marxism is not a philosophy for helping the downtrodden and lifting them up. it has never done so and it never will.
marxism is the ideological justification used by those who would oppress “we the people” and wield authority over us that they might be rich without being productive.
all they sell is false hope and lies about the sacrifices YOU must make so that THEY can rule.
marxism is what happens when you give that 80’s tele-evangelist who implored you to send him your kid’s college fund because “jesus wants me to have a jet airplane!” an army and he no longer has to ask.
he just comes and takes it.
it will not be different this time. it’s the same grift and wrapping it up in weaponized identity politics of race and gender to mask the faux-class war changes nothing. it’s still designed not to raise up the poor but to entrench the powerful into a permanent aristocracy that preys upon them and holds them in penury and prostration.
thus has it ever been:
and thus shall it ever be:
these new marxist movements are just the same devastating ideas with a fresh coat of paint and a slick set of post-modernist academic jargon.
but when you look closely, it’s just this: Big Lies Marxism
if you want a litmus test to spot an aristocracy in the making pretending to be a broad based social movement, try uttering the phrase “all lives matter” at a BLM rally and see what happens. if they turn on you claiming that your claim to the same rights they claim for themselves is verboten, racist, fascist, or some other impermissible “ist” then you have your proof.
for what can we call a group demanding rights and recognition for itself that it denies to others if not a budding aristocracy of “some animals declaring themselves more equal than others”?
dressing up tyranny of the other side as “reparations” or “pluralism” or “community” is the oldest trick in the marxist playbook. it comes right before taking control to “lead the masses to social or class consciousness” (generally from a dacha on the black sea or a palace in beijing, though apparently “topanga canyon” will do in a pinch…) and living in opulence while relegating one’s own followers to perpetual penury and deprivation by force of arms. there are NO counterexamples. none.
anyone who falls for this deserves the subjugation they are about to get, and believe me, it’s coming.
The difference between Stalin and Hitler, best buddies between 1939-41 and both sharing "Socialism" as their totem, was that the latter wrote himself Mein Kampf as a brand new playbook, while the former stuck to Marx's vintage rulebooks for oppression, or "wokeness" in it's current and updated edition.
"For each new class which puts itself in the place of one ruling before it, is compelled, merely in order to carry through its aim, to represent its interest as the common interest of all the members of society, that is, expressed in ideal form: it has to give its ideas the form of universality, and represent them as the only rational, universally valid ones."
Very eloquent as always...my fear is that those of us in the minority who are willing to stand up and speak out, will still be made to kneel down later if we don’t succeed in alerting enough people to the coming danger. I came to the US fleeing socialism over 40 years ago. The problem today is that there’s nowhere left to run, and while I have created a comfortable, rewarding life for myself and my loved ones here, I can’t afford my own island.
recent reports of the January 6th rioters being held in solitary confinement is further dehumanization of "the other".
so here's your to-do list: #1 move to free state, #2 get involved to make it more free, #3 buy gun and train with it. even after they purge the military and Federal law enforcement of political dissidents, the Marxists still won't be able to do everything they want for one very simple reason.. they have not taken our guns.
I read your posts with trepidation as you hit the truth nail on the head, always. I just don't know what to do as an older, retired person except to share what you are saying in hopes I will wake one person up from this dream-state that is quickly morphing into nightmare status. Any suggestions as to what I can do?
The traits that allow one to excel in communism will leave that person destitute or in prison in a free market setting. Cruelty, barbarism, and willingness to worship human idols are the key traits to excelling in a communist system.
I came across this via Twatter (I hate it but it is where I started reading you and others while seeking covid sanity so it is not all bad). This is rather remarkable IMO:
I have been adhering to the Tolstoy "reason" for all this: that this not a movement led by a single human or group; but instead a movement of a billion thoughts and whispers from a mass of people. In other words, we aren't being led here; "we" WANT this. The soil is fertile for totalitarianism. People want Big Something (govt, tech, pharma, enterprise, etc) to tell them what is good for them and tell them what to do. Sadly, to paraphrase Tolstoy "The West went into the East and then the East went into the West" and I am deadly afraid that these idiots need to go into communism - to really give it a go - before they will realize the error of their ways...

Animal Farm, by Orwell. There you see everything. It was required reading when I was in High School.

Thanks for the post. I AM a White cell. It has cost friends and even family, but my sovereignty is sacred!

So glad to have your newsfeed!

What was the name of the sci gi book where people were handicapped so everyone was equal. I think it had Henry in the title .
Jordan Peterson has done numerous lectures on this topic that are excellent. This is one that condenses much of it into 10 mins.
