Co-Dependence And Social Cohesion
Social cohesion is one of those phrases used by the intellectually unscrupulous or non-rigorous to describe a fictional state of affairs that they wish to realise.
'Golden epochs' of history are dragged into reluctant exposure, reluctant because they can't stand too much of it, and for reasons of demonstration that should lead enough influental people into believing that Social Cohesion is a desirable good.
Social cohesion, the argument goes, is what allowed our ancestors/parents/grandparents(the apes?) to 'get along', in contrast with today's world of chaos and conflict.
They don't say that without social cohesion World Wars are now pub brawls, but never mind.
As a result of this illegitimate desire for social cohesion, the endemic climate of co-dependency in Europe(which does seem particularly to have identified people like us as its targets-funny, that), is something that these exponents look upon with a toleration approaching fondness.
This is because they know( and now we do too) that Co-Dependent conquest is the format of social cohesiveness that creates Empires out of common prejudices, and is the sort of throwback that may one day return us to the glory days(always tempered and sublimated, of course, by the 'lessons of history'.)
He who forgets is doomed to repeat! They like this one, because they can claim peace while laying the foundations of domination. It is also their way of saying "millions may die, but cohesion goes on !"
So, individually applied Co-dependent assault is a primary method; we have our 'sharp edges(identity) knocked off'.
We become 'more rounded'(like Jello molds).
We learn to get along(Unconditional surrender).
Eventually we take our place in the masses, like any lump of bio-mass.
And the structures of the independent mind, be they legal or social, are flattened and replaced by openly insurrective power-play; closed doors aren't necessary to hide this exploitation, becase they have already closed our minds.
The State?
A mere bagatelle.
At least in Britain it is. Because our 'constitution' is unwritten. So it has always been disposed by power play.
Only the nature of the players has changed.
Who needs a revolution when you can have a Velvet Putsch?
And what is there left to stand up to them?
Our rebels are conformists before they even get off the blocks.
They can't be frightened.
They can't be bought.
But after growing up in this culture, they can't be in any sense.
They don't know how.There are no signposts(taken down to confuse).
There are no social institutions which have not been swallowed up by the hordes of the co-dependent.
At least, that is what the manipulators hope for. In direct conflict with their avowed ambition of a 'commonality' of experience, and 'reasonably', outcome.
We'll see.
There are signs that the old beasts still have some teeth.We may be able to fight back.
But only if we know who, what and why.
