Summary/Abstract: Political, economic, civilizational and social changes in the last few decades have led to a global anomie, and in this reality it was possible for the ideology of disruption to arise. If society were not immersed in the process of decomposing existing normative regulations, such marketing of quasi-revolutionary ideas would be doomed to failure. Undermining the sense of normative regulation of goals and replacing them with new ones (surrounded by a false myth of improving the world) is an example of anomie used to maximize profits (not only in the financial sense). Simultaneously, two new mechanisms of social control have been developed and consolidated – control through emotions and control through the creation of illusions. This text is a preliminary attempt to analyse the above phenomena and processes.
