Part
4 - Takes two to tango
Concerning
Putin, yes I personally believe that Russians probably meddled in the
US elections, but Putin was caught doing… what exactly? Just what
the US is doing regularly and massively itself, except in their case,
they call it the defence of democracy?
So yes,
Trump is a monster, and when he designated himself as a "stable
genius," we should read this as a direct reversal of truth –
he is an unstable idiot who disturbs the establishment. But as such,
he is a symptom, an effect of what is wrong with the establishment
itself. And the true Monster is the very establishment shocked by
Trump's actions.
The
panicky reaction to Trump's latest acts demonstrates that he is
undermining and destabilizing the US political establishment and its
ideology.
So our
conclusion should be: yes, the situation is dangerous, there is
uncertainty and elements of chaos in international relations – but
it is here that we should remember Mao's old motto: "There is
great disorder under the sky, so the situation is excellent!"
Let's
not lose our nerve. Instead, we can exploit the confusion by
systematically organizing another anti-establishment front from the
left.
The
signs are clear here – the surprising electoral victory of
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a self-proclaimed democratic socialist,
against 10-term House incumbent Joe Crowley in a New York
congressional primary was, hopefully, the first in the series of
shocks that will transform the Democratic Party. People like her, and
not the well-known, and tired, faces from the liberal establishment,
should be our answer to Trump.
