At present, politicians of the West are no longer servants of the public. They developed and pursue their own hidden interests and agendas. They have detached themselves from the interests of the people and have become independent. Democracy depends on honesty and transparency – the Greeks knew that, and issued heavy punishments for lying politicians. Our current democracy system is undermined by propaganda, lies and lobbyists.
Even education is controlled and prescribed by the state.
With Corona, we started to witness the totalitarian trend in our society. In order to turn this situation towards the better, and not make our society worse (e.g. digital totalitarianism, which was started with the introduction of the Green Pass and Vaccine Passports in 2021 and will be refined with Digital ID in the UK and in Europe), it is up to us citizens, the people, to educate ourselves and demand and create a healthy, new and better system from our servants (the politicians), or we must suffer the consequences of sleepwalking into a most unhealthy, repressive system.
So please educate yourself below about what constitutes a healthy system.
Social Threefolding for the Social Organism
Human society is a large organism; the so-called Social Organism.
As an example, we can perceive the effects of our digestion and our liver, but we cannot see the liver or the intestines themselves. Similarly, we see the effects of our social organism every day, but can not see the organism itself.
When the social organism is treated correctly, it is healthy and society develops positively. If not, the system falls ill, showing various unpleasant symptoms such as totalitarianism, war, poverty, oppression, exploitation, injustice, environmental destruction etc.
The worst outcome is to not be able to fulfil one’s own path and purpose in life because of society’s sickness; when society is so ill that it cannot support the development and unfolding of the individual. The system just causes suffering.
A healthy Social Organism is a reflection of basic human needs, and therefore only requires the awareness of three simple principles in order to be healthy and to remain healthy.
These three principles should be represented and guaranteed through three separate governments; the three separate but co-operating governments are working for:
••• FREEDOM in the cultural/spiritual sphere
Would you like to be able to think, speak and express your opinion freely?
In thinking, we must be free and able to express our individuality. Freedom in our thinking-life means freedom and development in spiritual, intellectual, scientific, cultural and artistic matters. Also, the educational system is not controlled or directed by the state, but free from their influence. The education system is financed from the profits of economic activity (see below).
In a healthy system, it is important to ensure that freedom of thought is preserved. The best thinkers, artists, teachers, scientists compete in thinking.
Negative example: dictatorship, propaganda, state-given educational content that counteracts true democracy.
We need one government that ensures freedom in thought and intellectual and cultural life.
••• EQUALITY in legal and political life
Would you like the law to be applied equally to you as it is to others? Or should elite people be treated differently?
This government develops laws through democratic decision-making processes, and these laws apply equally to everyone.
For this, we need a government that organizes equality in legal life. Basically, we already have this government, but it has overgrown and encroaches on both intellectual and economic life, which makes all three systems extremely unhealthy for humans and our development – see the state of our ’social‘ world and environment. It does not focus properly on its main job and allows corruption and elitism to flourish.
••• CONNECTEDNESS in economic activity
Would you like help when you face financial, material or economic hardship? Is it good to have co-operation when developing a product or project?
Please, for a moment, imagine the development of a woolly jumper: first there is the farmer who looks after the sheep. After shearing, the raw wool is made into yarn through many processes in a factory. This yarn is then knitted into a sweater at another factory, packaged, and transported to a store where you can eventually buy it. Many hard-working hands and bright minds had to work well together to make this product.
We all need products and services for our lives – that is the essence of business: to provide each other with what we need for our life. If we do not co-operate and support each other in a human, ‘brotherly’ or ‘sisterly’ way, products will not be created, and we experience other serious problems; see the economic inequality of the world through capitalism (extreme wealth next to stifling poverty). The education system is financed from the profits of economic activity.
For this economic connectedness, we need a third government, which assures solidarity, mutual help and co-operation in the economic life.

*) At the moment, we still have too little awareness and understanding of the importance of this Social Organism with its three ‚organs‘. In order to create a truly healthy new form of society, we must first raise awareness of these three basic principles: – Freedom in thinking. Equality in law. Cooperation in the economic sphere. After that, there is a lot of detailed work to be done in order to better understand them, work out the details involved, and implement them.
Awareness and understanding of the social organism of society came from Rudolf Steiner in 1920, who proposed this system as a remedy in Germany after the First World War. Unfortunately, it was rejected by only one vote, and the result was more problems in society; the rise of Hitler and World War II which caused millions of deaths and enormous suffering to most many, many people on this planet. Now, 100 years later, we have another chance for a new, healthier system. We again have a choice. If we do not choose, then somebody else (the elite) will choose for us, and they do not have our interests at heart, but their own, with the potential of digital totalitarianism, which again will cause enormous loss of freedoms and lots of oppression and suffering.
