The American Left Marches to Deliver Cultural Marxism

The midterm elections are over. The predicted red tsunami fizzled to a few bubbles in a washtub. The blues have won again. Who chose the color for the conservative party to be red and the socialists to be blue? Was this another ploy to conceal how communist red the Democrat Party had become?

Congress barely returned to the GOP with a razor thin margin and, as such, will predictably do nothing to salvage what is left of the country and of the economy. The Socialist Democrats have been re-elected in most states and their new brethren joined them in Congress.

The Millennials and the Generation Z have turned up to vote, in uncharacteristically high numbers, motivated by the abortion slogan, ‘my right, my body.' They needed a venue besides TikTok to whine about their pronouns, facial rings, tattoos, having to work, and having to pay for their social justice college degrees.

Generation Z voters and Millennials are destroying the west. Their brainwashed, uninformed, and drug-happy individuals drive the narrative in the mainstream media and through outrageous and nonsensical acts of civil disobedience. They are malleable tools/fools in the arsenal of the rich globalists and American elitists, the “useful idiots” the Soviets described artfully.

Older generations, dedicated to their ways of voting, are helping in the destruction because they are swayed by the media, happy to read the communist papers, too tired to search for themselves, or entrenched in their old Democrat Party, not understanding that the Democrat Party had been hijacked long time ago by the Soviet commie activists who had promised that they will turn America into communism through miseducation.

It is important to lefties that abortion, marijuana, and other debauched ways be continued under the Democrat Party who promises perennial welfare and does not shy away from introducing more perversions and immorality into public schools, starting in kindergarten.

As you destroy the western civilization, Millennials and Generation Z, remember that there is no such thing as a free meal and socialist dictators are not very tolerant, and your debauched and crazy lifestyle will come to an end in a truly socialist society.

Gen Z and Millennials, as you are actively destroying your country, screaming in public that you want a better future, free of climate change, and you are tired of capitalism, remember that, once you are at the mercy of the totalitarian government, all the benefits afforded to you by a capitalist economy will cease to exist.

Destroying public property, chaining yourselves on major streets, and gluing yourselves to priceless works of art, while screaming that “the planet is dying, stop using fossil fuels,” you are shooting yourselves in the proverbial foot and worse.

Without fossil fuels, life as you know it, will cease to exist. You will be very cold, very hot, in the dark, unable to go very far, no smart devices, no food, no water, no sanitation, no medical care, no medicines, no cars, everything that you enjoy and makes life worth living will disappear and you will exist in a state of constant misery and pain unlike any you can possibly imagine. You will be just a cog in the government machine, you will own nothing, and be forcibly happy about it.

You are going to have to work in many unpleasant and undesirable jobs and locations, wherever the communist party in charge of the government tells you to go. The TikTok barista whining and crying about how hard his job at Starbucks is, where there are too many customers and not enough help for the baristas, will be history.

As you cry that your human “rights’ are taken away from you and you cannot have an abortion on demand in your neighborhood, and even kill your baby after it is born, remember that dictatorial regimes do not offer abortions at all, and it is harder and more expensive to even find birth control pills. Nobody offers them to you for free and you cannot demand or get any freebies.

Employees at Twitter, Facebook, and Google, while you enjoy safe spaces to find yourselves, yoga, free health food, lattes, free daycare, free gyms, and other obscene benefits at work, remember that socialist regimes do not give you such a work environment, on the contrary, you get bare minimums, and your “rights” are constantly infringed upon and even taken away at the comrade in charge’s whims.

I did not grow up in America, but I experienced the tail end of the seventies when the journalist liars and brazen socialists anchored the five channels we could watch, the same famous media “giants” and personalities who kept us in the dark with their monopoly on public opinion and asymmetric information.

Before the social media arrived in the twenty-first century, we venerated these public opinion shapers, adopting their Democrat Socialism one report and one news hour at a time, while we firmly believed that we had “capitalism,” i.e., free markets, fair elections, and an American culture free of indoctrination by media stars, public schools, and academia.

It is not the social media that caused the fundamental transformation of society, it is the owners and executive of various corporate boards, colleges, schools, who control the platforms, aiding and abetting the “deconstruction of American education” which is now identified as cultural Marxism. People smarter than I am know that, to fix this problem, we must have technology in the right hands. But who decides what the right hands are?

