A recent memorandum analyzed the tactics the Left are using to maintain power across the West:
This is not politics as usual but rather political warfare at an unprecedented level that is openly engaged in the direct targeting of a seated president through manipulation of the news cycle. It must be recognized on its own terms so that immediate action can be taken. At its core, these campaigns run on multiple lines of effort, serve as the non-violent line of effort of a wider movement, and execute political warfare agendas that reflect cultural Marxist outcomes. The campaigns operate through narratives.
Because the hard left is aligned with lslamist organizations at local (ANTIFA working with Muslim Brotherhood doing business as MSA and CAIR), national (ACLU and BLM working with CAIRand MPAC) and international levels (OIC working with OSCEand the UN), recognition must given to the fact that they seamlessly interoperate at the narrative level as well.
The important idea here: the Left coordinates across disciplines with the same narrative, which means that they are emulating whoever seems to be making the biggest waves at the time.
Past Leftist efforts at coordinating, like JournoList, required direct communication.
Present techniques more resemble the Tammany/Pendergast type of political machine that operates entirely informally and spreads its tropes through people imitating what those in power have said recently.
Culturally conditioned to limit responses to such attacks as yet another round in the on-going drone from diversity and multicultural malcontents, these broadsides are discounted as political correctness run amuck. However, political correctness is a weapon against reason and critical thinking. This weapon functions as the enforcement mechanism of diversity narratives that seek to implement cultural Marxism.
This overthinks the situation. Marxism is just a variant of Leftism and behaves like the rest of them. Its goal was always to find some goal that could not be criticized in a social context, and to use that to bludgeon everyone else into conformity.
Leftists found their golden idol in equality, since this addresses fears with a Utopian vision of how those fears could not exist. Everyone fears losing fear or being seen as weaker or less socially desirable.
In the Leftist view, equality means Utopia, and therefore only bad people can oppose this, which means that the only thing standing in the way of your perfect society is these bad people.
Even more, the goal and the method are the same. They want to achieve equality by using equality and as a result, they can never have some stop point. The goal will always be more equality no matter how much they have.
In this way, the standard Leftist outlook consists of a talisman/idol (equality) and a scapegoat (inequality) which gives it moral license to do whatever it deemes necessary to achieve the former by destroying the latter.
While opposition to President Trump manifests itself through political warfare memes centered on cultural Marxist narratives, this hardly means that opposition is limited to Marxists as conventionally understood. Having become the dominant cultural meme, some benefit from it while others are captured by it; including “deep state” actors, globalists, bankers, lslamists, and establishment Republicans.
All political machines operate this way: by demanding equality and free stuff, they set up a situation where everyone is impoverished and therefore, they all need the machine.
Those who benefit from this system are those who have become vested in it. This includes establishment Republicans, since they view politics as a career and therefore prioritize compromise over effectiveness.
More afraid of being accused of being called a racist, sexist, homophobe or lslamophobe than of failing to enforce their oaths to “support and defend the Constitution,” the Republican Establishment accepts and enforces cultural Marxist memes within its own sphere of operations. In doing so, knowingly or not, it becomes an agent of that. These “conservatives” become increasingly indistinguishable from their democratic counterparts save that they misrepresent themselves to their constituents.
The change described above happened in the 1960s when conservatives accepted equality and, as a result, decided to eschew mention of biological/genetic differences between individuals, social classes, and ethnic or racial groups.
If they seem indistinguishable from Democrats, it is because they are essentially Democrats who also believe in a few things like strong defense, free markets, Jesus/Israel, and individual morality.
Democrats are fine with those things as long as they can be used to further the Leftist objective, which they have been.
Political warfare is one of the five components of a Maoist insurgency. Maoist methodologies employ synchronized violent and non-violent actions that focus on mobilization of individuals and groups to action. This approach envisions the direct use of non-violent operational arts and tactics as elements of combat power. In Maoist insurgencies, the formation of a counter-state is essential to seizing state power. Functioning as a hostile competing state acting within an existing state, it has an alternate infrastructure. Political warfare operates as one of the activities of the “counter-state” and is primarily focused on the resourcing and mobilization of the counter state or the exhaustion and demobilization of the targeted political movement.
We saw this long before Mao. Whenever the Peasant Revolts or French Revolution were ramping up, communes broke out with alternate structures that rewarded people for being good Leftists, funded by neurotic wealthy middle class people who wanted to feel that they were making their mark on society.
The point of the alternate infrastructure is to thoroughly indoctrinate people but also to become their means of support, giving them no option but victory. If they fail, their lives are destroyed.
As used in this discussion, cultural Marxism relates to programs and activities that arise out of Gramsci[an] Marxism, Fabian Socialism and most directly from the Frankfurt School.
This gives too much credit to the postmodern Left. They are doing what Leftists have always done: mobilize to take over society in pursuit of their Utopia which no one can criticize.
The speech codes they use show us a tactic dating back to the dawn of humanity. You cannot say what offends others because it hits their weak spots. Leftists just figured out how to make a group identify with its fear of social loss of face.
Their desire to take over culture comes from the urge to form a group that, in order to protect its sacred illusions, excludes all others.
Scapegoating serves the same purpose that Satanic figures do in all religions, namely to externalize their fears of their own behavior so that the group identifies with the opposite.
There is nothing new here; this is a pathology like Crowdism that exists in all human groups that organize by socializing instead of logical and realistic approaches.
In this sense, making Marxism and Maoism seem exceptional will backfire on conservatives. We are seeing age-old human behavior formed of the lowest common denominator of a group made into an ideology of fear, a.k.a. Leftism.
As cultural Marxist narratives intensify, they are to be further operationalized in the form of hate speech narratives. Hate speech narratives are non-random, coordinated, and fully interoperable escalations of cultural Marxist memes.
The French Revolutionaries similarly executed people who were critical of the workers or the new State.
While beyond the actual scope of this document, the benefactors of these political movements include; Urban Real Estate who depend greatly on immigrant tenants, International Banking who seeks to maintain US debtor status so as to control the application of American power, and elements of the business sector that depend upon immigrant labor or government infrastructure. The overall objective of these economic forces is the forced urbanization of the populace, thereby necessitating a larger, more powerful government.
We fought the Civil War over similar motivations: the North wanted urbanization, where the South wanted to remain agricultural and avoid the crushing debt burden of the cities.
In the same way, in ancient Greece, the big cities pushed for democratization where in the productive outlying areas people tended to prefer traditional forms of leadership.
The administration has been maneuvered into a constant backpedal by relentless political warfare attacks structured to force him to assume a reactive posture that assures inadequate responses.
This too shows us the soul of Leftism. They attack conservatives for having no new ideas when the essence of conservatism is preserving what is known to work instead of venturing off on theoretical jaunts adopted as policy instead of experiment.
As humanity ventures into the next phase of our evolution, it becomes clear that we are confronting weaponized collectivized individualism and can resist it only by being even more clear in our pursuit of realism and quality of life experience.
