Pessimism, non-resistance, appeals to the 'Spirit' is the ideology that inevitably appears in an epoch when the whole of the old order is 'turned upside down', and when the masses who have been brought up under this old order, who imbibed with their mother's milk the principles, the habit, the traditions and beliefs of this order, do not and cannot see what kind of a new order is 'taking shape', what social forces are 'shaping' it, and how they are doing it, what social forces are capable of bringing release from the incalculable and exceptionally acute distress that is characteristic of epochs of 'upheaval'.