Technology so far, fully in the hands of the “woke and progressive” generations, has stifled debate and divergent opinions through heavy censorship on their social platforms and ad hominem attacks, and has controlled what they deem “disinformation” and “misinformation” by using and citing as reliable sources the same news media empires who had helped shape the Cultural Marxist public opinion in the first place.

Woke-ism is now present in many TV shows, movies, series, and books.

Publishers no longer pretend to print books by conservative or libertarian authors. The bookstores are drowning in woke and liberal authors, on more outrageous topics than one can recount, authors whose ramblings are not worthy of publishing but come in many editions. Democrat Socialist politicians have many books in print, dedicated to their “accomplishments.”

Formerly family-friendly channels have adopted scripts and made movies in which the characters represent racial diversity (even when the original books were written for Caucasian characters), homosexuality, transgenderism, social justice, and other topics dear to the woke generation’s heart.

Ads present non-whites as more intelligent and the “dumb” white people have either disappeared, have a minor role, or a non-speaking part in the ads.

Characters in movies and TikTok video “celebs” sport heavy facial rings, more tattoos than ever, and pink, green, orange, purple, and blue hair.

Unattractive and fat men pretend to be women, models, women sports contestants, and beauty pageant winners. Dishonest reporters of all stripes address the woke pretenders with the pronouns of their fantasy reality, further distorting truth, and making an insane mockery of biology. In this insane world, men can have babies, and women must share a bathroom with men suffering from dysphoria.

The American left marches on to deliver Cultural Marxism. Everything degenerate and immoral goes as America devolves into the days, months, and years of a comatose empire moving into a reality worthy of the twilight zone.

#Resist, a Global Commie Totalitarian Movement

The leftist hordes of a communist political culture are on the march around the globe, in alliance with Islamofascism. These young people are shaped by universities, the media, Hollywood with their trashy productions and vile behavior, corrupt politicians with allegiance only to their own pockets, the multi-nationals, the corrupt judiciary, unions, and non-profits with billions and billions of dollars of funding from elitist billionaires such as George Soros who fancy themselves the social engineers of one world government and of the climate change industry.

What happened to American universities since the early 1970s has finally reverberated around the world, like a wave created by a small stone thrown on a placid lake. It has now become a tsunami of #resist anarchists and drones around the western world. They are now resisting authority, law and order, and the capitalist system that had made their parents successful in the first place. Marching under the banner of feminism and equality, asking to be Muslims, and promoting the subjugation of women in western societies, violent millennials are bullying anybody who is a Christian and a nationalist.

Campuses have become bastions of leftism and anti-Americanism. According to David Horowitz, the schools of education are now training teachers for social justice in every major.  “An entire series of texts designed for teacher instruction and published by Columbia Teachers College is devoted to ‘teaching social justice’ in mathematics and other unlikely subjects. Its editor is Obama collaborator and unrepentant terrorist William Ayers.” (David Horowitz, “Big Agenda,” p. 117)

Even in former Soviet-bloc countries the curriculum at all levels has been diluted by inconsequential studies that add nothing to scholarship or knowledge: ethnic studies, women’s studies, islamophobia studies, intersectionality, mixing biology, sex, religion, age, caste, nationality, race, and other bizarre criteria as systems of domination, discrimination, and oppression – all because the left finds social inequality and injustice everywhere.

Universities are no longer places of scholarship, invention, discovery, divergent opinions, peaceful discussion, but places of miseducation, indoctrination, and brainwashing. What these academics have achieved in a few decades, the totalitarian communists could only dream of. Inadequate graduates, who should have never been admitted to college in the first place, are now vessels of little knowledge who were told ad nauseam what to think, not how to think.

Radicals have crawled from the underground, spurred on by eight years of a radical American president who stoked the culture and racial wars non-stop, bringing America and its economy to its knees. The rest of the world watched in horror and disbelief the fall of the once great nation while dealing with their own problems brought on by a planned refugee invasion of Europe of millions of unvetted refugees from Middle-Eastern and African countries that harbor camps of Islamists fighting a holy war against Christianity.

Angela Merkel of Germany has managed to destroy her own country and many other countries in Europe who were forced to accept this flood of mostly single young Muslim men. And allegations are floating that she did it in order to save face, for optics, as the media would have gone berserk watching women and children being stopped at the border. For the sake of Merkel’s optics, Europe has become a safe-haven for terrorists and savages who slash and burn their way across many European countries with generous welfare states and no backbone to say no because it contradicts their multiculturalist generosity and Fabian socialist values.

