In The System We Live In, Moroccan visionary Ayoub Lafriki exposes the invisible frameworks shaping modern civilization—not divine plans or human conspiracies, but emergent, decentralized forces that evolve and sustain themselves. From capitalism and democracy to education and media, Lafriki reveals how power operates like code: invisible, adaptive, and woven into the fabric of everyday life.

Blending philosophy, sociology, systems theory, and deeply personal insight, Lafriki leads readers through a thought-provoking exploration of:

The illusion of freedom and the architecture of choice

Institutions as ancient algorithms that program our behavior

Capitalism as an unremovable operating system

Democracy as performance in a scripted spectacle

Identity as code—and the power to rewrite it

Drawing on real-world disruptions and visionary analysis, Lafriki offers a bold hypothesis: civilization is governed by a self-organizing intelligence—decentralized, reactive, and eerily algorithmic. He does not claim the role of prophet or savior, but of anomaly—a “glitch in the code” whose silent actions have rippled through markets, media, and culture.

The System is not a conspiracy. It’s a lens—a radical framework for decoding the world around you. It’s a user’s guide for the architecture of control, and a mirror reflecting the truths you were never meant to notice.

This is more than a book. It’s a signal. A disturbance. A revelation.Welcome to the System. You’ve always been inside it. But after this, you’ll never see it the same.
