When we see the world through a lens of objective reality, meaning to put it in more recognizable terms, "It is what it is!", we also understand that everything is ruled by the forces of cause and effect. There will always be anomalies of course because creation on any scale is a messy business, things get clipped, erased, added to and all of that impacts everything else because creation is a cause like a great work of art. Someone poured their soul into that work of art which is what makes it great, and the effects of that creation can be endless spread over generations of people. It can be seen as good or evil at the same time by different groups of people as well as individuals.
As with that great work of art that captures people's minds in many different ways an ideology is a creation, a cause and it can come with some devastating effects or be the cause of a great uplifting of people from poverty, misery and suffering such as free market capitalism has. Which brings us around to the primary focus of this scribble, Marxism, and all of its bastard children, socialism, "communism" and yes even fascism because it too got its inspiration from Marxism and its conflict theory. They are all totalitarian in nature so at their core they are the same ideology however also having vastly different methodologies to accomplish the same goal, world domination, the enslavement of mankind under an elite ruling class. You know, the way it was before Western Philosophy and the free market.
So, going forward the word "Marxism" will encompass all totalitarian ideologies because it is all of their foundation after all.* And of course we cannot analyze "Marxism" without also analyzing and comparing it to its antithesis which for our purposes will simply be called "Freedom" because if we get down to the brass tacks, down under all of the noise we can see that there are only two choices for humanity, freedom, or enslavement (oppression).
The choice is ours and so are the consequences that come with that choice. That choice is our focus or more specifically why we make it.
Before we get to it all of my content be it video, written or otherwise is for educational/informational purposes only. It's just something to think about guys.
Karl Marx and Friedrich Engles
Marx and Engles are of course considered the "Fathers" of Marxism and after studying their work I have never thought that they were by definition evil men. I do not believe that their intention was to create what we see as Marxism today. "Communism" for instance, I always get asked why I put communism in air quotes. It is because Communism as described by Marx himself does not exist, it never has existed, and it never will exist because of what I see as the fatal flaw in Marx's theory that has led to all of these effects that have spread horror and death all across the globe, he thought that human nature could be changed with enough psychological manipulation or even force.
Now, that last word, force, whether implied or said outright is how we ended up with the Neo-Marxists, or the "New Marxists" who brought us the concepts of post-modernism and cultural Marxism that has led to all of the unrest and chaos we have globally today. I don't necessarily blame Marx and Engles for all of this because they were the creators of the ideology, the architects. The people who came later and read his work, perverted it to support their own vision are the people I blame. Marx and Engles may very well be the cause, but they are not the ones responsible for the effects their ideology caused many years after their own deaths. People did that. People like Stalin, Lenin, Mao, Hitler, Pol Pot... the list is long and bloody, but they all began with a desire to rule the world, or as much of it as possible. That delusion was the step too far into the insanity that eventually consumed them all resulting in their downfall.
However, we are going to go deeper, the "leader" is not the one who makes their vision come true, it is their "followers" that do all of the work, because without them to manipulate the Marxist has no power, they are impotent. Marxism itself is an ideology but what draws people to Marxism when its entire history is written in the blood of innocent people? That is what we are going to explore, the psychology behind that decision and it is my theory that the phantom behind that can be found in our Indvidual mentalities that when combined with enough other people it becomes a movement, and then a societal mentality resulting in the riots we are seeing everywhere in our streets today.
I will try to keep this pithy, but we need some context thrown in here that is kind of vital to understanding everything. The world today, is nothing like the world was in Marx and Engles time. Their entire ideology is based on what they saw in the world around them AT THE TIME. This is in my opinion a fatal flaw in the Marxist mentality as well. They view the world as a snapshot and believe that this is how it is always going to be. The important thing though is not what is in the picture but who took it, who gave it to them, and why. What are that person's intentions when telling the story behind the snapshot? For instance, Marxism. Marx and Engles took a snapshot of how they saw the world and it was bad. They lived during the end of the transition period from feudalism into the western philosophies of individual freedoms, inalienable rights and protections from the elites who had previously enslaved them under Manorialism. To say it was a very tumultuous time would be an understatement, it was chaos, poverty, disease and crime ruled the cities ghettos, and the poor blamed the rich for their suffering. This was the fertile ground Marx and Engles planted the seeds of their "conflict theory" within, a snapshot of a world turned upside down due to the introduction of free market capitalism and individual liberty to control one's own life.
