In physics it is said that when an object needs to be moved that a single force vector does not move it, we rely on the so called system of forces: forces which may seem they push towards different directions but in combination to the original force that had been unable to move the object by itself, they fight against the resistances of this object and it finally does move.
Precisely this system of forces holds for the condition of the political scene as well: not only the political force of the government, but also of the opposition and the rest of the parliament parties do not contend each other. On the contrary, they create a system of forces the goal of which is to lead an object, that is the People, to a specific way of thinking and reacting which serves not the People, but the ones sapping them.
Especially in the case of Greece, the People are quite difficult to control and manipulate so that they become self-destructive, which is to have the People accept their constant oppression and the ever augmenting poverty, breaching of vested rights and annihilation of dignity. Many times they have shown intolerance where other Peoples do not, they have basically Democratic principles/ thought patterns (e.g. even now monarchy in Greece is an abhorrent thought and the concept of aristocracy or the bearing of noble titles/ preferential handling due to birth incurs anger) and combativeness.
How then can it be explained that there is still maintenance of an aristocratic class in Greece (the political dynasties and the rich land owners that either are presented as National benefactors, the capital holders- bankers- ship owners- industrialists that rose up after wars, occupations, juntas and other dark skirmishes of recent international history) and that there is still, despite the discontent, nepotism in the leadership of Greece? How can it be explained that without pretence founding principles of the Social State, Democracy and Human Rights are being abolished or undermined?
It can be explained because in the most rebellious nature, resistance and rebellion is created based on the conviction that there is a better choice that will replace the current situation. Nobody rebels against the situations or facts of life that are or are believed to be unchangeable rules of nature.
For example, nobody rebels against the fact that the sun rises and sets or against the fact that water boils at 100 degrees Celsius. There is no reason for it because there is no better choice, they are laws of nature and part of nature’s functionality.
That, then, which can make the People (any People) accept the above social condition is to successfully communicate that the above situation, with the dynasties, the constant undermining of the People’s everyday life, the treason and the below average competence at best is the law of nature of the political scene. It is the logic of ‘that’s the way things are’ that disarms even the most competent mind and curbs the strongest will.
How is that achieved by the force system of the political scene?
Very specific practices are followed:
1. the alternative political choices are presented as droll, irrelevant to the time and place, bankrupt, disorganized or failed: that is, beyond the dual choice between New liberalism with either a communicational strategy of right or leftish undertones, all the other choices of political parties (KKE/ Communist, SYRIZA/ Far left, Greens, LAOS/ Far right, etc) are essentially weakened or completely cancelled by their own leadership, so that no other choice can be allowed to be available save the particular two. A classic example remains the KKE (Communist Party) but this year we must also add SYRIZA especially, which with the whole process of the 11 leaders in essence averted the influx of votes to it, even with election results being as they are.
2. the common direction of PASOK and New Democracy completes itself regarding the communicational policy employed, and depending on how much tolerance there is in the People they promote either the one or the other party to continue the very stable and unchanging anti-humanitarian policy of New Liberalism and the abolition of the National and social values.
3. the common direction is presented as a law of nature and any other choice as total catastrophe and chaos. Thus none of the parties makes it seem even thinkable to not cooperate with whoever comes from the EU, in essence submitting to him/her at the expense of the People, the State and the Nation, not because they are not aware they can simply refuse to cooperate but because they want to communicate to the People that the People are not supposed to think it thinkable, no matter how much what the emissary from the EU is demanding is heinous, inhuman or idiotic.
This system of forces is designed to produce obedience and submission with passive tolerance by the People, just like the serf of the slave earlier accepted whatever was told to him/her by the master obediently and subdued, because he/she believed that he/she would not be able to otherwise exist or fight for something better.
So now that PASOK is in government in a terribly tough, for totalitarian rulers, era in Greece, the system of forces has adjusted so that there will be no avenue given to thoughts and tendencies of disapproval by the People, since it is clear that at this time disapproval can very easily be converted into action: PASOK is presented as unified and dynamic, has a very good communicational policy on the level of propaganda of the scope of pre-war Germany, the opposition is in ruins (New Democracy comes across as imploding, the rest of the parties are hardly heard and the impression is that there is no other party in action except the governing one) and the rhythms are ever accelerating, especially in sectors that constitute societal levers. The speed in combination with the lack of objections, the continuous propaganda on superficial things (such as, for example, the environment and the clothes of the ministers, their schedule and their impressions or announcements without, however, actual time tables and clear information on the general coordinated policy that is being following, including its pros and cons) in all the mass media upon which traditionally the People rely on to be informed and evaluate the governments they have employed, takes away the capacity for timely information and therefore timely reaction on issues.
For example, the week that the issue of the emptied out officesof the ministers and relevant things, there was no information at all on the issues that are currently unraveling internationally and are going to directly affect us such as the biometric passports and the opening of the borders of Greece towards the Turks, Skopjans, Bulgarians and very soon (in 2010) towards the Albanians for mobility and work/ migration/ living without control and without visas or any other type of restriction in our country (and other countries of the EU based on the White List of Schengen).
The fact that nobody mentions such crucial and current issues that will change the quality of our life and our daily living, abolishing our State and undoing the Nation (just bear in mind that colonization will be permitted and therefore ‘minorities’ will pop up like mushrooms and grow until the moment that with the Lisbon Treaty the borders will be completely taken down, with everything this means and signified) shows the complicity of all without exception the political parties and the politicians (of who a staggering percentage is people of law, and the Treaties, Lists and Maps that they are signing at this time are all legal documents which cannot stand legally and could either be completely shot down or strategically used for Greece and the other Peoples, without the undoing of any country as is being sought by the big capital holder oligarchs).
The fact that no journalist or channel or newspaper makes a mentions of these things also shows their complicity as well as the harmonious cooperation in the propaganda of the political parties. Everything points to the fact that all without exception are working for the same masters who are the enemy of the Peoples. We can ascertain that from a different avenue as well, seeing just who the channel and media owners are, from which families they are descended or marry into.
In our coming articles, beyond the analysis and commentary on the current stories of the mass media we will analyze and mention news that are not reported by the mass media but one can easily find in the publishing of the EU itself and related organizations.
