The return of the old left: the Democratic Party reconciles itself to take everything by taking advantage of the emergency
What is a lockdown for . For months we have been repeating that the paranoid closure of the country does not respond to health reasons but only political and finally even the skeptics, the zealous, the presumptuous have the confirmation under their eyes: the Democratic Party, an increasingly virtual party, is reconciled, back to 30 years ago with the return of the mandarins, the D'Alema, the Bersani; Italian Left dissolved, nothing more than a branch, the same goes for Liberi e Uguali , while grillismo has fulfilled its mission by transferring itself to the left-wing parent company. After many acronyms and many make-ups , the PCI is back, no longer pro-Soviet but organic to the Chinese dictatorship: the fatal attraction of the old nomenklatura is no mystery, but let's also put Prodi, the left-wing Christian Democrat, for the Silk Road. Thus, close to the election of the new head of state, who can be a woman, a man, transgender, tall, short, thin, overweight, but always liked by the Democratic Party, to the left as per unwritten rule.
How is a regime built? Starting from an emergency which then becomes endemic, and which allows the double result of instilling an increasingly widespread and irrational terror in the population, and, consequently, of depriving it of its fundamental freedoms, elementary rights and, in terms of the Constitution, insurmountable. All shut up! All stop! Nobody move a muscle in the face, as Gian Burrasca's cerberus professor ordered. While the country is silent and still, without understanding why, the regime is established, it is reinforced, it is strengthened and in the end nobody asks the reason for anything: it is like this because it is just like that, and if things do not change the fault is of the no-vax . Do you say that they infect the hyperimmunized the most? That's not what they explain to us, the official version is different and we should take it for granted. Obey, don't think. Conte began, the upstart of politics, a premier made in the laboratory, continued Draghi, one who until a year ago had never practiced Italian politics, at least directly, and now hypothesize a monarchical role, a compendium of all offices and all powers, even if no one has ever even elected him.
Fortunately, Italian democracy still survives for heterogenesis of ends. Draghi already felt at Colle but he sinned with ybris and the parties, weak as much as they wanted, immediately reacted: now he is a lame duck, he pretends to agree to stay at Palazzo Chigi, but it is the story of the fox with the grapes . The fox ended up in furs and now he sets his conditions: I remain, but only with "full powers". Of course, of course, the parties answer him, who know very well how to cook their frogs and their dragons.
The return of the mandarins is not good news: they have a "progressive", Leninist conception of democracy, and they have a fascination not only for the ideological China of life president Xi Jinping and for state capitalism that disregards human rights. Already today the press, the judiciary, the cultural industry and the consensus industry are largely controlled by the left, by the Democratic Party: the mandarins will not be enough, they will immediately try to broaden the sphere of control and for this reason an eternal lockdown , a perennial emergency is the 'ideal. Those who are still under the illusion that after March the situation will be resolved is wrong: there is nothing more to solve, we are already seeing it today, the "cold pandemic" is not scary, it is a great mystification as Zangrillo says, but it is better to keep it in mind feet, hysterise it: the money of Europe, Italian money in reality, which comes back but at a very high price, still not seen and in any case it is already fully booked by the parties; the political framework is as always muddy and stagnant, the left is strong in the junctions of power but very weak in terms of consensus, with specific weight and must be strengthened according to a Chinese recipe.
With the return of the mandarins there is an air of reckoning and not only within the politburo, not only within the friendly camp, where the one who seems to risk the most is Renzi, who in turn leads a small branch; it is a question of handing over the country directly to the new masters, of making it, in a definitive way, a Chinese colony, if possible with the backing of a European Union where, moreover, the Democratic Party is the official representative in Italy. The process is well underway, civil liberties are effectively suppressed, it is no longer possible to object, the official narrative is pervasive, the overwhelming conformism, the citizens are divided, bewildered, the recovery is boasted, based on the prudential estimates of Brussels and of service economic observers, energy is starting to run low while its prices explode, the bureaucracy with the China virus has increased its incidence to totalitarian levels, the repressive measures are flooding and no one seems able to even challenge them, do not say to oppose them . The game of variants, of blackmail, of certificates that are impossible to sustain, has become automatic. Great is the confusion under the Italian sky, the solution is excellent.
For who? For those who have every interest in consecrating negative and repressive democracy, even more paternalistic; for the Orthodox left of the D'Alema, the Bersani who were waiting for their chance and, after two years of paralysis, have had it and are preparing to settle the old accounts, but not only. On the other hand, the center-right is fragmented and, although superior in numbers, still unable to create a valid alternative both from a political and, a fortiori, cultural point of view (always remember the essay by Daniele Capezzone, "For a new right " , which is having so much success proving that there is a very large part of citizens that the new right is waiting for it, without finding it). The new right is not visible, the new left yes: it is the decrepit one, walled up by the returning mandarins, and, this time, with every intention of not taking prisoners. That is to make us all prisoners, according to that new Gramscian hegemony which in the mouth of Speranza, the protégé of the mandarins, seemed like a drunken raving and was instead a precise design, a lucid prophecy.
