[[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]] Societies of Control [[File:Sec.png]]
Different systems of domination have existed since the birth of civilization. With the rise of industrial capitalism came the societies of discipline. It revolved around physical confinement (in the factory, school, etc.) as a means of domination and conditioning. The rise of neoliberalism led to a new system of domination, which Deleuze referred to as societies of control. One may ask something like “what exactly is a society of control?” Deleuze theorized that with the advancement of technology (which corresponded with the rise of neoliberalism), a new system of domination emerged. In some ways the societies of control stand in stark contrast to the societies of discipline. While the societies of discipline revolved around confinement, the societies of control revolve around freedom of movement. This doesn’t mean the individual is more free in a society of control. Due to how decentralized and complex the control society is, it is more difficult to revolt against, with Deleuze comparing disciplinary societies and control societies to the burrows molehill and the coils of a snake respectively. People are less likely to attempt revolt too. Deleuze states that young people “strangely boast of being ‘motivated’; they re-request apprenticeships and permanent training.” This does not mean liberation is now impossible. We are still able to discover who and what we are serving, though it will be difficult.

[[File:Arist.png]] Master-Slave Morality [[File:JewTheo.png]] [[File:Christy.png]]
In Genealogy of Morals, Nietzsche discusses the origin of morality. He disagrees with previous studies into the origin of morality, who assumed that what was defined as good was always what was unegoistic. First, he defines the good and bad morality of aristocrats (master morality). For the aristocratic, good was defined as what was noble, powerful, and life-affirming. Bad was defined in contrast to this, as what was lowly and weak. This meant those of the highest rank within society were good, while those of the lowest rank were bad. He points to the fact that everywhere with nobility had a similar moral system. This eventually changed though. Those of low status began to feel ressentiment towards the nobility. This led to the creation of a moral system of good and evil (slave morality). Unlike the nobles they defined evil first, with evil being that which is noble, strong, and egoistic. Good is then defined as that which is unegoistic, sympathetic, and weak. Despite proclaiming to preach love, slave morality can not exist without something to hate. In contrast, master morality only needs something outside itself to affirm itself. The noble also doesn’t need an object outside of itself to find fulfillment, unlike men of ressentiment. In opposition to the noble’s activity, the oppressed submit themselves to passivity, which allows them too see weakness as voluntary and virtuous. They then expect a reward for their passivity and suffering, an example being the Kingdom of God. Jews and Christians will claim their beliefs are built off a love for others. This is shown not to be the case, with multiple Christian texts describing the joy Christians would feel watching the torment of those sinners who oppressed them. These two systems of morality have been in conflict since the days of Rome. It appears that in the end slave morality won out with the spread of Christianity and the victory of the French Revolution and democracy. Despite this, master morality was able to rise again after the French Revolution with Napoleon, who Nietzsche describes as the “synthesis of inhuman and superhuman.”

Comments
- Comment stuff I guess. I’ll probably delete it sometime after replying.

CynicalLibra - A big improvement from post-anarchism if I do say so myself, even if I'm not that big of a fan of libertarian socialism. Honestly reminds myself of my old Libertarian Marxist period.
