Any conservative society (any society of tradition, traditional society) has clear criteria for social distinction. In other words, traditional society is distinguished by the presence of apparent strata, classes, and castes (the latter two have the most negative connotations). Therefore, any momentary relaxation during the purchase is pleasant in itself. A short, fat, and ugly customer wants to buy more goods and listen to the flattery of the huckster.
So, you don’t have to go to the market, and you don’t have to buy anything else. You can immediately choose your favorite seller as the mayor of the city.
The moment of transition from mass purchases to mass communication «for love» was described by Dale Carnegie. He wrote a training manual for all young buyers. From now on and forever, people try to sell themselves as a commodity with exceptional politeness, services, and silence – when another speaks. Those who are ready to listen and praise have a better chance, as Carnegie recommended to all low, fat, and other moral freaks to be hypocrites and chameleons. Whoever praises you will win!
That’s how playing with petty self-esteem turned into a means of control.
I’ve already told you. Before this tool took shape, people learned to sell and buy everything. The easier, faster, and more profitable it is, the more pleasant it is. Hence, the first mayor of Huckster, as I said.
From the mayor of the merchant to the government of the rootless is not very far either. And this mechanism also has a psychological spring of mass petty selfishness.
The first thing the government of Liberals and Democrats did was anathematize the old regime and state control, ridiculed officials, and conservative values. There is no duty, no service, no morality, no homeland. There is only one goal – pleasure, making a profit, and making a profit to have fun – laissez-faire!
The victory of upstarts and rootless people worldwide testifies to the fertility of all sorts of rabble. In addition, it is about the insidiousness and boundless imagination of the lower classes.
Do you think that with the proclamation of the power of an upstart mayor, a government from the smallest rootless rabble, all conservative values have disappeared?
You will be surprised. This miracle will be for you. Hierarchies do not disappear anywhere, hence classes and castes. And it was precisely because of the general crisis created by every hypocritical liberal creature because of their coveted insatiability, genetic greed (in the first generations anyway) – about it Karl Marx wrote in his Manifesto. The free market of philistines highlights and monstrously emphasizes property inequality. Napoleon himself was fucked up by what the French nouveau riche were doing.
All the nouveau riche creatures, without exception, are engaged in imitation of the aristocracy, but they do it pretentiously wildly.
But they can’t be an aristocracy! Couldn’t. And now they can’t.
And they climb into power solely for personal enrichment. To be praised by voters and hangers-on, as if Refags – their new politicians buys from them (but not the goods, but the votes).
Sellers have always weighed a moral crisis in the crisis of conservative values.
When the old elite got old. When the old elite is overflowing with incompetent descendants of heroes.
Chapter 15
Be a Kazakh
Where does patriotism come from? Where did the motherland come from?
The same question can be asked: where does despotism come from, and where does democracy come from? In other words, you would know what is what when there is an external and internal migration. When mass migration occurs, everything falls into place. Migrants do not need an old homeland. It abandoned them, and these people betrayed their homeland (such mutual contempt). However, you can’t throw the words out of the song. People are often overcome by nostalgia, and successful people are strongly remembered at home. What is broken cannot be glued together. This is not a sentimental foreplay. This is the clarification of the monster. A migrant never knows the word homeland, no matter how often he utters it in public and does not talk about it. Once betrayed, he will betray again. This is mutual hostility, invisible to the eyes of others. No one will ever see this struggle (just as no one will hear the thoughts of an orphan). It is only in the second generation that migrant children pronounce the word love. You can’t force migrant children back to return to the land of their fathers. From that moment on, democracy is born. That is, democracy is the homeland of all emigrant children, even though they have not yet been born until they know it. But when they are born, their parents try very hard to ensure they get a good homeland, that is, that the children have everything – and what is kindness? That is so that the children have property and land. There is no need for any other care. That’s how all the American Aborigines lost their lands.
The Indians, in turn, could pronounce the word homeland, but not because all the owners’ peoples understood this word. The Indians did not have a homeland like the Europeans, but they had a territory where they hunted. They did not have time to call their homeland their homeland, so they had to have an «Asian despotism.» The one in the form of the rarest wild civilizations of the Maya, Incas, and Aztecs, which was pilloried by the conquistadors and their descendants. In the civilizations of the Maya, Incas, and Aztecs, with one eye, everyone would see the causes of despotism. Despotisms, autocracies, and totalitarian systems are typical of the old homeland of migrants (that is, a world without democrats and their descendants). While migrant children are settling in, they are always democrats and bequeath democracy to the future (and then impose it on the whole world, by the way).
Just like that, we playfully answer the greatest mystery of mankind – where Asian despotism and Western democracy come from.
If you want a democratic system, migrate wherever you can, even to the moon. And there, download the rights to local lunatics. If you can’t move far away, then you are a backward person (at the moment, anyway). But all the nomads left on earth, or their descendants, want to build democracy according to European patterns. It’s like if all the Maya, Inca, Aymara, and Iroquois Indians are dressed in tailcoats – none of this will work. There is an inevitable evolutionary line (accumulation of skills, collection of experience) that cannot be jumped over (as one cannot jump over formations, although Marxist Bolsheviks tried to work miracles)
No matter what the nomads build, what they do not declare, or do not glorify, there will still be nomadism, and there will still be autocracy. Of course, it will differ from the Asian wildness, from the «Asiatic» – according to the Europeanized, but it will still be the khan’s prerogative (if we mean the nomadic Turks, then the Kazakhs as well). Nomads do not understand the word homeland by idea. No, of course, according to textbooks, manuals, and the system, all descendants pronounce this word. But these are all words for the air. Millions of nomads can pronounce this word in the chorus but do not understand (in fact, they will breed corruption of unprecedented proportions). For the concept of homeland to float across the sky at this moment, it is not obliged to travel through the historical epochs of European peoples. The people of the owners who had property came up with this word. First, these people settled down and stopped wandering. Therefore, they divided the plots and put up family signs.
However, what is done is done. The nomads had no experience signing land, but
