In a first analysis, entitled The Controlled Opposition or the Yellow Union, dated January 21, 2024 in Antipresse, I described the methods for containing political opposition among the people and directing it towards paths that are less dangerous in the eyes of those in power. This popular opposition, thus controlled, must be guided by leaders who will render it, without its knowledge, totally harmless.

Was the totalitarian COVID-19 outbreak of 2020 merely the appetizer, as I predicted? The quiet adoption in the United States of new legislation on health-related coercive procedures seems to confirm my suspicions. Buckle up!

Unlike the Colombian people among whom she lives, Ariane Bilheran notes that the French constantly demand their dose of illusions. Recent outbursts of collective hatred and hypocrisy vividly illustrate this addiction.

The study of an ancient language as an antidote to modern-day loss of reason and totalitarianism? It may seem frivolous, but... From the origin of words to the structure of thought, Latin offers us a veritable arsenal of defense against mental decay.

Thus, as incredible as it may seem, the entire "declaration of sexual rights", which is now being rolled out by the WHO, in the name of "sexual health" (a linguistic misuse on which there would also be much to say), is based on a sophism which has distorted the logic of reasoning in order to better manipulate public opinion.

By applying a psychopathological key to the phenomenon of totalitarianism, Ariane Bilheran has undertaken pioneering work and considerably deepened our knowledge of this phenomenon, which until now had been confined to sociopolitical analysis. As her original vision gradually established itself as an essential approach, it seemed useful to her to return to the origins and inspirations of her idea.

Reading note on Psychopathologie du totalitarisme, Psychopathology of totalitarianism in the journal Éléments by Rémi Soulié. If Plato and Aristotle, according to Pascal, "wrote about politics, it was as if to regulate a madhouse". Pascal did not believe he was right, for want of having known totalitarianism, whose canonical distinction with so-called liberal and representative democracy seems increasingly difficult to maintain for Ariane Bilheran...

In an age of ubiquitous advertising, Klemperer's reflection remains acutely relevant. Better than anyone else, he understood the power of enchantment and self-alienation conveyed by the words of language.

Gabriel García Márquez was not only the brilliant novelist of One Hundred Years of Solitude and other great works. He wrote many stories, some of which have been published. Among these stories, one has, to my knowledge, never been included in a book. It is entitled Algo muy grave va a suceder en este pueblo: "Something very serious is going to happen in the village."

Let's continue our analysis of the political marketing deployed on citizens. Omnipresent today, across various crucial issues, social engineering distributes ritualistic codes that signify membership in a particular game, which people choose to be the one designated by those in power. In doing so, they gamble on having a greater chance of "winning".

Currently living in Colombia, she was one of the first to point out, in March 2020, at the beginning of the lockdown linked to the emergence of the famous Covid, that from the point of view of political philosophy, we were facing a totalitarian drift and, from the psychopathological point of view, a paranoiac delusion.

International Symposium of Mental Health organized in Portugal by Aliança Saúde Portugal, about the current pandemic of fear propagated in the humanity.

A specialist in the work of Friedrich Nietzsche, Ariane Bilheran helps us understand the idea of "comfort health" through an observation she makes about the crisis we are experiencing today: "so many people agree to give up their freedom under the cover of a lie, without having a knife to their throat, far from it. Quite simply because many of them aspire to the preservation of their comfort and their privileges, and because they have been chained to them little by little.

All totalitarian islets create their own "newspeak", for example within companies that operate by terrorizing, harassing and persecuting their employees. All totalitarianism lives off the conquest of "ideological pretension" (Hannah Arendt) and the "rectification of thought" (Mao). To overcome these ideological levels, which are increasingly moving away from the search for truth and knowledge, and to persecute opponents, the instrumentalization of language is necessary.

This summer of 2021, I had the opportunity to visit France, a country I hadn't visited for several years. It was an opportunity for me to observe a serious deterioration in human relations and values, undoubtedly fertile ground for the ongoing paranoiac decompensation.

In the delusional hypochondria of paranoia, illness is everywhere, experienced as dangerous, mortal, the enemy of the living. The sick are opposed to the healthy, as the impure to the pure: the order is given to eliminate (and before that, to "evict" to use the words of Jean-Michel Blanquer, Minister of National Education in France, concerning unvaccinated children) the part of the social body designated as impure.

No great crime, no human tragedy has remained without witnesses. It is as if destiny, or the collective unconscious, assigns this role to certain privileged individuals, and grants them providential protection to accomplish their mission. This is true as much for the "great History" as for the intimate dramas of families and communities.

"We have pushed logic so far in the liberation of human beings from the shackles of industrial exploitation that we have sent about ten million people to forced labor in the Arctic regions and the eastern forests, in conditions analogous to those of the galley slaves of antiquity. We have pushed logic so far that to settle a difference of opinion, we know only one argument: death."

The totalitarian regime aims at "total domination" (H. Arendt), that is to say, it interferes in the totality of social, private, and intimate spheres, even in the psyche of individuals.
