What do people always lack at all times in the hierarchy? A higher rank is missing, and there will not be enough for all high positions. (Many former Soviet citizens know that jeans, Coca – Cola, and gum have nothing to do with it. Only children of the party elite wore American jeans and chewed gum. Here is how comically the plebeian craving for elitism, which was expressed by suits, buttons, and collars in tsarist times, has shown itself – each class of officials has its own coat collar!).
CHAPTER III
TRADITION HAS THE EYES OF A TOAD
In a hierarchical community, if you fall down, no one needs you. At the bottom, everyone looks at the conditional top. In this form, traditional society is like a frog or toad, seeing all the blue sky, but not the slime of a swamp or the fungus from the bottom of a well. The conventional frog or toad does not care about the simplest life under her feet. Here is so, fallen from above down, still will be visible during the fall, even fractions of seconds, but this will be the last picture and further nonexistence. Every celestial knows this. And he knows that every frog’s watching for him. They are just similar in the direction of their eyes and attention. The fall itself will be sweet to all because no one wants to fall at the top. He would like to die quietly on the top. Even better with honor when he will be carried out feet first. And this is still the case.
I don’t know if I explained the reason for refusing to leave the government voluntarily in essence, but there is something in this for another problem in the same area.
The fact is that as soon as the coveted first place is released, many people rush in that direction, including those who do not deserve to be at the top. That is, everyone strives for power with every fiber of the traditional soul.
But why do applicants behave so irresponsibly because we know that traditional people are the most responsible in the world?
They are always responsible for their actions in society. Before the father, before the brothers, before the conscience of the ancestors and glory. But that doesn’t stop anyone. Is it because those same toad eyes don’t judge winners, but wait? Who should bow down and bring some of their harvests? Everyone is already waiting to see who will sit on the top to take their vegetables from the garden or the carcasses of the game from the hunt. The trays are ready. The backs of the obsequious servants are already bent in greeting the new boss. The toad’s eyes stared at it. The main thing is to get in there.
Otherwise, no unworthy person will take the risk. It was at the moment when the upstart was left alone with his more worthy opponent, surrounded by the traditional people, the ignorant crowd, that he could have every chance to seduce the crowd to take power. Because the danger has disappeared, there is no risk, no need for great talents. They only need to deal with populism. What is the reason for the same unscrupulousness of revolutionaries, that they forget that they are climbing ahead of other, talented men? Isn’t it with the same toad eyes of tradition?
And I’m sorry, what kind of revolutionaries are unscrupulous?
If these revolutionaries came from the traditional world of the traditional community, then the tradition itself explains it all. These same revolutionaries know very well that a society with eyes only looking up recognizes power, any power, even an alien one. It is necessary to take power. And then you can do whatever you want with this crowd. History is full of examples when not the best ones outstripped the more worthy and gifted ones in the struggle for power. But on their heads. Of course, the unworthy bypassed the worthy not always, but at a time when there was no direct danger.
Flatter right and left. Seduce with your kindness and simplicity. Promise mountains of gold. Yell as in the jungle, “We are of the same blood!” The crowd itself dislikes bright men. It likes simple people like itself. The crowd will choose its kind in the image and likeness – out of vanity.
CHAPTER IV
EYES ON THE FOREHEAD
The traditional man has eyes on his forehead to see movement at the top. Because he doesn’t watch what’s going on below, he can jump in any direction just like that. If he hurts someone like that, he will apologize. But this is because, at this moment, others are apologizing. If they do not observe the culture of respect, then they will not respect themselves because everyone who jumps to the side, back, or side is themselves. And everyone is the one whom they get jumped on. And he loves himself, though he doesn’t respect them. Well, in what way does he respect you? If he did not respect or pretend to respect himself intoxicated with his kind of jumpers, he would despise himself as he despises any lowered person. And now authorized and highly respected person in any way does not want to fall, lose power so that the eyes on the forehead of such traditional people do not stop looking at him. But each time, someone jumped from above, from the side, though from where, and at the same time did not always apologize for the attack. In general, superiority in the traditional community is important, including getting rid of random hit-and-run attacks so that fewer people step on their feet. They all have, once again, eyes on their foreheads. So obliges hierarchy or culture to simply say subordination. If there will be power, and there will be no.
