CHAPTER IX
ОглавлениеNOT AFRAID OF DEATH, AFRAID OF SHAME
And not of death. The zerots are an elite that never wants or can change. And not only because the zerot are very often all elderly-elders.
The zeroth are not afraid of death, they are afraid of shame.
So why is the traditional elite, the tribal elite, or the feudal elite – the zerots – unwilling to change?
Actually, why should they change if you want them to?
The zerots are not just unwilling to change, they are simply not the clowns of democracy that everyone is used to. Modern people do not think strategically, do not plan, do not anticipate fate for years before, they would live today’s day to the end, but spend time noisy and fun. And there’s no one zerot around. The zerot don’t care about modern dance. They live like characters in the Bible. They don’t just live for a few centuries. It doesn’t happen that way. But so” slowly” think all the feudal lords of the nobility. The zeroth rule and only change places (and only when the time is right). When it grows up, the replacement will mature. These seeds are their children. If not their sons, then the most worthy of the relatives changes the ruler. Everything else is the whim of idiots who are used to living with the main characters for their entire lives and even centuries in one film session.
And the desire to change the rulers is also affected by the crisis.
Again, it is only the selfishness of consumers that gives rise to the desire for the manager to leave. But he doesn’t leave. Not because he is waiting for the next election. If he is zerot, he is preparing a replacement. The traditional elite has never consulted the rabble. Only in very wild times, when anyone could reach the leader, only then did the leader yield. Well, then not everyone would dare to take responsibility for the life of the people. The elite is the elite. Where some simply live, perform the function of life from birth to old age, others are already waiting for death. And remember it. The mob is afraid of death, and zeroth is preparing for it. The zerot cares what they say about him. The zeroth inherit their name. A family name is a great honor more precious than gold. They behave as if they were born a long time ago.
And if the crisis happened, what does it mean for zerot? Let’s get a little out of our problems.
What is a crisis for tradition in general and how does a traditional crisis differ from a market one?
Here is just the mechanism or reasons for replacement will show all the difference between traditional thinking and consumer-uniform.
For traditional peoples, a crisis or, more precisely, force majeure is when circumstances threaten life. And what threatens the fate or the prospect of living as always? This is if some disaster has struck. The people do not get what they need to complete the annual cycle. And what made it possible to complete the annual cycle? This is of course food supplies. Primitive technology and dependence on nature made both the tribe and the stomachs narrow. And first to reproduce. If the farmers could afford to sit still, the nomads ran away from the lack of food. All the weak and sick died.
But was the chief responsible for these losses?
Only a modern fool would have thought of such a thing. No natural cataclysm would have damaged his authority. The first thought is a common punishment. A supernatural force has punished everyone for their sins. But here the leader is not responsible for communicating with an unknown force. The time of such a crisis is the coming on of its priests. According to the modern example of the Prime Minister. It is his servants who have not given something to the spirits or to God. The chief or leader is responsible for defense or attack. If he is a farmer and a leader of farmers, then for defense, if he is a nomad, then for attack. That’s what traditional force majeure is! Only the failure of a military campaign (foreign policy in modern terms means) or even death causes rotation among the chiefs. One, he is a young replacement, changes the old one or the loser or the dead one. If he loses, he’s a coward; if he wins, he’s a hero. And glory to him!
That is, every crisis, in modern economic terms, is the beginning of the movement of the elite in any direction. If the elite is nomadic in the past, it comes, if it is agricultural, it holds the defense. In the modern case of universalism, the crisis is overcome systematically-and defense (from sanctions) and attack (active foreign policy). And even despite the general system and the surrounding universalism, Zerots are not chosen from the crowd, so-called democratic elections, they cause only a lot of noise and confusion, but from their own environment. Even modern oligarchs, for whom it would seem that the gods are money, behave as if they were born under ancient feudalism.
And this behavior is understandable. Because they became oligarchs all of a sudden. They were given money through corruption schemes. And genetically, they are still the same nomads as their ancestors were.
