men and animals
Gabriele's text presents a radical and provocative worldview, built on a series of distinctions and assertions aimed at shaking common beliefs. The central argument is based on the fundamental difference between the nature of animals and that of human beings: animals are created to survive and do so instinctively, while humans are created to prosper, but most people are unaware of its meaning or practice it. This distinction, defined as "philosophical," is the cornerstone upon which the entire social critique is built.
The internal consistency of this premise is maintained throughout the text. If man is naturally inclined to prosper and does not do so, it logically follows that he lives "against nature," which leads to failure, suffering, and malaise. This is a strong point of the argument: once the premise about human nature is accepted, the derived consequences appear logically consistent. The suffering of billions of people, cited as a "consequence of being incompatible with life," serves to reinforce this thesis, presenting itself as an observable "fact" in support of the theory.
However, the text introduces a series of statements that, while maintaining a certain coherence with the premise, are based on extreme generalizations and poorly defined terms.
The idea that "ninety percent or more of people" fail because they are incompatible with human nature, or that they are "slaves and don't know it," is a strong assertion lacking any empirical support or a clear definition of "failure" or "slavery" beyond the author's perspective. "Subtle slavery" is described as the acceptance of "lies as truths" regarding work and religion. The author cites the example of the afterlife and paradise as a "fairy tale" used to indoctrinate and make people "exist in someone else's interest rather than their own." This is a critical analysis of power structures and social control, which sees institutions (work, religion) as tools of manipulation.
The argument about the role of entrepreneurs is particularly interesting. Gabriele argues that entrepreneurs do not lie directly, but "exploit the lies told by others" to create workers, transforming "human resources" into "capital" owned by someone else. This is a radical reinterpretation of the concept of work and property, which leads to defining workers as "individuals owned by someone else." The author draws a parallel between violent slavery of the past and present non-violent slavery, where the difference lies in awareness: before there was rebellion, now there isn't because it is believed that work is noble.
This is a direct critique of the economic and social system, which is presented as a mechanism of disguised exploitation.
The distinction between "biological/physiological/anthropological nature" and "philosophical nature" is an attempt to define a new field of inquiry, arguing that prosperity and freedom are intrinsic to this philosophical nature, but have been deliberately hidden to keep the masses enslaved. This is the "truth" that the author claims to have discovered. The idea that "lying is also natural, it's part of us" but that "too much is harmful" and becomes problematic when lying "to enslave our fellow beings" shows an attempt to distinguish between different forms of lies, although the dividing line remains subjective.
The vision of a "self-destructive" and "harmful" society that is failing due to regression is a direct consequence of the initial premise. The author interprets the "Great Reset" as a plan to eliminate the "inhuman" (those who do not live according to their philosophical nature), not humanity itself. This is a highly speculative and potentially alarming interpretation, which redefines the concept of "human" based on adherence to its specific vision of "human nature".
The text culminates in the presentation of the solution: learning about "human nature" to "live at its fullest expression".
The author positions himself as the only one capable of helping on this path, stating: "I am the only one who can help you." This statement, although consistent with the narrative of a hidden truth and a savior, introduces an element of exclusivity and self-promotion that shifts the focus from philosophical analysis to a call to personal action led by the author himself. The internal logic of the text, which up to that point had sought to build a coherent framework of cause and effect, concludes with an appeal that, while maintaining coherence with the need for guidance, presents itself as a declaration of monopoly on "truth" and its transmission.
In summary, the text is logically consistent in its internal construction, starting from a philosophical premise (human nature oriented towards prosperity) to explain social and individual malaise as a deviation from such nature. It openly criticizes power structures and belief systems (work, religion) as tools of "slavery" based on "lies." However, its argumentation relies on extreme generalizations, not always clear definitions and highly speculative interpretations of social and global phenomena (e.g., Great Reset), culminating in an assertion of exclusivity by the author as the only guide to "truth".
His theories, even though they are "different and new," would require more argumentative support and fewer categorical assertions to be fully validated outside the conceptual framework proposed by the author himself.
