Capitalism exploits. Communism suppresses. Neo-communism reintroduces capitalism—and exploitation returns. This essay argues that no political system has yet escaped the human recognition loop: the deep psychological need for validation, status, and applause. Until we recondition the human substrate and build post-performative structures, every ideology will decay into hierarchy and manipulation. A viable future begins not with a new system—but with new humans.
The Gaza conflict is no longer merely a territorial or ideological struggle—it has become a self-perpetuating mechanism for power. Both Netanyahu’s government and Hamas exploit the ongoing war to sustain their own systems: one clings to control through fear and national emergency; the other gains legitimacy through resistance and martyrdom. This tragic loop ensures that peace is not only unlikely—it’s structurally undesirable for those in power. Until these recognition-driven systems collapse or transform, Gaza’s future will remain suspended between rubble and rhetoric.
