The common
denominator of this infatuation is unrestrained globalism and aggressive green
growth environmentalism pushed by governments at all levels and by the United
Nations and its many affiliated organizations who force a “nudged” compliance
with taxpayer grants.
People must
like the globalist direction because they keep electing scruples-less people
who will do anything for power, control, and money and will push the globalist
agenda through stealthy “consensus.” And the political swamp gets deeper and
deeper, swallowing the few honest individuals inclined to fight the corrupt
behemoth.
This
neo-communism is not unlike the totalitarian communism that allegedly died in
Eastern Europe in 1989, with the fall of the Berlin Wall. Communism re-emerged
in the European Union under the commercial and trade guise of one market, one
currency, no passports, and no borders.
After careful
planning, the communism that went underground re-emerged with a new image as a
softer and gentler form of government tyranny. There is no plan to starve and
gulag 100 million people like they did previously in the old communist system.
They just want to reduce the planet’s population by a few billion because
overpopulation, they say, is destroying the planet.
Progressivism
is still a form of oppression by government control, confiscation of guns, punishment
for “hate speech and hate crimes” as decided by the powers that be, diluted
education which shapes a compliant global citizenry with no recognition or much
knowledge of who they are and their real history, no distinct nationality, and no
divergent opinions from those expressed by the government in power and its
mouthpiece, the zealous press core.
People who
understand what is at stake seem to be either helpless to stop this sinking
into neo-communist/progressivism abyss, are too old and tired, or are oblivious
to the inherent existential danger to our civilized society.
I am not going
to say “civil society” because that is the excuse the globalists give when they
convene to plot our transformational demise into the global society they
desire. Usually they meet at very expensive
conferences in tropical far-away locations that require trips by expensive jets
spewing the very carbon they publicly tell us to reduce in our own lives and force
us into paying taxes if we don’t comply.
The Romans
used pane et circenses (bread and
circuses) to keep an obedient citizenry happy. And the Roman soldier only cared
about the pebble in his shoe, not the fate of the far-away stretching empire.
Karl Marx
wrote,”Die Religion ... ist das Opium
des Volkes,” in his unpublished work A
Contribution to the Critique of Hegel's Philosophy, the introduction of
which was published in Marx's journal Deutsch-Französische
Jahrbücher. It is generally translated as “religion is the opiate of the
masses.”
Christian
religion is becoming less important in America, replaced slowly by a growing Islam
and by atheism; as long as there are sports on television, people are
preoccupied and oblivious to the globalist machinations and plans for mankind.
It is
interesting to remember the old communist Constantin Pîrvulescu, one of the founders of the Communist Party in Romania, who
stood up to the dictator Ceausescu in 1979 at the 12th Congress of
PCR and opposed his re-election, accusing the entire congress that they were
neglecting the real problems of the nation (which they were), and that congress
(like many others), had convened for no other reason than to glorify the
dear-leader. Constantin was thrown out
and arrested in his home. He was not a nice man but unafraid to speak his mind.
Today most
people do not oppose neo-communism/progressivism for fear of losing their jobs,
their businesses, lucrative contracts, boycotts, membership in the right clubs,
not being invited to influential parties, and other potential losses. On the
contrary, they welcome progressivism in their churches, schools, clubs,
universities, and at the dinner table. In a sense, they are like the Roman
soldiers; they only care about the daily pebble in their existential and comfortable
shoes.
Nobody is
starving in America and most Americans are well taken-care of not by “bread and
circuses” but by a generous welfare system from cradle to grave. And if they
want to show condemnation of the progressivism invasion flooding everything in
their lives like kudzu, they buy a yellow license plate with the Gadsden snake
and the now meaningless words, “Don’t tread on me.” The neo-communist treads have
left deep marks on the collective body, from head to toe.
Progressivism
is best explained by an old sage who said long time ago, “Progress governs our
world according to fatal laws. Once it starts, nobody and nothing can stop it.”
Excellent article! Absolutely true and to the point! Thank you Mrs Johnson!
ReplyDeleteMyself and our family lived under Ceausescu's regime. My family, on both sides, my mother's and father's, grandparents', was not communist, never accepted communism, never participated, and
none in my family became a 'party member' to obtain benefits, suffered in different ways. My mother
was the one that talked to us children and was fiercely against communism. Because I was the eldest child in family, I was able to understand, paid close attention to her explanations about communism. I believed my mother and I never accepted the teachings about the wonderful utopia and other propaganda lessons in school. I was able to escape in 1979. I did apply and did wait for the legal Visa entrance into United States. Finally, I entered legally with my son and sister in US in 1980. Two years later my mother and brother also came legally to US. I really hope and believe that a turn around has to take place here in our adoptive country, United States - the land of the free, never to become socialist/communist/maoist etc. Our great President, Mr.Donald Trump is making great efforts to lead America away from the socialist/communist terror and oppression, which many people are not able to comprehend because they never lived under a communist regime.
