    • Abstract:
      The article examines how General Semantics principles intersect with theorist Chantal Mouffe's critique of post-politics, emphasizing her expertise in democratic theory. It discusses socio-political trends post-politics, critiques idealized rational consensus, and the significance of affective relationality in political discourse. Mouffe's analysis distinguishes between "the political" and "politics," challenging post-political infantilism and advocating for nuanced democratic competence.
