Famous director Ridley Scott very accurately remarked after the box office fiasco of his film The Last Duel: “I think what it boils down to – what we’ve got today [are] the audiences who were brought up on these f***ing cell phones. The millennials never want to be taught anything unless they are told it on the cell phone”.

Ridley Scott is, of course, a monster of Hollywood directing; well, what do we care about the crisis of American cinema? However, we still have a case. Ignoring and even rejecting any classical, therefore, traditional direction at the same time is already a total crisis of world culture. Where is that audience increasing if the mass show industry loses an audience?

Previously, the classics of literature owned the minds of the planet. Today, clowns are on the mind of the planet. It is unnecessary to compare how much airtime is spent on all kinds of humorous shows today, and humor is in the price. The planet entertains itself as best it can. In addition, the entertainment world is supported by big business and, therefore, by politicians. Politicians worldwide got so carried away by populism that they became clowns. No, they have not yet appeared all in a row as clowns, although in some places, clowns took power. And this is not the limit of humor possibilities for the future. Literally, all politicians in the world are engaged in the hype, and they want to look like their own among their own. Diplomatic departments are overflowing with all kinds of talkers, although the language of diplomacy has always been specific and conservative. Now, because of technological capabilities, everything has become possible. And already diplomats hype, the highest politicians hype – not lag behind. They say they will push the nuclear button if necessary. When was this possible? Baby, this is democracy! Each politician will then refer to his popularity on social networks.

This book considers not only democracy as a stage for presidents – future clowns. If world politicians come to power after social networks to entertain and please again for five minutes, then politics will disappear as an activity. Only the politicians – clowns will remain. The planet has such a prospect because of the dominance of populism. In other respects, democracy has always been distinguished by flirting with voters since Ancient Athens. Today, technology allows politicians to make noise and be publicly rowdy so that they are watched more, for they are watched more and chosen faster.

In addition to the degradation of the profession of politicians, this book will show the degradation of authoritarianism. All monarchies, then the autocracy of the world, have always had and will have a request for stupid executive officials. Moreover, all officials of such regimes have never had leadership qualities; even in the USSR, they were recruited to power not by talents but by inoffensiveness. Empire versus nature? Yes, empires overflowed with weak officials who made careers for minor services to dictators during the decline. All empires inevitably ended because they lacked heroes, but thieves and corrupt officials were always abundant.

With such a joint degradation, the two main systems of the world have come to this point in time.

We started talking about cinema in 2006; the American film company 20th Century Fox made the comedy Idiocracy.

I also advise you to watch this comedy, for there is a joke in every joke. In 2022, the world will be several years closer to its future. However, in 2006, no real clown had power yet. It was just the beginning.

Chapter 1

People want to laugh all the time

“I propose to raise a revolution against the lie that the majority has a monopoly on the truth”.

Henrik Ibsen

“We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office.”

– Aesop

They say that this world appeared thanks to the explosion. In a few billion years, this world will disappear thanks to laughter. The laughter of all humankind will be so strong that the planet will not stand it and will be flooded with nuclear laughter.

Moreover, humanity will laugh heartily five minutes before the launch of ballistic missiles when the clown rulers jokingly press the button in the last reprise, which can still make people laugh. People will have no more reason to laugh because they will be under the impression of the next planetary news as stoned with marijuana. Nothing will cling to humanity anymore: neither grief, suffering, people’s troubles, nor even pornography as a manifestation of the very interesting instincts. Just laughter. And only laughter. As a forerunner of such a scenario, the appearance of clown presidents worldwide.

Someone says that clowns are given to people by world mafiosi. It benefits them that nations laugh during the pandemic. In fact, it is. But haven’t people wanted to see a funny freak for all the past ages? It also distracted them from their worries and mental problems. It’s better to see the freak and calm yourself down. Not everything is supposedly so bad. “O.K. Here he is, a freak, making me laugh; he’s funny, pathetic, and wants to make me laugh. And it’s funny to me, I feel good”. Where did all these political puppets come from now? They even declare they are ready to press the nuclear button. Why are they saying this? To make you laugh? No. Bye, to like. Politicians and diplomats of the past centuries are all boring and speak an incomprehensible professional language. And modern politics speak like real clowns. They want to please you and me. Let’s elect such politicians as presidents! It will be fun and pleasant for us.

I did not draw the appearance of clowns as a conspiracy of world elites who need clowns as presidents. I drew that clowns are the evolutionary need of the crowd of all time and people to laugh and forget their problems by observing a freak. Yes, rulers have used spectacles to distract the crowd from economic problems and political crises since the time of Rome. But what kind of crisis are we talking about with the triumph of democracy? No, there is no crisis. There is a need for people for drugs. And laughter is a very good drug. Presidents clowns want to please the crowd and its passions, so they try. What can there be anything else under a democracy?