It is not just the European youth who want to stay in college forever at the expense of government, with no idea as to what kind of taxes the rest of society must pay for all the welfare. Millennials are learning from their European counterparts that they deserve everything for free simply because they exist. The elderly in the former Iron Curtain countries are longing for the “simple days of communism.” And the young, who have no experience or idea what communism was like foolishly vote and demonstrate to bring about neo-communism.

The youth of Macedonia are involved in #resist and are active in trying to destabilize their center-right government, using anarchist advice from a translation into Macedonian of Saul Alinsky’s book, Rules for Radicals, and money from the many radical NGOs in the west, allegedly including the Open Society Foundations.

Much of the youth in Romania who demonstrated by the hundreds of thousands for days, resisting (#resist) against an imaginary oppression, did not bother to vote because the government was not giving them discounts to go by bus to vote, only to those who had to go by train. According to my friend Darius, who lives in Romania, the Social Democrat Party’s (PSD) hard-core senior supporters threatened their grandchildren if they went out to vote.  The elderly nostalgia for communism included the PSD promise of higher pensions. It did not matter to them that the PSD leader, Liviu Dragnea, was a “convicted criminal.” “Dragnea appointed a Muslim woman as Prime Minister. President Klaus Johannis rejected his PM choice as her husband’s ties to Syria came to light.”

Twenty-seven years after the theoretical fall of communism, Romania still struggles with the scars left by decades of totalitarian rule under a brutal communist dictator. Lacking the Romanian version of the American dream, most people put in positions of power use their authority to enrich themselves and their friends because stealing was a way of survival under communism and it remains “glorified” today. People vote for corrupt and often uneducated leaders because they sell their votes for a disposable cell phone or a 15 euro bribe. Then they complain when nothing changes. Corruption is a way of life, including the expectation and acceptance of bribes.

Poor Romanians, who fell through the cracks of EU development funds, still live the same deprived lives. They may find more food but cannot afford it, nor are they able to bribe doctors under the socialized medical care system. Unable to afford private insurance premiums, such superior care remains a luxury service. Consequently, many die of treatable conditions while waiting their turn  in numerous lines to be seen by socialized medicine government doctors.

Communist rhetoric of equality and social justice entices and mesmerizes well-fed and clothed American millennials who are surrounded by wealth, food, proper medical care, good housing, transportation, college education paid by Pell grants, electronic gadgets, their Starbucks lattes, heating, cooling, clean streets, cars, and malls. They have no idea what communist life was and is like. Few visit Cuba, Venezuela, or North Korea to see how people actually live under communist oppression. Thoroughly brainwashed, millennials dismiss as propaganda all testimonials of those who had lived under communism, survived and escaped to the west.

As Eugene Lyons wrote in his 1937 book, Assignment to Utopia,  ”The Russian Revolution, in March, 1917, was, for most of the boys in my college freshman classes, just one more headline in a time replete with startling news.” They understood it as the initial stage of the world revolution, the fight against capitalists in America, the very capitalism that gave new American arrivals an opportunity to a better life.

“Anarchists, socialists, American lumberjacks, Jewish clothing workers, Russian intellectuals, Italian terrorists, Hindu nationalists, even liberals with creases in their pants and Harvard accents” were part of the radical movements during Eugene Lyon’s youth.

Not unlike today, the rabid anarchists of the turn of the twentieth century were brainwashed in college and on the streets to fight against the “capitalist injustice.” Their simpler motives were greed and envy. The sweat shops of the have nots and the opulence of the haves were infuriating the anarchists, many of whom were either coming from a working class background or were well off and ashamed of their creature comforts, yet were unwilling to give them up.

The shackles binding the people of the world to oppression were the shackles fashioned by communist revolutionaries and Bolsheviks who had a huge following of college-age anarchists. Crafty and sly, the commies sugar-coated empty and deceptive promises of egalitarian utopia, passing on clever euphemisms to new generations, including today’s oblivious global citizen youth who have no clue what they are dreaming of and demanding in their #resist demonstrations and riots.

Venezuela Ran out of Other People's Money

Venezuelans rejected socialism. They’ve run out of other people’s money; the long lines to buy basic food and toilet paper did not help either. The main stream media has glossed over this massive defeat of President Nicolas Maduro’s socialism.  In a great St. Nick gift, his opposition took back control of the National Assembly in a landslide election on December 6, 2015.

