Gotta love a me some community, right?
And you can too! Join a cult, join a commune – hell, attach yourself to ANY collectivist group that’ll have ya. But, failing that, just be a good corporate citizen and fall right into line. Yer a communitarian thar now, Bubba. It’s all good!
So just go along with your programming. Don’t say a word. Be agreeable… and have more friends! Better the chance you’ll get that next promotion [if only you will conform!]. You sabe?
So be a good team player, boys and girls. Yea, this is how… we ALL kin win! Remember: See no evil, hear no evil – do y’all see it now? How this is all s’posed ta work?
Okay, I’m done. I think y’all are startin’ ta get it now… that’s the spirit! 😉

The corporation is a collectivist entity. Which is to say that it subsumes individuals… to its purpose.

 

Some have compared/equated communitarianism to/with neo-feudalism… but also to neocolonialism and neoplatonism*. Remember always that communitarianism is said to be the Final Solution – so perfect that it need not give rise to any further conflict or debate. This is because the language – yes, it too is a technology – can be wielded in such a way in a totalitarian police state that it can easily be manipulated to implement/enforce an always malleable and, thus, changeable policy. In an efficient and orderly fashion, the technoslaves will see to it themselves.

Communitarianism [Synthesis/Solution]

In the communitarian’s mind the buy-in has already been engineered, so now the slaves can implement the vision. The corporatist model of governance utilizes a corporate framework to impose its caste system* on everyone who chooses to engage with it in contract – a type of voluntary servitude, if you will.

It’s no wonder why the trend towards privatization of government – the corporate business model is well entrenched as a fact of life in the public mind. Which is to say it’s readily accepted; and, therefore, it’s the ideal vehicle for those hellbent on monopoly… and your acquiescence to their communitarian system of global governance [management]… so that today… you and <ahem> the Community can better place a stranglehold, a death grip, on this world.

The Politics of Obedience: The Discourse of Voluntary Servitude

“As long as it is admitted that the law may be diverted from its true purpose – that it may violate property instead of protecting it – then everyone will want to participate in making the law, either to protect himself against plunder or to use it for plunder.”

“When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.”

-From The Law (1850), by Frédéric Bastiat
