Fan Wennan 2021

“Ten thousand years is too long, fight for now!” This is the title of Fan Wennan’s admirable work of art above. With this opening, I intend to introduce the discussion of the politicization of the instrument we wield today, technology. That is, as well, the Singularity Moment and the process of its path, who shall guide it, in terms of ideology?

Under the Debordian Spectacle today, the mode of culture can be summarized as a consumerized depressive perpetuation of endless temporary desires in constant revitalization. Changing in mere perception but ultimately out of view is a tool to justify the perpetuation of consumerist capital. To justify the supremacy of the Post-Ford mode of production’s administration of consumer production. The ideological puppeteer is a Lyotardian Libidinal Neoliberal Economic class of fiat “capitalists”.

Hesitate to name them capitalists, for, capital is no longer an individual possession but instead now a series of declarations of ownership, ultimately fiat, both in the production process, systemic planning of its inevitable consumption, and its allocation. Alienation now occurs en masse due in major part to the large-scale commodification of the consumer-producer. As she fascinates herself with The Spectacle, she realizes also her disassociation with the value of commodities for she herself is one. She is a part of the Spectacle as much as she engages in the Spectacle. The ideology is self-perpetuated. Post-Literate wrote that the Spectacle is:

“[..] the transcendence of capital to a state of pure appearance. In the same way pop sci-fi writers used to imagine a machine which could evolve humanity into a being of pure light (implying this was the highest possible stage of evolution), capital has now evolved itself and the world it governs into a planet of only appearance.”

-Elucidation on the Spectacle and Freedom in Capitalism

There then must be a realignment in the attitude of commodity production and the interpretation of commodities. The ideological shift is moving beyond liberalism, damning liberalism as a Political System and a system of morality, deeming it insufficient. The hindrances of Liberalism are this: the consensual disunity of the productive masses, and its rampant cosmopolitanism which impedes the preservation of cultural traditions, inevitably leading to crises of meaning in societies. Capital, as an instrument, is in the possession of the liberal. Because liberalism is devoid of the principle of self-discipline, liberalism replaces this crucial ordinance on humanity by supplementing temporary wants of quick satisfaction with minimal effort. Thus is the Spectacle.

Post-Humanly Declared Futurist Xu Zhimo

Make Romantic, Revolutionary Innovation.

The pursuit of paradise is sown by those willing to endeavor. The ideology which persists in indoctrinating the youth with the future is an ideology firmly rooted in eternalness. Bolshevism seized production to unleash it at its capacity. Khruschevism standardized it, restricting its growth in favor of a bureaucratic class that had despised Stalin’s anti-bureaucratic doctrine.

Revolutions are affirmations of a universal struggle. Civilization is reformed to fit the prevailing ideology adopted by the masses by coercion of the ruling class. Forever there is a ruling mindset whether self-actualized, self-actualizing or a universally accepted theory of reality. The shackles of the 20th Century either exist now as a decadent brute force of political institutions or a ghost of a production process such as the Fordian occupations which had been replaced by Post-Fordian administrative occupations reinterpreting value-production if not tearing it down.

We may look at a solution, Leninist Debordian Situationism. The commodification of the individual’s desires for expression and fulfillment is a revolutionary resistance bound to occur if left to fruition. She must realize herself as a human being, adopting Humanist tendencies to emphasize Man as the supremacist in control. Labor is realized as her want. She wants to be given meaning, the individual. So, she inevitably calls for either the setback of progress or the controlled acceleration of progress to benefit her class position as a laborer. Technology too becomes an expression of her individuality, free from commodification. Commodities then are shaped in her image, not her image shaped by commodities. Meaning is reformed and reinforced, and so are civilizational structures.

The road to paradise is a series of contradictions. Then, as a struggle for the future, political acquisition of power is brought to the forefront of the vanguard of Futurists, Populists, Conservative Revolutionaries, Marxist Leninists, and the wide varied Mexicanist. The political acquisition of power is not the end goal. The grip the Lyotardian Libidinal Neoliberal Economic Class holds on culture is obliterated, liberating culture from the insufficient ultimately anti-technological system of ideology.

