Monarchists distrusted middle class power because the bourgeois were good at going to jobs and making money, but not at the type of leadership decisions that produce long-term stability.
In fact, the middle classes are famous for embracing trends and hacks instead of enduring solutions. Mostly what they do is subsidize problems and declare victory.
They are, in short, the easy answers people that destroy anything they touch with their incompetence. They choose answers that make them seem clever and solutions seem easy.
This dominance by appearance is part of Crowdism, which is how human individualists working together adopt a collectivist mentality based in denying reality.
With this sudden distrust of the “truth” upon which our society is based comes another sobering thought: for things to get this out of control, where we are controlled by predators who seem oblivious to our future, something must be fundamentally wrong about the way we’re governing ourselves.
Think for a moment: what sort of problem is it that one cannot identify and root out? The simple answer: one you cannot tell to another person, and therefore, even if you know it, no one else can work on the problem – and in modern society, every problem is too big for one man. Imagine working with another police inspector on this case. You can tell the guy everything except that which might potentially hurt his feelings. So the investigation goes on, and despite your partner being slower than you are, he puts his heart into it. At the end you have no answers, because both of you don’t know the answer, even though it’s in your knowledge.
It is a belief system based on appearances: emotions come before logic, personal boundaries come before the necessity of doing what is right for all, and abstract divisions of “good” and “evil” regarding intent come before a realization of the effect of any action. In short, this is a belief system which manipulates by preventing certain actions rather than by recommending others, and it attacks before any action is ever committed.
When we remove all the irrelevant theory, what becomes clear is that this is a belief system designed to protect a type of person; that is why its negative, preemptive assessment. It does not have a goal. It does not have an ideology. It is wholly negative in nature, in that it identifies certain things that are destabilizing to those who find it important, and it attempts to censure and criminalize those. It in fact replaces the idea of having a goal with the idea of not doing wrong, and thus restricts what can be done to those whose actions might be so selfish that any sort of goal would conflict with them. These sort of people might be described as passive criminals, then, since what they do is not outright criminal, but by being what is done instead of pursuing a healthy goal, and by requiring a morality that prevents others from interrupting it, it supplants the seeking of a healthy goal. It is thus a crime of omission if nothing else.
This original essay confounds many readers because it wraps so many ideas into one post that it is like memorizing a topographic map of Patagonia in order to understand geometry. However it makes the big points:
- Civilization decay starts with an unconscious ideology. People do not realize the decision they are making because it seems easy and natural.
- Good intentions are both the cause of this and the excuse for not changing it. How can you criticize someone who means well?
- Peer pressure is its root in that anyone who brings up an idea that offends another person is seen as the aggressor and aggression as “bad” in any context.
- Means-over-ends analyses arise from choosing a morality based on what offends others. Aggression is presumed to be both cause and effect of itself (war) in social analysis.
- Passivity is its core, namely being unwilling to intervene where it is socially unacceptable or troubling, and allowing decay to rise.
- Personal boundaries become more important than reality when a society is wealthy enough to indulge this pretense.
- Jobs are placed at risk by violating personal boundaries, so the new religion of the workers always becomes the idea that any criticism that seems personal is taboo.
So why are so many of the wealthy socialists and communists who adore diversity? They are the people who succeed at the Crowdist system, and so they learned early on how to manipulate others.
If we distill Crowdism to its essence, it is pure manipulation: it indulges the pretense of being in power/control by the individual by preventing criticism of that individual.
If you are investigating a case, and you think the impoverished disabled homosexual midget minority woman did it, this is a harder sell than finding some rich white guy and blaming him.
Groups of people love scapegoating but also unite around a victim, because all they have in common are negative judgments of the world, and they project themselves onto any victim.
Ultimately Crowdism simply reflects flocking or herding behavior: individual animals stay away from ideas that upset others, and therefore gravitate toward ideas that please human pretenses of importance.
Political Correctness just made this into a formal method.
Everyone in a Crowd sees himself as a victim. He wants to preserve his personal pretenses as boundaries so that he is safe from attack.
Because he knows that some level he is not as competent as he thinks he is, he is forever paranoid and runs through scenarios in his mind where others wrong him and he gets revenge.
This bourgeois mentality reflects those in the center of the Bell Curve: not smart enough to be able to handle nuance, they cling to big bold symbols and ikons.
The upper half of the middle class ultimately cons itself by repeating the same dogma at each other simply because it is popular, and then making the mistake of believing it.
Your true winners in society give nods to the dogma but know from an early age that it is merely a con, a scam, and a manipulation. You repeat it in public but never believe it.
When jobs, careers, and corporate jobs take over… suddenly the people with wealth are not naturally competent ones, only those good at education and soft skills.
Consider a company expanding into a new international market. To succeed, it must invest in cultural research, adapt its operations to regional norms and align with local regulations—demonstrating adaptability at both strategic and operational levels.
Empathy not only fosters trust and respect, but it also helps leaders make decisions that balance organizational goals with human needs. More broadly, empathetic leaders create inclusive environments and build stronger relationships.
When teams collaborate well, they bring diverse perspectives that can foster creativity and efficiency. The ability to communicate openly and work together is crucial for navigating complex problems and driving organizational success.
Adaptability, empathy, and inclusivity are manipulations. These are methods and not goals, which makes them for sale to the highest bidder.
You may note that these skills sound a lot like both political correctness and peer pressure. They cater to the individualism of the human psyche, the “me first” that makes us easy to manipulate.
This arises from the defensive individual mind. We are small, irrelevant, fallible, and mortal in the grand scheme of things, so we project the opposite.
Jobs make this worse because they are based in means-over-ends. Soon we scapegoat reality and become anti-realistic in order to preserve our individualism.
Conservatives prioritize reality over the individual:
More and more I find myself thinking that a conservative is someone who regards this world with a basic affection, and wants to appreciate it as it is before he goes on to the always necessary work of making some rearrangements.
This creates a sense of order and holds Crowdism at bay. Jobs that provide money to the middle classes for doing relatively trivial tasks go the opposite direction, and create enabled DKE cases on power trips with a chip on their shoulders.
Those who fight through this morass of human ill behavior — something that can be avoided with an aristocratic system — get to the top by manipulating others, and over time, are seduced and deceived by those manipulations.
The One Ring in Tolkien is based on the ring of the Lydian in Plato and the magic ring in the Nibelungenlied, and it represents this confusion of means and ends, causes and effect, self and world, and manipulating others with truth that defines the middle-class mentality.
