Political gatekeeping

[Estro Felino]

First of all, let us define what gatekeeping is.

Gatekeepers are people who pretend to side with a particular ideology, but actually they have been hired by the opposite ideology to deceive the people, pushing them to follow them.
In politics, certain élites hire these politicians (gatekeepers) who will claim they are against the very same élites that they hired them.

This is I believe, is the real political fraud of the 21st century.
Since the Left has always been supposed to defend the weak and to be liked by the people (middle class and the less fortunate), the banking élites hire, pay those leftist politicians, to pretend to side with the commoners, but actually they are totally loyal to the banking and financial élites.


That is why the biggest fraud is before our eyes in Europe. People like Macron or Draghi claim they are leftist...actually they are just bankers or bankers' employees.

And that is, mesdames and messieurs...what the European Left has become. The lounge-loving and carefree Left.
They call themselves lefttists, but they despise the populace (grocers, bakers, fishermen). They prefer to sip cocktails in luxurious lounges, talking with bankers.

 

[Estro Felino]

On the contrary, I am a real leftist.
I side with the commoners.
I am a socialist.

I totally side against these financial and banking élites who have successfully destroyed Greece, and they mean to destroy Italy, Ireland, France, Portugal and Spain too.

 

[Estro Felino]

So those who claim to be lefist, but actually side with these élites, are not credible, imho.

 

[Lyndon]

but macron is right wing not left

 

[SomeRandom]

I think online this phenomenon is known as “grifting.”

 

[Estro Felino]

but macron is right wing not left

That's for sure.
He calls himself Left, though.

Also.

Macron is (was) more liberal with a right wong lean than left. But i guess right wing Italian news tells it different to demonise him. With the upcoming election he has moved further to the right in the hope of also catching some right wing voters who are moving to far right facist type parties like le Pen and Zemmour

 

[Mock Turtle]

That's for sure.
He calls himself gauche, though.

Presumably not this meaning though:

Urban Dictionary: gauche

 

[Guitar's Cry]

Both Republicans and Democrats do this in the US: say they're for the working class, then don't deliver.

Leftist in French

Exactly.
If they were leftist, democrats would immediately implement free universal healthcare.
But they are not.
They pretend.

They demonize him only for being linked to banking élites.

 

[ChristineM]

They demonize him only for being related to banking élites.

Big deal, im related (in ancestry) to a Viking king, does that make me a murderous rapist?

This truth can be applied in so many applications.

The right have always preferred such persuits as sipping cocktail in luxury lounges and loathing mr average unless they can make profit from them so what is you gripe?

On the contrary, I am a real leftist.
I side with the commoners.
I am a socialist.

How does it benefit a bank to " destroy" a country

Overall, I agree that most politicians are phonies who pretend to be with the masses, but are really with the elites. In the U.S., they're sometimes referred to as "limousine liberals."

Perhaps a good way to determine who is with the elite and who isn't would be to observe the tone and direction of the mainstream media. Whoever gets the most negative coverage is who the elite hate the most. That can sometimes have the opposite effect on the people. Some people might reason, if the elite hate someone, then that must be someone on the people's side.

 

[epronovost]

That's for sure.
He calls himself Left, though.

No he doesn't. He calls himself a centrist politician.

PS: Gatekeeping is referring to the activities people who control information flow in a system. The media are gatekeepers of information as would marketing agency, PR people. In slang it refers to people who control access and membership to a special group. What you are referring to seems to be more like a form of demagoguery.

I side with the commoners.
I am a compassionate capitalist.

I totally side against elites who are trying to destroy the United States.
