[Billet d'humour] Pastef : le pouvoir est dans le groupe… WhatsApp
There was a time when political parties expelled their dissenters through disciplinary committees, registered letters, and press conferences. In the new Pastef, revolution now consists of a flick of the thumb: "Remove from the group." The guillotine is digital, the sanction instantaneous, the dishonor in high definition.
Yesterday, you lost your party membership card. Today, you mainly lose the right to read the "prayer times" shared each morning. Excommunication, 5G version.
One thing must be acknowledged: Pastef has invented a swift form of justice. No more need to convene a disciplinary board; an administrator with a connection, a stable internet connection, and presto… off to the Facebook waiting room, where all the banned members come to share their passion for internal debate.
The funny thing is, the real political barometer is no longer the Official Journal, but the list of WhatsApp administrators. Being a minister is less reassuring than being an admin. A CEO can fall. A chairman of the board, even a minister, can falter, but the administrator, he's the one who distributes digital citizenship.
The paradox is delicious. What was once the weapon of conquest of power has now become the instrument of domestic purges.
But by constantly silencing dissenting voices, you end up governing a discussion… not a country. Because the people are not a contact you can simply remove from a loop. Power outages don't leave the group, unemployment cannot be stopped, and the high cost of living stubbornly refuses to be eliminated for everyone.
In politics, there comes a point when the "Remove from group" button stops working. On that day, the group removes the administrators.