In addition, the traditional people circle around the central core that no one sees, but everyone knows it is there. All people with eyes on the forehead are strung on this rod by invisible pins, but they manage to jump sideways but still without falling or rising above the border of the invisible pin, where they draw a line where they cannot jump. They jump around the pin at a certain level so that someone from below does not jump to them on the level and, at this time, jump to the side and to the sides a little higher. They jump to the side and to the sides to jump on the insolent from the lower conditional level. A superior easily shit on a subordinate. And the subordinate is silent or says thank you. An attack on the feet is the same signal that the next step will be on the head. According to the same principle, heads fly from below or, more precisely, those creatures with eyes on their foreheads that have lost the sense of proportion. Although it may be during the jumps to the side, to the sides, forward and back at their level, they are well-fed (relatively speaking, enriched). But if they fell. This means that they will be watched on every floor of the invisible central pillar. Can you jump on them or not? Can you step on your feet or not. If they lose or lose their money, they can turn into a caste of outcasts. To avoid falling into the cast of outcasts, all those who fall from the top quickly move (jump away with all their strength) to another space where there is no central rod on which all the jumpers are strung together. And since jumps are often accelerated as if everyone is trapped in a tight space, traditional people always feel that the surrounding space is sometimes narrowing; panic jumps begin at any level, so people with eyes in the middle do not get to the top.
But there are normal people. They are not sensitive, sighted, yielding, flattering, and still haven't the eyes on their foreheads. Let's call them conditionally talented because their view is somewhat broader. But if the view increases, it means that they are not so sensitive to movements from above and jump from the side. Hence, their non-viability and the explanation that they can not get to the top in any way, although the selection is not for jumping but for the eyes on the forehead.
There can even get Zerefs from other pyramids with a central hierarchical core, even from another nation, but the mandatory strict condition is eyes on the forehead. And increased sensitivity of the skin. For jumping sideways, no one ever stops for a second. So, that traditional people whose eyes began to see around, that is, in their own way, the talented did not get higher, conditionally not climbed on top, the Zerefs and Zeremids try to also shit or to make a vile, smiling maliciously. That is, they see that they are inferior in the competition, but they know that in this world, the selection is made by other eyes. Let them be oblique, large-tuft, narrow, blue, brown, but still, the eyes should be on the forehead. But they will still cheat and shit unnoticed because they initially consider themselves higher. In some families where the sons have a slightly different view of things, and we are talking here about traditional families, where the fathers of the family all the time with the installation that their eyes are always in place, and they are always right (the fathers are always right), will correct this deviation of the eyes not on the forehead (educate). At least something. Though directly, though meanness. If only the sons manage to jump a level higher so that the traditional fathers can see them, then any eyes would approve and accepted it. Even if these sons steal, rob, and are corrupt if they jump high in savage society, this is excellent for all wild people. They will glorify their father’s name, the name of their village, and the name of their family. And this is essential on the invisible rod, where everyone jumps sideways and sideways according to the same wild laws.
GLOSSARY:
Zerefs are community people whose behavior conforms to stringent standards. Taboo, morality, law. Their reflection is zero; therefore, their reflexes are rigidly set by the community, authorities, and law.
Remids are people of honor. Their reflection is average, and they are a conditional elite and conditional authority directing the members of the community – the Zerefs.
Refags represent the highest form of reflection, that of tradespeople. Selfish reflection is aimed at making a profit from underdeveloped or traditional people.
CHAPTER V
HUMBLE HYPOCRITE
Against loop of Remids.
The loop of Remids is struggled the Remids between themselves, after what ahead, as an option in power it turns out Zeref, a wild and strong-willed man. Out of pride, the best people, aristocrats, and intellectuals agree to let the fool go ahead of all the aristocrats so as not to regret it. And forward, they pass a sick or unhappy plebeian. This is a dispute between equals.
After Lenin’s death.
Does this mean that if the power is lying on the road or a real candidate is experiencing difficulties, a less talented one will pick it up? For example, what happened to the Bolsheviks after Lenin’s death?