According to the National Electoral Council, the Democratic Unity coalition won 99 of the 167 seats in the National Assembly, a legislative majority, while the ruling United Socialist Party of Venezuela won 46 seats.  If the opposition wins 13 of the 22 remaining races, it will gain a two-thirds supermajority, possibly running a referendum to get rid of Maduro before his term expires in 2019. A simple majority could amnesty all political prisoners.

Of the 19 million registered voters, 74 percent showed up to cast their ballots, a huge turnout, a sign that people have grown weary and tired of sixteen years of Hugo Chavez’s style socialism that brought Venezuela to the brink of destruction.  

USA Today quoted Minerva Lopez, a seamstress from Caracas, who said, “What a relief. The nightmare is ending.” But is it? The opposition has a hard road ahead to undo sixteen years of economically destructive policies. www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2015/12/05/venezuela-election-national-assembly-maduro-voting/76883170

The opposition leader is Henrique Capriles, the governor of the state of Miranda. After Hugo Chavez died, a special presidential election was held in April 2013 when Capriles lost to Maduro, a successor picked and approved by Chavez.  Maduro is a former bus driver. In socialism credentials and expertise are not necessary to run a country; one needs to be faithful to the socialist party line even though it may drag the country into economic abyss.

Capriles promised to rein in the political corruption. Because “The government has used state funds to finance their campaigns,” he promised to make changes “legally, constitutionally, and peacefully.”

Even though Venezuela has one of the largest oil reserves, the mismanagement of the socialist economy and of the monetary policy has translated into an inflation rate of 150 percent. As crude prices have dropped around the world, Venezuelan oil revenues have declined considerably, causing a sizable contraction of the economy.

Maduro had supported Hugo Chavez’s legacy of “Chavismo,” an anti-capitalist system centered on keeping the poor pacified with more welfare, promises of higher pensions, scholarships, and public housing, Chavez and his ruling elites amassed billions in ill-gotten wealth. Chavez stayed in power by bringing in free sub-standard health care from Cuba for the poor and by making promises of perennial dependency on the socialist government.  And that is not all that Chavez brought from Cuba. “Venezuela has promised 100,000 barrels of oil per day to Cuba, and in exchange Cuban intelligence runs the Venezuelan state security apparatus.”  http://bwcentral.org/?p=25545

Once the money dwindled due to reduced oil revenues, the generous handouts soured and the economy tanked.

Opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez warned, “The world needs to know that the abuses of Venezuela’s government have put us on a path toward economic collapse and social devastation, with implications that will spread beyond our borders.” http://bwcentral.org/?p=26797

Standing in huge lines for hours to buy food and rationing by fingerprint were just some of the indignities the citizens of socialist Venezuela had to endure.

“Patricia Gamboa arrived at a government-run supermarket in western Venezuela at 2:00 am, six hours before doors opened, to be first in line and buy whatever she could get her hands on.  As dawn broke, about 200 people stood behind her outside the Bicentenario shop in San Cristobal, with numbers written on their wrists with green markers to avoid arguments over who came first.” http://bwcentral.org/?p=26019

The Chicago Tribune wrote on April 11, 2014, “Crisis in Venezuela: Too much crime, not enough toilet paper.” People could not find enough milk, cooking oil, sugar, flour, coffee, cornmeal, and toilet paper.  Hoarding became a crime in Venezuela and people received an electronic identification card with their fingerprints. These cards alerted the authorities when people tried to buy more than they were allowed by government decree.

The socialist government blamed their inadequacy on the greedy capitalists who allegedly drove up prices. Farmers and store owners blamed the socialist government price controls that forced them to sell below cost.

Chavez was worshipped by the poor because he spent billions from the huge oil revenues (when prices of crude were high) on government subsidies, controlled food and gas prices, and nationalized farms and small businesses that “supposedly were not keeping up with production. He even awarded a free government-built home to his 3 millionth follower on Twitter.”

I understand the indignity of socialist mismanagement of the economy well. Centralized planning forced us to stand in food lines all the time to survive in Ceausescu’s Romania. This uneducated cobbler with grandiose aspirations imposed on his people a socialist/communist nightmare that lasted 44 years before people finally said “enough.”

A centralized socialist government always blamed their disastrous and ever-failing economic policies on greedy capitalists and on business “profiteers.” Socialists eventually ran out of other people’s money and wealth. They silenced in the process any opposition and critics if they dared speak out against the collectivist philosophy, the elites like Chavez, and the “useful idiots” who understood just enough to be dangerous.
