Staring back from the abyss |
Nothing that most of us don't already know, but it's good to be reminded from time to time. https://www.americanthinker.co..._destroy_the_us.html Why Are Communists Determined to Destroy the US? By Bruce Deitrick Price To fight pornography in the schools, a Texas housewife recently appeared at a school board meeting. She lectured the officials: "I do not want my children to learn about anal sex in middle school. ... I want you to start focusing on education, not public health." Education, as we'll see, is the first refuge of scoundrels. Do you imagine that this school board is hip and cutting-edge? In fact, liberals have had few new ideas in more than a century. During World War 1, the communist government of Hungary "imposed a system of pornographic sex education on Hungarian school pupils." Ever since, communists have tried the same pervy tricks again and again. During World War 1, the deputy people's commissar for culture and education was an extreme Marxist named György Lukács, then considered the most brilliant communist since Marx himself. He advocated promiscuity, denounced the family, and encouraged children to mock their parents and religion. The question Lukács posed was, "Who will save us from Western civilization?" Marxist theory circa 1900 said that if Europe ever erupted in war, the working classes in every European country would rise in revolt and create a new communist Europe. Instead, the workers in every country lined up by the millions to fight their country's enemies. Why is Marxist theory incorrect? Two leading Marxist intellectuals, Antonio Gramsci in Italy and Lukács in Hungary, independently came up with the same answer. They said that Western culture and the Christian religion had so blinded the working class to its true, Marxist class interests, that a communist revolution was impossible in the West until both could be destroyed. That objective, established as cultural Marxism's goal at the beginning, has never changed. When WW1 was over, Marxists set about devising strategies specifically aimed at conquering Western civilization, which is still their main obsession. In 1918, Lukács continued refining what he called "cultural terrorism." One component was to create sexual education courses in schools that would work to distort traditional sexual morality. "He came to the conclusion that if sexual morals could be compromised and undermined when Christians were still children, then Christianity itself could be destroyed." Always remember that Marx had predicted inevitable communist revolution caused by economic factors. Now it turns out that, as a first step, the revolutionaries have to dismantle the entire Christian revolution. Bottom line, this new Marxism had little resemblance to the older Marxism except a hatred for everything that disagreed with them. Lukács concluded that in order to get people to accept communism, the people would need to be culturally aligned with atheism, the irrelevance of the family, the acceptance of diversity, and the tolerance of multiculturalism. In order to achieve this, he would need to undermine the Christian family structure by promoting teenage promiscuity, teenage rebellion, and arrested development. During 1919, he set plans in motion to de-Christianize Hungary with a program of "non-judgmental tolerance." He reasoned that if Christian sexual ethics could be undermined among children, then both the hated patriarchal family and the church would be dealt a crippling blow. To achieve his objective, Lukács launched a radical sex education program in the schools. Sex lectures were organized and literature handed out that graphically instructed youth in free love and sexual intercourse, while simultaneously encouraging them to deride and reject Christian ethics, monogamy, and parental and church authority. All of this was accompanied by a reign of cultural terror perpetrated against parents, priests, and dissenters. And all of this happened about 104 years ago. In 1923, Lukács founded the Institute for Marxism at Frankfurt University in Weimar Germany along with fellow Marxists Herbert Marcuse and Theodor Adorno. Cultural Marxists came to realize that their true intentions would be better concealed if they changed the name to the Institute of Social Research, which is popularly referred to as the Frankfurt School. Its primary goal was to translate Marxism from economic terms to cultural terms, or Freudian terms. It would use multidisciplinary methods to indoctrinate and manufacture new groups of oppressed proletarians such as homosexuals and transsexuals. The intellectuals tinkered and revised, but the new theories failed. They reinvented Marxism on the fly, until it was nothing that Marx would recognize. Their broad strategy came down to this desperate gambit: any time they encountered something honest and decent, they tried to undermine it with something sacrilegious or shocking. After 1932, as Stalin hammered down on his masses and the Nazis became more threatening, the Bolsheviks in Germany fled to safety in the United States. Many of the big names ended up in American universities, where they plotted how to destroy traditional views. Pick a fad of the last hundred years, and you will find the influence of Lukács and Gramsci, with some modification by Max Horkheimer, Theodor Adorno, Wilhelm Reich, Herbert Marcuse, Walter Benjamin, and Eric Fromm. (Short history of modern Marxism.) The big point is, Marxist intellectuals pretend to seek truth and wisdom. Nonsense. For them, politics is war. They are seeking your weak spots so they can destroy you. As a result, communism is everywhere in our society, attacking, attacking, attacking. A few decades back, communism operated under the title "political correctness." Now it maneuvers under the title "woke." One thing every school should inaugurate is Communism Studies . These fanatics never take a day off. They won't be happy until you're unhappy. Mark Levin summarized the saga best: "Democrats are hellbent on destroying our country." ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil."