This is where the "neo-Marxists" come in. They picked up Marx and Engles "snapshot" of THEIR world and never thought further than what it said and immediately started trying to apply it to their world. This is the reason we have all of this civil unrest and chaos in our streets. In today's societies since the full implementation of the free market and western philosophy all of the chaos and mind-numbing misery of Marx and Engles time simply does not exist anymore. All things considered we everyday Joes and Janes got along pretty well with each other because we minded our own business and respected each other's boundaries, simple.
However, that is a major problem for an ideology that is based on conflict so the only option they have if they want to pursue their goal is to create the conflict and chaos themselves, took them a while but wha-la we have the modern-day world filled with chaos and conflict.
The cause was the neo-Marxists new version of Marxism focused entirely on the conflict theory meaning the only way they believe they can get what they want is through violent revolution and the effects... well, just take a look around you.
Another known and well documented methodology of Marxists is found in who they recruit to be their shield against those of us who know what they are and will try to stop them. Now we get to the bones, mentality, what is it, what does that mean? Well, LET'S GO!
Simply put it is our way of thinking, our mindset towards things. For our purposes we are going to focus on the mindset that is all but synonymous with Marxism's recruitment parameters, the victim mentality and of course its antithesis, the empowerment mentality. In our context as with freedom or oppression being our only options these are also our only two options, you can only straddle the fence for so long, eventually you will have to choose who you are going to be.
I can use myself as an example for both, because believe me, I was not born this way, I had my "Red Pill" moment too.
I do not ever have to worry about getting caught lying for instance because I don't do things that I would need to lie about. That is pretty much my mentality in a nutshell right there. I take full responsibility for my words and actions which is why both are well thought through before they happen. It all begins and ends with me, my decisions, my choices, my consequences to deal with, no one else's and I would not have it any other way, no one else is to blame for my successes or failures but me. Before my red pill moment well, I was the exact opposite of what I am now. This is an empowerment mentality, taking control of your own life all the way down to the very choices we make as individuals.
You may think you already are but if you take some time to think about it most of our daily decisions are automatic, routine so we don't really think about them as we are making them, we just keep making the same one over and over again because it is what we are conditioned to do, go with the flow, follow the routine, stay in line, don't question just follow the bouncing ball! It all starts the moment we hit public school, and we carry it throughout our lives. But unfortunately for the Marxists, not all of us got programmed. We are the "incorrigibles", the "troublemakers" who challenged authority and the public schools were quick to put that on our "permanent record" to stigmatize us as "problematic" for future reference.
And then of course we have our counterparts who practice a victim mentality. I say practice because it is a choice as I have said and as I and many, many others have done, we can change it any time we choose to, hopefully to a better one. I don't think I need to go too far into the victim mentality because in today's world you are either practicing it or watching others practice it shaking your head wondering what the hell is wrong with these people?
The reason people such as I are immune to the seductions of Marxism is not because we are magic, or superior in some way, it is our mentality which is heavily influenced by our own God given commonsense. And of course, a lot of knowledge most people don't bother to learn because it takes too much effort or time out of their day. But they are more than happy to go out and regurgitate the propaganda all over our streets while committing crimes and acts of violence.
We are all hosts to both good and evil. Though these two forces existed before we humans did, WE, human beings are the only entities capable of COMMITTING acts of good and evil and that is a choice that comes with consequences we have no one else to blame for but ourselves because we and we alone made that choice.
That is my mentality, and it is antithetical to the Marxist ideology that is based on blaming someone else for your failures, victimhood, that mentality belongs to those drawn to Marxism. The belief system of Marxism also excludes God, the state is God and our lives are at their whim. I call that evil because that is what anything that is not of God is, evil by definition.
I stand on the side of good, I stand with Jesus Christ and do my very best to follow Gods word which makes people like me the worst kind of enemy for Marxism, I stand against everything they stand for on a moral as well as logical context. I stand against it as a human being. So, where do you stand, what is your mentality, do you even know? Maybe you should take the time to really figure that out.
Something to think about, until next time. ~Ghost