Chapter 2

There are other situations

People need heroes only for the pain of death. During a democracy, all of humanity is moving towards the abyss to get smarter through war.

Does modern humanity resemble a dinosaur?

The main problem of modern humanity is the fear of leaders. Modern humanity agrees with the official government because it cannot do anything against it. And vice versa, no current government can ban or ignore these social networks. Social networks show a massive choice of buffoons, clowns, comedians, at the very least, dogs and cats, based on which the choice of helpless old men and other inarticulate leaders is made “with the help of democracy” – as we see, the current political bohemia and the world behind the scenes enjoy, and the fear of the crowd in front of real, natural leaders and itself already consists of such people.

Such a state of fear of the crowd in front of a man with a hard male character, each of whom causes envy and complexity of the electorate itself at the same time (social networks are an excellent slice of envy and complexes), gives an outlet to all sorts of scammers, hypocrites, spineless conformists, that is, populists who even outwardly look miserable, but do not cause envy and complexes at the moment of their screams. Populists, like the flesh and blood of a complex inert crowd, “their guys,” are taking great advantage of the situation. The crowd enjoys the audacity of an active crook, and it turns out to be self-satisfaction, another show of a political clown now.

Is it possible to blame a crowd of small, squeezed shell people in the current clowning, balancing at the moment on the brink of nuclear war, as the last show? Yes, it is possible and necessary. But first of all, you need to know that this is a democracy. Little people really want to see a show relaxing their self-esteem; the dinosaur of humanity turns out to have a very small head, and a huge body falls into the abyss when the dinosaur’s head chews a fern leaf.

Zerots men are not afraid of death, and they are afraid of shame.

Like aristocrats from the past, they don’t want to change.

So why does the traditional elite, the elite of the tribe, or the elite of the feudal lords – the Zerots – not want to change?

Actually, why should they change if that’s what you want?

The Zerots are not just unwilling to change; they are simply not trifles on the example of the clowns of democracy, to which everyone is accustomed. Modern people do not think strategically, do not plan, and do not anticipate fate for years before; they would like to live today’s day to the end and have fun, and Zerot is not; they would not. The Zerots don’t care about modern dance. They live like the characters of the Bible. They don’t just live for a few centuries – it doesn’t happen that way. That’s about how all the feudal lords of the nobility think. Zerots rule and change places only when the time is right. When sons grow up, the replacement will mature. And this replacement is their children. If not their sons, then the most worthy of the relatives change the ruler. Everything else is the whim of idiots who are used to living with the main characters all their lives in one movie session. And the crisis also plays on the desire to change the rulers. And again, only the selfishness of consumers generates a desire for the manager to leave. But he’s not leaving. Not because he is waiting for the next election. If he is a Zerot man, he is preparing a replacement for himself because the traditional elite has never consulted with the rabble. Only in very wild times, when anyone could reach the leader, would the leader yield. Well, then, not everyone would dare to take responsibility for the people’s lives. The elite is the elite. While some just live and perform the function of life from birth to old age, others are already waiting for death. Yes, the rabble is afraid of death, but Zerot is preparing for it. Zerot cares what they say about him. The Zerots inherit only their name and honor.

They behave as if they were born a long time ago.

And if a crisis has happened, what does it mean for Zerot men? Let’s get rid of our problems a little bit.

What is a crisis of tradition in general, and how does a crisis of tradition differ from a market one?

That’s just the mechanism or reasons for the replacement that will show all the differences between traditional thinking and consumer uniform.

For traditional peoples, a crisis or, more precisely, force majeure is when circumstances threaten life. And what threatens the fate or the prospect of living as always? It is as if some disaster has struck if the people do not get what they need to complete the annual cycle. And what made it possible to complete the annual cycle? These are, of course, edibles. Primitive technology and dependence on nature forced us to narrow it down. And first of all, they do not reproduce. If the farmers could afford to sit still, then the nomads were driven by the lack of food wherever they looked. If all the weak and sick died, would the leader be responsible for these losses?

Only a modern fool would come up with such an idea. No natural cataclysm would damage his authority. The first thought of primitive people is that it’s a common punishment. Supernatural strength of God. But here, the leader is not responsible for communicating with an unknown force. The time of such a crisis is the appearance of a priest on the stage. In modern terms, let’s say the Prime minister. His servants have not given something to the spirits or God. If we talk about the past, the primitive leaders of the past or leaders were responsible for defense or attack. If he is a farmer and a leader of farmers, then for defense; if he is a nomad, then for the attack. That’s what a traditional force majeure is! Only the failure of a military campaign (foreign policy in modern terms means) or even death causes rotation among the Zerot leaders. One by one, the young replace the old – change the old one or the loser or the deceased. If he loses, he is a coward; if he wins, he is a hero. And glory to him!