Communism is a religion. One of the characteristics of organized religions is that they seek to supplant alternative beliefs, and convert all to their philosophy. Christianity is not immune from this trait, although it is more tolerant than many, especially in its Western sects. Of course, they are doing so for the benefit of those they are attempting to convert to their ideology. This is what justifies the "any tactic is acceptable" mindset. Many many wars, some of the most savage, have been fought over (sometimes minuscule) differences in theology. The ongoing Communism vs. Western culture is no different, and the sooner this is widely recognized, the more likely it is that Western culture will prevail. | |||

Unfortunately, the dirty assed commies are quite good at the "long game" and willing to make incremental gains over decades. On the conservative side, we unfortunately have too many who want a both a perfect fix and to win back all lost territory in a single swoop. If they don't get both, they take their ball and go home. The commies have gained so much ground in education, the media, the courts, entertainment, art, culture, open boarders, feminization of men, etc. that us conservatives really need to start adopting incrementalism to win back lost territory. Try to win back hearts and minds over decades not one single swoop.

^^^ Getting conservative justices into SCOTUS and gaining the majority was an incremental process, and now we are seeing positive effects. Hopefully none of the conservative justices will have to be replaced until a republican is back in the presidency. | |||

Absolutely. If you have any doubt, watch this video from a Communist defector. | |||

I really don't believe idealistic communists are the ones truly behind the silent takeover of our country. They are the useful idiots of a relatively small group of super rich Globalists Bankers and Technocrats that are funding these idiots. These Globalists don't give a fuck about ideology. Their only motive is wealth and power.

The implementation of communism always requires chaos. Once chaos reigns, the public will demand order. A communist dictatorship does just that. This pattern has been repeated at least throughout the 20th century. Yes, there are many useful idiots, but the communist party has been working to destroy the US for over 100 years. Yes, there are communist idealists in Hollywood, education, politics, and the media. Heck, the New York Times defended Stalin when he was killing millions of his own people. | |||

I think it’s because communism as a principle is seductive to the theoretician. In practice it fails so it can’t bear the scrutiny of comparison. It cannot stand without compulsion and cannot compete with true capitalism. So capitalism must be eliminated by force or subversion. It get polluted and perverted then redefined by those mutations until no one knows what true capitalism is anymore and since few enjoy its bounty by virtue of its mutated state, communism’s principle sweeps in to pick up the pieces. But true capitalism - the voluntary equitable transfer of value between parties- is the most natural, productive and liberating economy in history. You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldier | |||

A scorpion asks a frog to carry him across a river on its back. The frog hesitates out of fear that the scorpion will sting him. The scorpion argues that if he stings the frog in the middle of the river, they will both drown, so it wouldn’t make sense for him to do so. The frog agrees and allows the scorpion on its back. Halfway across the river, however, the scorpion does indeed sting the frog. As they are both about to drown, the frog asks why the scorpion stung him when it would mean his demise as well. The scorpion replies “It’s my nature.” | |||

Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do. |

Israel for the most part is communist/marxist. Yes they're democratic but they live under oppressive rules and taxation. The Israelis are fascinated with the freedoms we enjoy here. The ONLY reason the left hates Israel is because Israel hasn't allowed the "palestinians" to just destroy a successful Jewish state and pillage all it's resources. He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. | |||

Have you been there? I suppose the devil is in the details, and seeing it from an American perspective for a few weeks is far different from living there full time, but other than not being able to bring a handgun with me, I wouldn't have known if I was there or here. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil."

Are there any Communist Islamics? I'd like to see THEM fight it out. Oh, hold on, are they doing that in South Yemen? | |||

Optimistic Cynic |
I suspect that both the Commies and the Islamists regard each other the same way, as useful idiots who can be used to advance their agenda. As soon as one or the other starts to get the uppper hand, they will come into conflict (as has happened multiple times already most notably in Africa). | |||

Good article. The Frankfurt School has been at this for a long time, and having a great deal of success. At least more people are learning about what they are doing. Thanks for posting the reminder. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||
