  1. No future? Instability and wreckage

    "At a time when the future feels increasingly uncertain, rightwing populist politics offers something simple and seductive: certainty, belonging and the promise of a return to an imagined past."

    "AfD and One Nation may not look or even sound the same, but they are singing from the same song sheet."

    "Climate disruption is intensifying amid economic insecurity, war and displacement...Legitimate fears about the future can too easily be used to turn people against each other." >>

  2. The disintegration of liberalism and 'postliberal disillusionment'

    * "That sound you hear is not the world ending – it’s liberalism being monstered liberalism. Liberalism defines almost our entire social and political order in the west."

    "Broad, deep, relentless. And what matters most is the compounding effect: a near-constant sense of crisis in almost every sphere of life."

    “... It is the vehicle for this fury that is directed towards the major parties because of this very long sense of neglect and social economic disempowerment that has become so profound."

    "It turns out most of us no longer believe in progress...When people stop believing in progress, it quickly becomes a crisis for societies like ours. Our political order was built on the promise of expanding wealth and greater control over our lives. It said we could dream big, then pursue those dreams, and that if we didn’t achieve them, maybe our children would."

    "As disillusionment sets in, there is no shortage of culprits. One possibility is to tell a story about capitalism, which generates gaping inequalities and destroys the planet." >>

    * The medicalisation of social problems is the sociological process by which everyday human experiences, behaviors, and societal challenges come to be defined, labeled, and treated as medical conditions or disorders

    * "Post-traumatic embitterment disorder
    is a pathological response to a single adverse life event perceived by the affected individual as a serious insult, humiliation, or injustice."

  3. "La question du #déclassement professionnel est une question centrale, un élément moteur dans le vote RN. C'est par exemple le différentiel entre le niveau de diplôme atteint et la réalité de l'emploi occupé. Dans l'électorat de Marine Le Pen, en 2022 notamment, plus des deux tiers étaient des gens qui avaient des masters, mais occupaient des emplois beaucoup plus modestes. Derrière la question du déclassement, il y a cette idée d'une forme de mensonge social sur la méritocratie à la républicaine et sur la hiérarchie sociale. Une forme de délégitimation que l'on observe dans le vote des fonctionnaires, qui votent de plus en plus à droite. Il y a une dislocation des corporatismes, des professionnalités, au profit d'une forme de précarisation managériale qui rend la pratique des métiers très difficile, qui génère des violences avec les usagers et qui rend finalement les salariés victimes d'un système qui ne contrôle absolument plus rien. Et c'est cette idée de perte de maîtrise, aussi bien au niveau individuel que collectif, qui alimente le vote RN."