Then there ushers in reborn creativity by means of an oppressed culture. The seizure of telecommunications enables the Techno-Maoist initiative of rejuvenating the Productive Forces within the masses to build massive infrastructure projects benefiting the present and future. The unity of the present-future is a constant political policy. Labor deemed productive is labor that reinforces the attitude of vigorous work engaged in the actions of Neo-Futurism. Cultural traditions that reinvigorate this ideal are preserved.

Unleashing the forces of production is beautiful. It is romanticized by poetry, art, politics, leisure, and labor. There is no political spectrum.

Political Actualization

The Great Accelerator: Gorbachev

Everything under heaven is in chaos, all is beautiful. The struggle of the revolutionaries is not free from stained white gloves. This is a reality the revolutionary Robespierre-inspired French, Washington-led Americans, Zapatista and Pancho-guided peasantry, and the Russians Vangaurdists faced. Seizure of the techno-industry and the forceful shacklement of dictatorial owners of capital to the political state as their master is inherently a violent process.

The meaning of the state is realigned to its core foundational principle of being for, of, and by the people. Who wrote this better on the use-value of the principle and the reality of its conceptualized essence than Haz Al-Din:

We the people, and the universal statehood implicit in it, is a purported intention — a conceit. It does not claim to actually know or represent every individual person, it is the purport of a state which seeks to act as a universal people — and thus, an inherently abstracted form of the people, the people in the institutional purport of their sovereignty, i.e. if a state will act as the people it can only do so as a pure form which knows no distinction in content (i.e. between persons).

In the tradition of the Stalinists and Maoists, a popular figure arises as the head of the people's struggle. Who, in large part by their super-power-like occupations, are the heads of the self-criticism movement of the newly established political institutions. Decrying any utilization of old manners of conduct that are deemed harmful to the unleashing of the production process or interprets labor similarly to the former regime.

Cultural Revolutions are conducted regularly by the masses. Given validity by the Republican Federalist Constitutionalist Futurist Vanguard overview of political systems. Industry, therefore, must be nationalized. To break free from the Spectacle, we must recognize then the Spectacle as a global phenomenon and the class struggle as a national struggle firstly.

The context of tradition becomes interpretations of today. A reaction, firstly, like a farce, then, tragedy, as a post-human commodity passed down through time. The tragedy too is romantic. Suppose, a nuclear family in the future. A flying automobile or reinterpreted importance of public transport, teleportation systems for the father to go to work, the mother to administer automobile transit, and the schoolboy off to temples of education. Let tradition too appropriate to the present-future.

Muslim temples are built to reach into the heavens. Communized apartments and techno-homes hold leaders of many congregations with differing religions. The state not only declares peace amongst the Abrahamic religions but forces it as change always is. Rabbis travel by robot. Common Law is enforced by sophisticated methods of cultural expression utilizing holographic announcements by leaders of the techno-revolution in all homes, and the usage of history to the benefit of the political vanguard.

Techno-economic rapid acceleration benefits social ends.

So long as political enmity is expressed through the form of class-conscious elements of society platformed by the state the backwardness of liberalism is strangled at every approach by a Realism of the Future. Political irrelevance is the dogma of political consistency. Therefore, in the aspirations of acquiring an authentic Republic fixated on the future and inevitability of an alternative beyond comprehension (at the present moment) outlook and practice of reality, the Mexicanist political unity is a Political Front of Symbolic anti-elitism. Similarly to the trend of MAGACommunism.

Digital Leninism. Techno-Maoism. Neo-Stalinism. Mexicanist Republicanism.

In order to achieve a Beyond-Capitalist reality, with the Maoist strategy of political class unity, capital must be fully cybernetic and self-perpetuating, destroying totally the validity of fiat declarations of individual ownership or bourgeois class control. This is accomplished in a quick-paced progression of automation, rendering Post-Ford occupations useless, fully gone, making way for a realignment of value-production and Neo-Industrial Orientation (as a relationship between Man and Nature) and Neo-Moralism and the self-evident truth that is realism. Distribution, Production, and Civilizational Foundations are reformed.
