Charlottesville- where do they all come from where do they all belong
Couple of weeks ago hundreds of white supremacist gathered in Charlottesville and chanted white lives matter. Which sparked a clash between anti-fascist groups and white supremacist groups. Resulted three dead and dozens injured. Why we see a growing culture of hatred in our society. Where societies previously bounded by mutual trust and solidarity. Instead we are seeing increasingly large amount of hatred based group and hate culture. This whole hate culture is typified by a recent dating app call hater where you can date someone you mutually hate. Its becoming increasingly popular to see the groups which are formed not by a common motive make a better society but to hate another set of human beings.
we are entering to an era we are losing institutions which are for solidarity mutual trust. Replaced by a hate groups. This is deeply rooted in the society where TV series and movies which promote and elevate cynicism, hate And mock love and compassion. There are even certain set of vocabulary used such as snowflake etc. Roots of hatred comes from irrationality. Which derive from inability to understand the roots of an issue. Let's take white supremacist movement narrative. If you roughly narrow down is that white people are becoming marginalize in the society therefore white people need to fight back as a race and claim the superiority. If you read between the lines it's not very difficult to understand their angle. Which makes it even clearer if you look it up objectively in to the why in 2017 we hear racism in the age information. In order to achieve objectivity we need to go in to statistics. Majority of people who involved in these movements comes from lower middle class. Take one of these racist vlogger who named himself millennial woes.A 34 years old british male.Who admit that he lives with his farther on social welfare.his youtube channel popular among the far right groups.Same applies to milo Yiannopoulos a lost entrepreneur who failed his hustling projects and later a found a market in alt right and made a business model out of it. Usually these groups involved in ultra right activities often potrayed in their most subjectively apparent commonalities. Such as white,Nazi,facist anti gay etc.However all these hate populist groups have something more convincingly common.Which is their socio economic class.Which is the lower middle class Which was the most economically supressed class in the society.Michgen united states provides a much more lucid picture of the history of this particular class.Where once had the largest industries in united states .Accommodated a massive industrial work force.And currently the decay of Detroit is a Wikipedia fact .How a person who is living in this type of a decline social conditioning explain himself or herself what was happening around.However the mainstream ideologies were build in a such a way they would no longer rationalize this new situation in a socio economic perspective. It should be obvious that this is a result of a social conditioning. This particular class is being the most economically marginalized class in the western society. Most of the social benefits that they were entitled was cut down by austerity. They were driven and displaced by their neighbourhoods to feed property bubble real estate development. Never entitled or never could afford proper education. There is serious economic suppression was put in to these people for them to find answers to the harsh situation they are in. However that economic context will never provide a proper explanation to the condition which they are in. So they will be victims of highly subjective observations like Muslims invade West. Immigrants take jobs and so on. Today understanding world via economical rationality is being taken away from the common masses. Often economical understanding was explained via extreamly non economical aspects. When real problems like declining of social care, decline of social conditions.which was a result of current neo liberal policies. Were answered by synthetic answers like budget deficit, economy is growing, there are no money trees (analogy by Theresa may), piggy bank is empty(analogy by Barrack Obama). People will not be comforted by it. Then they will be vulnerable to believe those fast food subjective arguments than synthetic answers made by the neo liberal fantasies. Because they seems more authentic.As they are seems more
authenticated by emotionality over rationality.Once Slovenian philosopher slavoj zizek wrote no ethnic cleansing without poetry. What can we do?. If you want to defeat anything. You take that where it's weakest. Fighting on the ground will never prevent and that will even justify what these far right groups are doing. Encounter them in the street is not the best battle ground. Real battle ground is education. Find the root causes of these far right ideologies. You encounter ignorance with knowledge not with irrational aggregation. Irrational aggregation will only leads to another chain of aggression.
