¿Why Does the Bourgeoisie Rule Society? By Humberto Gómez Sequeira-HuGóS | Sunday, 10 September 2017
The bourgeoisie doesn't rule society because it’s endowed with superior genes, divine right, or compassion. It rules because it controls the State that is founded on the land it stole, the law with which it converted its loot into private property, and the mind of the people that obey the law imposed by the State. The bourgeoisie converted the land into a commodity, thus corrupting society’s relation with it, and the reason for the interaction of its members. With corruption— converted into the system of “free enterprise”—the bourgeoisie replaced society’s natural freedom, and enslaved it to its law and the destructive competition for survival. Society’s acceptance of the bourgeoisie, its domination system, and its attributes—imbecility, avarice, brutality, and social indifference—as the values that stimulate its aspirations is the base of the bourgeois rule.
