The unification of Kapitalismo-sozjietie and the division of Kapitalismo-sozjietie happens simultaneously through the presentation of the spectacle of mediation. The consciousness of {its} - Kapitalismo-sozjietie or the spectacle? - of its vision, or point of focality, guides Kapitalismo-sozjietie. A consciousness of falsity and delusion enters the domain of reality separating us universally.
The concrete activities of people in the material-technical production process of Kapital – material, technical, digital - presupposes concrete production relations among people, and vice versa. “{T}he unintended consequences {that derive} from the dimension of social transformation ... produces ... {a} multi-linear character of {transformation} of the sovereignty {of the people}.”1
Citizen Anonymous writes to us from 1970, a time when Leftists celebrated the victory of Sirimavo Bandaranaike in Colombo, Ceylon, but in the rampage speaks of the incident of a policeman losing his life. The return to power of the woman premier signified violent upheavals, so entrenched are the neoliberals, that they cannot concede ground without placing private mercenaries – no union to protect them or the ephemeral canvas of temporary state power either – the neoliberals cannot concede ground without placing private mercenaries upon it.
Bandaranaike's programme of 'Free Rice for All' gave her and her Socialist-Communist United Front a 73% majority in a democratically elected parliamentary system. The previous leader, Dudley Senanayake, could only just scrape 1% in the newly formed body. Russia considered it a victory for 'progressive regimes'.
The interests of peace and democracy require transformation socially, a radical new policy towards socialist sovereignty to strengthen societal progression. Citizen Anonymous tell us that “{t}he {Soviet} Communist party newspaper Pravda ... commented that 'the returns of the elections {were} evidence that the peoples of Asian countries reject the imperialist policy of setting Asians against Asains,”2 the legacy of which can be seen today in the relationship between North and South Korea.
