  Anarchopathology of Language (1/5): From the Poetics of Enchantment to the Clamor of Propaganda in the Language of Political Careerism Mahmoud Sadeghi Janbahan “English translation provided by ChatGPT.”   Introduction Political language in modern history has consistently been exposed to a peculiar form of contamination—oscillating between two seemingly opposite yet essentially kindred poles: poeticization and sloganeering. At first sight, they appear as divergent modes of expression, yet in their deeper structure both converge on the same pathology: the reproduction of domination through the cultivation of excitement, deception, and spectacle. The language of domination, colonialism, and power-centered politics is at times veiled in seductive poetic guise, and at other times resounds through the noisy hollowness of slogans. In both cases, politics is distanced from the horizon of critical rationality, justice-oriented philosophizing, and freedom-seeking discourse. Inste...

  Moral Anarchopathology of Lies (3/3): Politicians’ Lies, a Sword Against Truth and Freedom Mahmoud Sadeghi Janbehan Translated by ChatGPT (OpenAI) Lies and the Escape from Human Responsibility Within the framework of moral anarchopathology, the deepest harm inflicted by lies lies in their capacity to generate irresponsibility—both toward oneself and toward the external world.

Their roots can be traced to Cain’s primordial deceit — a lie deployed not merely to conceal a crime, but to safeguard personal position and authority. Since then, lying has become the shared language of all power structures: a language that conceals truth to preserve the hierarchies of domination, manifesting in multiple forms across history. From the earliest power-driven deceptions to the modern narratives of politicians, social managers, self-proclaimed intellectuals, and political operatives, lies have functio...

Definition and Position of Moral Anarchopathology Moral anarchopathology is a branch of anarchology that studies ethical disorders and pathologies in connection with structures and practices of power. Unlike traditional psychological or social pathology approaches, which focus primarily on individual or group dysfunctions, this perspective emphasizes the systemic and structural links between ethical corruption and mechanisms of domination across individual, social, and political spheres. In moral anarchopathology, “lies” are not merely individual unethical behaviors, but complex, multi-layered phenomena that can have: Individual roots: traumatic experiences, authoritarian tendencies, erosion of moral courage, underdeveloped ethical rebellion ...