That is, every crisis, in modern economic terms, is the beginning of the movement of the elite in any direction. If the elite was nomadic in the past, it attacked; if it was agricultural, it held the defense. In the modern case of universalism, the crisis is overcome systematically – both by the defense (against sanctions) and attack (by an active foreign policy when much shit is in your camp). And even despite the general system and the surrounding universalism, Zerots are not chosen from the crowd by the so-called democratic elections; such elections cause only a lot of noise and confusion from their environment. Even modern oligarchs, for whom, it would seem, the gods are money, behave as if they were born under ancient feudalism because they were born in a traditional world and to a conservative culture; only after that did they become rich.

Chapter 3

The last battle. Smart vs. Traditional

The whole recent history of the world is the story of the confrontation of the smart against the traditional. Today, this confrontation is most acute and relevant. The clever Refags of the West are gaining the upper hand. Traditional communities will have no choice but crypto fascism, although fascism was not formed everywhere in Asia and did not even have such an opportunity. In Asia, fascism and communism converged in the face of traditional communities that did not clearly understand either the concept of a nation or the concept of communism. According to Marxism, the similarity turned out only in the form of terror of the poor against the rich. But, once again, Marxism or crypto-Marxism prevailed because market relations were poorly developed, nations were not formed, and peoples did not turn into one whole and in one form. Even today, Chinese communism or Korean more closely resemble feudal regimes with their ethnic specifics – an ancient culture based on an industrial revolution. Coups seem to have happened, modernization has taken place, and there has been stagnation in reflection. Reflection remained the same. From the tadpole of the collectivist, a master frog can always appear. The regimes will always be teetering on the brink of restoration according to the type of Russia. Because in Asia, traditional community members have put individuals under control, the Zerefs have prevailed over the smart ones. They prevailed physically – as always – with quantity and traditional morality. But who are the smart ones? How is this confrontation understood through reflection?

Smart.

In the manner of Western superiority, today, they are called personalities. Western reformers successfully introduced a culture of tolerance in the fledgling national capitalism. If savages do not appreciate and cannot appreciate talents until they feel the need, then let them learn to endure. Thus, the savages, because of an inferiority complex, learn tolerance and call each other personalities now. Although the traditionalists always have superiority in the first place locally. The new feudal elite and everyone with enough money feels good but are not yet individuals. They repeat that they love democracy and strive for it, but most of all, they are consumers, including words from smart Westerners who are honorary teachers for the Zerefs (for modern traditional people).

However, this does not mean that the past traditionalists have disappeared somewhere, disappeared among the personalities of corrupt officials, artists, comedians, millionaire athletes, and other propagandists of legislators. All those who did not fall into the categories of personalities held an act of revenge. The Zerefs don’t care what to call the smart ones – the main ones are their next upstarts. In the traditional world, there have never been personalities in the Western manner of sensuality. The traditionalists have all personalities – folk heroes. But the Zerefs still call everyone they don’t love one word – parasites and also “enemies of the people” and other enemies, as it has always been. The Zerefs have never distinguished the political sides of the smart ones. They despise the right under the name of liberals and the left under the name of Trotskyists. But, once again, who is it – a liberal that a Trotskyist does not matter to the Zerefs; for the traditionalists, it is the same thing because both of them – liberal and Trotskyist have broken away from the people. They think – the Zerefs are sure that they are better than everyone, better “the enemies of people” simply by the type of abilities and what abilities are unimportant. Smart versus traditional, a new round of confrontation begins.

Chapter 4

They will do everything themselves

But the Zerefs don’t want to tolerate each other. To understand this and the mechanism of manipulation of Zeref weaknesses, you need to go back and see the roots of Zeref intolerance in the past.

Zerefs, are relatives; relatives are quite tolerant. The Zerefs are intolerant only to strangers, not to their own, who are not relatives to them. For their own, they are more than friendly; they are obliged to help each other to survive, if anything, to stand up for their kind – they are sacrificial. Moreover, they are connected by blood ties with each other.

But why are the Zerefs suddenly changing?

