“Toynbee believed that societies always die from suicide or murder rather than from natural causes, and nearly always from suicide” [1]
The “nation” is the ethnicity, the culture, the collective psychology of the people, the soul of the land shaping the populace. This is a natural phenomenon, based in feelings, from which true, not artificial, revolutions are born. It is the underlying self-identity of the people. Naturally androgynous, this instinctive understanding becomes weighted to a feminine intelligence, refusing to be dominated, when threatened.
The “state” is the mechanism that should have served to keep the nation stable, flourishing, and sustained in such a way as to provide a complete nutrition, temporal and spiritual. It is an artificial entity. The state, more often than not, morphs into a disciplinarian and reactionary male mentality, when threatened.
From the first, natural event, the second, artificial event must draw its legitimacy, in order for the state to sustain. This second or the state, to survive, must accurately reflect the ‘feelings’ of the first. The mistake of the state is to lose sight of keeping the woman’s happiness (the people) paramount as the only means to stability, and health in the relationship.
In the paradox that is liberal democracy and the West, the cycling and recycling of domestic violence, the rise and fall of the state, is result of a misapprehension of reality by Plato, and in the case of France, it is the mistake of Plato’s progeny: Descartes.
What Plato had done, is to deny ‘feeling’ derived from instinct as a form or source of healthy intelligence, when assigning a paramount value to male understanding and the evolution of the state. This subverts any natural and healthy self-identity or what could be described as ‘I am French!’ in a sense of positive populism, into a malignant populism that is quite angry with her lover, wishing to throw him out of the apartment constituting the state. However those politicians educated by the Catholic church might wish to deny this is a ‘state’ of chauvinism in relation to the French people, infecting the state institution, in fact, according to French revolutionary principles, ‘Liberty’ is a church persecuted woman demanding bread on the household’s table:
Plato’s (and Descartes) unnatural chauvinism is simple result of denial mechanism, burying feeling and related instinct with the spade of logic and, when your political foundation is Jesuit educated over several generations, Lycée Louis-le-Grand example given, it is small wonder the state should go on to produce a Hungarian elf with an erection, Sarkozy, who’d pandered to the French deputies with the aroma of L’Oréal, followed on with a flaccid body & mind that looked as though it’d not stepped out of his prostitute’s apartment in Quartier Pigalle for decades, that is Hollande, and now we have the moral midget Macron who’d seduced his elderly lover as though, in his fantasies, he were the spawn of incest that is Mordred coveting the throne via seduction of Guinevere. But the actual portrait is rather one of Sarte’s ‘undead’ consort grimacing her pleasure at the murder of Lady Liberty. It’s small wonder Paris burns.

The ‘undead’ de Beauvoir
Meanwhile, if we can thank the counter-revolutionary Napoleon for the unifying of the German state, we can also thank Bismark for schooling the most part of a Catholic Germany into a collective, singular, Prussian mentality that dare not deviate from the artificial; or a Plato inspired supremacist state where a pretense of civility thinly conceals an undying, authentic nazi nature in the ruling structures. If the contemporary German ruler historically need little fear their own thoroughly cowed populace, where free thinking is crushed in the children as easily as one might swat flies, the German state does fear (with a vengeance) the French style or feminine liberté, égalité, fraternité in its origins or revolutionary state. It follows, a ‘vichyphile’ or ‘Mini-Merkel’ is replacing a tired, barren, reactionary product of a failed Marxist state, that is one Dame Angela, even as a familiar, malignant form of nationalism erupts in Merkel’s own eastern homeland.
In short, an intensive education in physics, that is Merkel’s PhD, shapes the brain away from intelligent instinct, a legacy of Plato, and this phenomenon of an education in ‘hard science’ should never be underestimated in a context of possibility for rendering a person or body politic to become utterly, socially stupid. Without good instinct, there is absolute inflexibility when it comes to what cannot be grasped, how the land’s culture shapes the nation’s soul, especially inability to grasp circumstance where this soul is threatened. Populism and related nationalism manifest in two forms, the healthy and unhealthy, the benign and the malignant, the tranquil and the rage.
It follows, Merkel lacking real insight, and having altogether failed recognizing cause underlying her own people increasingly rejecting her, even as Germany implodes, anoints a caricature, a small freak intellect that is mirror image of its mentor and a dead instinct’s policies:
‘Mini-Mutti’ & ‘Mutti’
What’s to come? Even as Paris burns and Berlin has become a singular, large crime scene where AlexanderPlatz in the city’s center is now a no-go zone for ordinary citizens, this Mini-Merkel will push forward Mutti’s failing vision of globalism, with associated, lesser-privileged EU satellite states further forced into privitization, ripping off the people to benefit those corporate shareholders comprising 1%, multiculturalism and associated social friction will be an unrelenting drive, NATO aggression and associated hostility towards Russia must increase, and the new Mini-Merkel certainly will perform political fellatio on fellow minions of the Western oligarchs and the likes of Macron who admires the nazi puppet & Vichy hero Marshal Petain; if only to prop up the European ruling class of the rich becoming richer. Deutschland Über alles requires what amounts to collaborators governing in France and the spots on that nazi phenomenon have nothing to do with Marine LePen. The nazi is Macron.
Populism’s ‘yellow’ adorns believers in LePen on the right, Mélenchon on the left, and all of the disaffected between the two of them in a nation with soul burning in torment. It is the nation at the stake, where Macron holds the torch of a divorced (from the people) state that will see France burned alive on behalf of a blind arrogance; while Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer’s Prussian mentality no doubt habitually masturbates to her fantasies of a French Jesuit educated consort of the undead that constitutes the German state’s romance with a necrophiliac; as Europe crumbles from within. The social psychology of the damned, as it were…
