring that the system really is because the water drops from the tap every time you open the door, that electricity will continue to light our homes, that the system really cares for our own good, and supervise our rights as we give so many "freedom".
this world, not the wall that has been created around with virtual means, is the dream of men in the Platonic cave. Soon discover that no one shall the water flow from the tap, which banks and finance has devoured our social security, which our money is no longer accepted by the supermarket, that our governments are ready to kill, to sell us as slaves of the 'markets' and of commercials are already doing.
wake up, because we are dependent beings in our vital needs of a system which can not be trusted, that cradle us and comforts us psychologically, is a deadly superstition.
In fact, the all-encompassing power of the system also relies strongly on the collective loss of knowledge as "uniform culture" as the "universitas", which was always tension in Europe.
I believe that more can be easy to make an attack while driving a Boeing 707, because have not the slightest idea of \u200b\u200bthe complexities and limitations of such a technological device. Most believe that "it would be impossible to bring tons of explosives in the Twin Towers without being noticed" because (as Pierluigi Battista del Corriere) do not know that the Twin Towers had 155 lifts and evictions and removals were made daily from offices in skyscrapers hire. Most people do not ask why, if health authorities say that the swine flu virus could mutate at any moment, what sense does it make in advance of vaccines, millions of doses, which may be ineffective? Most believe evolutionism because it ignores all mechanisms actual DNA, and even scientists do not know about other specialties, although (typically scientists) as a mathematician Odifreddi I think I know, the theme is elusive even to the molecular geneticists in the forefront. Odifreddi then, having a diploma as a surveyor, do not even know the magnitude of what we do not know, and therefore, considers everything that can not be 'not important'.
In Italy, the grammar school was to maintain the unity of knowledge, including scientific and humanistic besides the historical and now tension has completely abandoned, and the man is replaced by the wild caught specialist. More generally, modern man lives in a world highly Overall, between flying objects, satellite, chemical, electronic and legal institutions and policies extraordinarily complicated, indecipherable world events, psycho-sophisticated disinformation, which has no first hand knowledge: only 'heard', clichés, summary certainties learned third-hand from TG. It should be alarmed, but he feels good about himself because he is convinced that "someone" know, "someone" knows how to handle that complexity, rather it is doing well, and the care of this someone is not to be lacking to him, man mass dependent and non-thinking, the psychological comfort that follows him. Yet, the behavior of high finance and central bankers in this crisis, everyone must draw the opposite conclusion.