Maybe because strangers have penetrated their family circle? Exactly. As soon as the foreigners enter the village, they immediately strain the Zerefs. Nature has made it so that no one can break the bonds of kinship. Strangers can infiltrate or disturb neighbors if only the population has increased, extra people of a neighboring tribe have found themselves on the border, and maybe even the aggressors have come specifically for the purpose of capture. In revcon, overpopulation is called a Zeref loop. Tradition sets the only task for the male half of humanity. Every Zeref is obliged to continue his family. Fulfilling this divine commandment (to be fruitful and multiply), Zeref is the founder of the genus. And when each of his last children does the same, a clash between the increased number of births is inevitable. It won’t happen right away. Maybe it will take centuries. But sooner or later, one tribe will attack another. The most primitive illustration of such a clash is the Great Migration of peoples in the IV century. The overpopulation of traditional population areas is the source of zero tolerance. This intolerance does not depend on time. It is always there as long as there is a tradition. As long as there is at least one traditional person. Of course, technical achievements do not prevent these collisions. If there is no change in morals, the Zerefs remain intolerant pagans; the first thing they will do is attack. If morality is subjected to a decrease in kinship, a decrease in the importance and role of blood, then the Zerefs are subjected to great embarrassment. With the arrival of the prophet of enlightenment, they seem to meet their own mirror. Not all Zerefs accept it, agree, and get down. Most protest and disagree. The fate of all the saints, in this case, is predetermined. Zerefs don’t like to look at themselves in the mirror. The Zerefs love it when someone praises them. (This childhood habit is so tenacious that the traditional upbringing is the key to understanding such a phenomenon of modernity as nationalism). If the attempt at enlightenment or the transition to a new reflection is delayed, then a false prophet, or the most agile group of greedy and cunning populists, necessarily replaces the prophet in the main square. This fanatic does not differ at all from his primitive prototype. Let them be separated by centuries, but before you – all the same, Zeref is a relative. He is, of course, also irreconcilable with outsiders. He certainly says that the precepts of antiquity and the parting words of the ancestors remain the most important for his people. The ancestors also said, listening to real prophets’ notifications, – be fruitful and multiply! If the populist Zeref did not accept the moral precepts of the reformation, he would guide the crowd according to even older precepts. In general, the conflict of morality leads to a collision. And then all the moralists who have met another overpopulation – a zeref loop, are subject to obstruction. If you want to know why the false prophets are directing the crowd at the old moralists (or intellectuals and other clever people), they get rid of competitors. The time of the zeref loop immediately revives the Remid one. What is a remide loop? It is when the simplest one stands out from the group of worthy ones (from the existing, acting elite). This most primitive does not look like either the former aristocracy or the false populist from the square; he is nobody at all. But all likely applicants like him precisely because of his insignificance. The time of the zeref loop or the overflow of borders by the people creates pressure on the elite, and it also degrades along with the people. The elite’s Remids squeeze out a gray mouse from their environment to the surface – the worst of the brilliant ranks, just because it’s time for physical overflow. Highlighting the worst is a reaction and, simultaneously, a signal to attack. The Zeref loop is not only a time of economic crisis but also a time of growth of contenders for power. Because everyone wants to be an elite, to be in the upper strata, the current morality disappears. From this, the worst and the insignificant change places with the best and the noble; the lower ones turn into the upper ones (not all, of course, as this is physically impossible), and the upper ones go down. The philistine, the ordinary philistine, immediately complains that everything human is disappearing. People turn into antipodes. There is no solidarity, former union, or corporatism, only lies, deception, cunningness, adaptability, and even violence – the peak of the Zeref celebration and redistribution. This gives a signal that in a pre-cultural world, a primitive movement is coming. It was as if strangers had come, and all the people had rebelled against this coming. As usual, this phenomenon is called fascism now. Almost the nation welcomes self-praise and the likely seizure of someone else’s territory. But the most important thing is not the overflow of people, not the crisis of extra mouths, and therefore, extra people who cannot be fed – this is the growth in the number of candidates for power. The physical growth of not the people but the applicants. When there are many applicants and the base is old, morality turns from human into hateful; morality turns into anti-morality, and everyone wants to rise at the expense of humiliating others. And these heads, on which all the applicants want to walk, are not necessarily representatives of other ethnic groups (clans). If there are many applicants but few places, a signal is received – the morality does not correspond to the moment, then all the applicants want their people. To untie their hands, the applicants begin to denounce competitors and immediately find enemies, and it is better, of course, to have obvious enemies and, at the same time, praise the crowd, asserting that it should live better. There are always a lot of applicants in chaos and turmoil. People say adventurers want to fish in muddy water. Of course, with the old morality and with the old elite, it is impossible to catch fish in any way. That is why the old elite if not physically destroyed, is completely vulgarized. She sinks to the bottom, beggars. Every bearer of the morality of solidarity and responsibility, or who simply remembers what it is, for example, the same teachers in schools, is subjected to humiliation and direct and indirect ridicule. Suppose the applicant or his philistine ally wants to rise in the new hierarchy of timelessness. In that case, they must trample morality, honor, responsibility, and the memory of when it was. Humiliate anyone who remembers anything at all..