For example, we take the attempt of Zinoviev, the Chairman of the Petrosovet, a member of the Politburo and Central Committee, and Kamenev, the Chairman of the Mossovet and head of the STO, to push aside the most talented in the Central Committee Trotsky, the Minister of war. After all, both knew that they would not pull responsibility and that their talents were lower than the LDT. Further, the party apparatus supported even more inconspicuous and mediocre Stalin. In 1936, Stalin executed Kamenev and Zinoviev – the logical conclusion of the Remid’s loop, when the most gifted come forward in the struggle of the most untalented. Then the most incompetent destroy them.
After Stalin’s death.
Beria was the most influential of the Soviet elite. But Malenkov and Khrushchev united against him, supported by Marshal Zhukov. Beria was shot. Malenkov was sure that the post of Chairman of the Council of Ministers was the main one (it was held once in the past by Lenin and Stalin). He recommended Stalin’s buffoon Khrushchev to lead the party. But he was very wrong. Who led the party, he has taken all.
Further.
It is unlikely that Khrushchev was the most talented, and the Remid’s loop here looks more like a Remids farce because all the participants are Zeremids and provincials (all were born in the villages and rose in official ranks thanks to the revolution of 1917 and the counter-revolution of 1937 by Stalin). In 1957, Stalin’s associates Molotov, Kaganovich, and Malenkov had already decided to remove Khrushchev. The most talented Bureau of the Presidium Bureau of the Central Committee, Marshal Zhukov said: “I will appeal to the people, the people will support me!” (to crush you – Molotov, Kaganovich, Malenkov). For these words, four months later, Zhukov was accused of Bonapartism and dismissed as Minister of defense of the USSR.
The farce of choice.
When Khrushchev was dismissed, no one wanted to come out on top. Everyone was afraid of Khrushchev’s reprisal. However, when the support of the security forces was guaranteed, the hardware people agreed on the ridiculous figure of Brezhnev, who in the midst of Khrushchev’s struggle with Molotov, Kaganovich, and Malenkov fainted at a meeting of the Bureau (almost like the elderly cardinal Jacques Dues, who was elected Pope in the hope that he would die immediately after the election. Dues during the Conclave portrayed himself all the time sick and dying at the Council of Cardinals, and they bought into this trick).
Finally, after the death of Andropov, 73-year-old Konstantin Chernenko was elected to the post of General Secretary and head of the USSR, “a diligent performer”, “never eager for power”, who from the very beginning of the Supreme Board was taken from his hospital bed, changed clothes and asked to read the prepared text. Isn’t this clear evidence of degradation and negative selection?!
Youth, not talent.
The most important argument when choosing the new leader of the USSR Gorbachev was not talent but only youth. Mikhail Gorbachev- the last leader of the USSR, is the son of a combined harvester. So much for the dictatorship of the proletariat! Where the most important thing was to be born somewhere in Siberia in the family of some slaughterer, locksmith, or village blacksmith. As we can see, the slogan of the dictatorship of the proletariat turned into a meme where the best was chosen from the worst. They chose from the majority of those who were more numerous in the country.
What are the conclusions?
The Remid’s loop is a struggle of the elite and the self-destruction of the best rulers as the result of “bad parenting”, hoping for the best, using the weakness of most worthy by reason of mandatory their modesty. If the most worthy is not modest (for example, Trotsky), they will immediately begin to displace him, reproach him and finally completely exclude him from the list of candidates.
Further, this selection does not end. For, in fact, it’s all the faults of tradition. It begins with modesty and ends with a majority vote. Those who are physically more are the ones who decide. And were physically more proletariat people were in the USSR? No. All these people were born in traditional families. Choosing not the kindest leader, but the worst for leadership but modest and not hurting the self-esteem of electors begins in the family. Do you remember the saying about a quiet heifer that sucks two cows?
Within families.
What kind of child do parents love? Who the sickest, weakest, most needy. Surprisingly, this family phenomenon of love, almost traditional, goes from the bottom to the top-in the apparatus of the party and government, where they also love the weakest and sickest (remember the physically ill and infirm Leonid Brezhnev and Konstantin Chernenko, who were “loved” by the people).
