Obviously I don’t do activism because I’m not American; I explain and have no affiliations to anyone or anything. I was reading RP and people like him long before it became fashionable to do so and in my wanderings have lived and worked in societies led by replica Obama and Trump characters. So, as a starter let me summarize where it all went wrong.
Once upon a time a man called Marx discovered something unique; that you could convince a population they’d share in a country’s wealth by believing politicians. In an age of monarchies and absolute destitution this wasn’t difficult, it caught on and the Soviet Union was born.
A few years later, the Second International (Comintern) in 1922 sought to answer a question. If communism was so perfect, why weren’t European workers clamouring for it? The leading Marxist intellectuals of that era Hungarian György Lukács and Italian Antonio Gramsci set out to find the answer. On his return to Italy Gramsci was promptly arrested by Mussolini and put in prison as a danger to society, from where he wrote his famous (1929 – 1935) 'Prison notebooks.' Gramsci discovered where Marx had gone wrong, it wasn’t about class, but culture and cultural Marxism was born. Gramsci’s ‘Prison notebooks’ faded into obscurity. Post war Europe boomed, Reagan and Thatcher stopped the moves towards communism and it wasn’t until the 90s that the hard left re-discovered Gramsci.
Many people in America have difficulty understanding the term 'cultural Marxism', so let’s use a term you’re familiar with - Identity politics. The new catalyst for the revolution became the minorities; the immigrants, the homosexuals, the feminists, the criminals … Gramsci realized that the way to the revolution was to demolish the traditional values of society, the main three being the breakdown of national identity (multiculturalism), introduce a plurality of religions (diversity) and destroy family values using feminism and the homosexual agenda (equality).
What is termed 'The quiet revolution' began in Europe and spread to America. This entailed taking over the institutions and was a huge success. Bernie Sanders is not a socialist, he’s a Maoist. Hillary Clinton disguised as a Democrat is actually a radical Alinsky anarchist and Obama who brought you identity politics is about as American as a Chinese Mums apple pie! Their combined commonality is progressivism, a benevolent authoritarianism. But how did they change society? Colleges became Marxist centres of learning. Antifa became the latter day Red Guard and the BLM KGB took it upon itself to determine who was a racist or Nazi. The Internet began to provide information of European Union leaders who were in touch with aliens from outer space and in America, Satanic orgies in the basement of the White House and courtesy of Mr. Icke, we now know that shape shifting reptiles roam the earth …
There are two types of thought. The first is based on beliefs; subjective thoughts in which there exists no right or wrong and so reality becomes whatever one wishes it to be. The second is based around reality and facts. Neither can disprove the other and would be similar to trying to discuss a maths question using English grammar.
Into this belief system came Obama, marketed as a returning Messiah. Pelosi once famously remarked, "Economists agree that unemployment benefits remain one of the best ways to grow the economy in a very immediate way." Not to be outdone in subjective stupidity, Hillary replied that, "Let’s be clear: Islam is not our adversary. Muslims are peaceful and tolerant people and have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism." Islam by the way is not a religion, it’s a 7th century ideology based on conquest and submission.
And just when you thought it was all over … Along comes another Messiah, an extreme narcissist and arguably a sociopath named Mr. Trump who informs another set of believers that Mexico will pay for a wall, Hillary Clinton will be prosecuted and he alone will, "make America rich again."
The reason Ron Paul and those like him sound so odd to many is that he’s trying to re-introduce reality back into a new age belief fixated society. I’ve lived through the collapse of the British Empire and the Soviet Union. I’ve also seen Russia and China abandon their previous nonsense and surge ahead, while the west regresses back to building socialist utopias. You are now witnessing a decline in a divided society in which Lincoln warned you that America will only be destroyed from within. Let’s see what response I get to this.
