How should we respond to the increasing approval for racist and exclusionary positions among significant segments of the population? FEAR MACHINE brings to the stage a sequence of events that reveals the connection between colonial history and the current expansion of anti-immigration policies in Europe. It highlights how modern borders, both concrete and symbolic, continue to be built upon the political and economic profits of colonial practices. To suppress public awareness and reactions, those who hold political and financial power combine a crude and blunt nationalism with sophisticated communication technologies to manipulate fear and frustration. By offering “easy solutions”, they exploit processes of “othering” and polarization. Mass and social media function as key elements for transforming the social frustration into fear of the “others”: the fear of losing the job becomes the fear of new immigrant colleagues, the fear of losing the flat turns into the fear of new neighbors, the fear of losing understanding and connection becomes the fear of unfamiliar cultures and the fear of future is reframed as fear of diversity. They make resistance increasingly difficult by capturing and reworking feminist and left-wing slogans into conservative statements that legitimize sexism and patriarchal notions of family. As a result, the activists are left speechless.
