I obviously appreciate the precision relating to "back to basics".

The real dialectical effort is of little weight to determine a truly effective action in the face of a system which has metastasized the minds beyond all past "hopes": the sciences of manipulation have made good progress since then. Goebbels!
Can we blame them for consolidating the established order? In the documentary on arms in America broadcast last night on Arte, efforts toObama to tighten up the regulations led to a substantial increase in arms sales ... you see the parallel ...

It is precisely with the aim of treating this mystification that it is necessary before any political action (in the broad sense) to understand the mechanisms which agitate human society, without which we will run towards irremediable social conflicts (already largely primed!).

To reproach them no, we humans act like cellular automata of a great game of life: each of us is a cog in a gigantic whole.
In ignorance of the deep mechanisms of nature, it therefore seems very difficult to recover from any free will.
Ideologies are memes that come to possess "the human structures" that we are, the resulting geometries are classically called social phenomena.
Fascism, anarchism, ultraliberalism and the like are just different configurations of the physical process put forward by our behaviors.

Certainly, without leaving mystification, struggles can only adopt an immanent formulation, ie. internal to the system, adapting it without fighting it (therefore extending it).

There is however a minimum of free will, since without it, no possible awareness of our determinisms! 8)
