Alexandre Saint-Yves was the founder of the school of thought known as synarchism. Saint-Yves created synarchism as a direct opponent to anarchism. Anarchism was gaining international influence by way of the International Workingmen's Association, which, for the first time in world history, had united the working class across national boundaries, and in a way that the idle classes had failed to do. That is, until Saint-Yves's reaction to the anarchists.
In order to stop the anarchists, Saint-Yves and his followers established networks and leagues of bankers, industrialists, politicians, and occult mystics. Together, they would prop up business magnates beyond their natural, internal capacities, thereby establishing gods among men, consistent in some respects with some of their sentiments toward the mythical Nephilim of the Bible. They would also corrupt labor unions from their revolutionary forms into reformist and corporatist "business unions" or "yellow unions" and direct the Left toward self-defeating causes accompanied by pessimistic worldviews, eventually culminating in a New Left that has forsaken class consciousness for identarian particularisms of various solipsistic flavors, effectively dividing and conquering the working class that the anarchists had appealed to. Synarchists established the global organizations and the "deep states"
or "shadow governments" that national governments now answer to.
One of the most useful tools for the synarchists was the Archeometer, which was developed by Saint-Yves. This was an occult mapping that coordinated various elements of different domains of human sensation in a synesthetic fashion, as by pairing sounds with colors with shapes, etc. This was important for establishing what would later be identified with "mystique," or groundless passions directed toward an unknown end, an idea that would become prominent among the crypto-synarchist personalist movement. By repeatedly coordinating certain sounds, colors, shapes, and etc. subconscious programming established themes that would have strong effects, particularly upon human automatons, those who are very open to suggestion to the point of being manipulable. Professor Jiang has recently discussed his belief that similar sorts of magic were used to control the Egyptian pharaohs way back in the day, and suggests that presidents today are similarly automata controlled by secret societies. However, it seems apparent that the general population has been subjected to similar powers of suggestion.
Color magic, for instance, is prominent in corporate advertising. This does not work simply because colors are innately meaningful-- Nature offers no such absolute theme--, even on an archetypal or subconscious sort of level, but because they have been made themes by concerted efforts. As such, colors like red tend to be associated with food marketing, and green for environmental products. Likewise, the accompaniment of certain sounds with different emotions that correspond to scenarios in fictional scripts are often enough to emote a certain feeling within the listener, even in absence of the scenes, and even if the movie the soundtrack is for has not been seen. This, again, is not because certain sounds are innately meaningful-- it is mostly arbitrary which is used--, but because there has been a correlated effort to maintain themes.
One of the ways this plays out in our culture today is that there have been mystiquel themes established in the population, which one is compelled to align themselves with, and indeed rewarded for with belonging or more for doing so. These sorts of themes are embodied within different subcultures and political tribes, which often overlap, such that a particular subculture or set of subcultures may provide the soundtrack and fashion for a given political tribe. In my case, I grew up with the peas and carrots of listening to punk rock and believing in anarchy, things I still do today even while trying to be mindful of the powers of suggestion as well as a general attitude of open pluralism with regard to the subcultures and political beliefs of others. If we do not transcend our subcultures to become more whole, we function as zombies awaiting commands so as to appease the crowd of the other zombies we have limited ourselves to affiliate with.
People's subcultures and tribes, which ultimately emanate from financial and distribution centers, can be known by way of general fashion sense at times, but nothing is more revealing than tribal leadership signaling. This involves the use of icons to signal participation in or affinity toward a particular political tribe or subculture. I did this when I was younger, subconsciously, when I would wear punk band T-shirts or draw punk band logos all over my binder at school. If you wear band shirts or draw logos, you are doing the same, even if not obvious to you. It was cool, but why? If I am retrospectively honest, and look beyond my conscious intentions, to my subconscious, I was signaling having elected subcultural leaders, hoping others would likewise identify with me as belonging to the same tribe, the "Crass tribe" or "Black Flag tribe" or "Dead Kennedys tribe," if not just the "punk tribe" in general, taking those others to constitute a general leadership council, or council of elders, of sorts, to my subconscious. Interestingly, while punk rock was my introduction to anarchism, a consistent look into anarchism dissuaded me from continuing in these such behaviors past the highschool age.
Self-actualization and individuation requires that we reach for our most authentic, genuine selves, with all things considered. The more me get caught up in mystique, themes, subcultures, political tribes, and other boxes, the less genuine and authentic we become, even while more successfully signalling participation and a desire for belonging and relation to others, for which we are often rewarded.

Hi! The Ambiarchy Blog link doesn’t work.
Could you please add some sources to your texts? Many of the statements aren’t really understandable without context.
Hi! Thank you so much for letting me know about the link!
I prefer to describe things in-text because I endorse so few texts taken as a whole, but I do often add quotes, paraphrases, and citations if I am preparing a work for print.
Let me know what you would like further context on and I will be happy to provide the context for you. You are welcome to discuss the matter with me as deeply as is needed to make it clear. That is what I am here for! It will also help me to patch anything I need to and may also assist other readers in their understanding.
