BAKUNIN AND JEFFERSON: There are many ways I can illustrate that Stalin was
CEO of Russia on behalf of
international financiers that include Lord Rothschild who told
Czar he would do what he did. Stalin was a Catholic trained seminarian. Here is Noam Chomsky making a most important connection. Politics has become something totally absurd. We see Mr. Chomsky makes a good case for something quite
opposite of what people call democracy, being in fact, social engineering by elites.
“A similar move from Stalinist commissar to celebration of America is quite standard in modern history, and it doesn't require much of a shift in values, just a shift in judgment as to where power lies.
Independently of Jefferson and Bakunin, others were coming to
same understanding in
nineteenth century. One of
leading American intellectuals was Charles Francis Adams, who in 1880 described
rise of what is now called
"post-industrial society" by Daniel Bell and Robert Reich and John Kenneth Galbraith and others. This is 1880, remember. A society in which, Adams says, ‘the future is in
hands of our universities, our schools, our specialists, our scientific men and our writers and those who do
actual work of management in
ideological and economic institutions.’ Nowadays they're called
"technocratic elite" and
"action intellectuals" or
new class or some other similar term. Adams, back in 1880, concluded that ‘the first object of thinking citizens, therefore, should be not to keep one or another political party in power, but to insist on order and submission to law.’ Meaning that
elites should be permitted to function in what's called "technocratic isolation," by
World Bank -- I'm being a little anachronistic here, that's modern lingo -- or, as
London Economist puts
idea today, ‘policy should be insulated from politics.’ That's
case in free Poland, they assure their readers, so they don't have to be concerned about
fact that people are calling for something quite different in free elections. They can do what they like in
elections, but since policy is insulated from politics and technocratic insulation proceeds, it really doesn't matter. That's democracy.
