#conformism — Public Fediverse posts

"Because the discontent of the people is not strong enough to get to the bottom of things, to the point of wanting to regain the powers they had lost, each election brings back the same hope: that of a government that would finally serve those who elected it."

Bernard Charbonneau, in "L'État" (1949)

‘The people do not exercise power. Instead they cast a vote in the ballot box, a kind of magical operation by which they ensure a freedom that is no longer present in their daily actions. Political life comes forward as resignation.’

Bernard Charbonneau in L'État (1949)

"The world we live in is false in the sense that institutions deceive about the truth of their role and their objective functions. Therefore, telling the truth about these institutions and calling them into account are one and the same thing."

"Non-intervention and non-commitment constitute objectively ways of not changing the world and hence of committing to its conservation."

—Geoffroy de Lagasnerie in "We have to take responsibility for the chaos in which we live", le Nouveau Magazine littéraire, 5 October 2018 @philosophy
